I'm blogging via phone because I just can't hold this in: Obama picking longtime DC insider, speech plagiarizer, and lifetime idiot Joe Biden is a gift for the Republican Party. Were I a campaign manager, the first thing I'd do is put Biden's name before Obama's on every ad. I'd air Biden's comments during the primaries calling Obama unfit for the presidency. I'd air every stupid thing Biden ha ever said during his 30 plus years in office. His flip flops, his use of other people's material, every dumb thing. I'd ask how anyone could possibly expect Washington to change with a lifetime party slug like Biden in the White House. I'd bind Biden and Pelosi and Obama together so tighly tose two leftists would hang like an albatross around Obama's neck: Their total inaction on ga prices and domestic energy production, their support for increased taxes, their rabid opposition to the Iraq war regardless of geopolitical reality and facts on the ground in Iraq. By picking Biden, Obama has revealed himself not to be a uniter but a partisan liberal divider. Biden is a gift for Republicans. I hope their campaign managers have the brains to see this and make the most of it. Let slip the dogs of war!!
