I agree with Cali. Sarah brings nothing to the ticket. I think her selection is likely to piss off the disaffected Hillary supporters more than anything. Certainly doesn't do much to draw them in. And sure, the evangelicals love her, but they won't vote for Obama anyway.

I noticed it, but I didn't want to embarrass you by pointing out a joke that was about as original as Carlos Mencia.

He would be very happy to meet with you to discuss further.

Why don't you meet him in his hotel room and stand by that chair right over there....

hasn't Biden had 3 failed Presidential runs, none of the particularly respectable type?

I don't think Biden was a good choice. It's not my field, but I think he was a terrible choice for many reasons. I also think his glibness will eventually get them into trouble. I've never found him entertaining.

Biden couldn't get past Dukakis in '88.

As SU would say, speaks volumes.

Touche. Nice teasing response to the inherent pro-Romney bias around here, even Cali. Good for 3D and MW for not just automatically supporting Romeny because he's conservative and a Mormon.
