Yet in Washington this qualifies you to be a heart beat a way from serving as Commander-In-Chief.

So explain to me how Biden is going to tell Obama when he (Obama) is wrong when Biden was WRONG about one of the biggest debacles in U.S. history?

Mr. MBNA, who voted for a bankruptcy bill that screwed the middle class, represents change? I don't think so.

On edit: Biden pushed the bankruptcy bill b/c he is OWNED by the credit card companies. These companies engage in all types of unsavory practices. Have you ever listened to the testimony by credit card holders when they hold the hearings in Washington. It's very "enlightening."

Obama/Biden is not change I can believe in. It tells me that it will be business as usual in Washington D.C.

2. He's not going to be the VP. Obama isn't going to be the change candidate and pick a 30 yr Senator

4. How can progressives, moderates, or conservatives support a man

who has supported taking advantage of the middle class? Progressives, moderates, and conservatives have all been screwed by the bankruptcy bill.
