"again, i listened to the debate also..."

that again... also thing kind of got grating.

this will be an interesting election. the boomers are reaching retirement, though, and they want everyone else to fund their health care now that they've spent their life making sure they didn't fund anyone else's health care.

i think that's obama's trump card.

Obama picked Biden because he wanted dull, so the spotlight would remain on himself. Imagine if he picked Hillary, then he would look like the vice candidate. <g>

That being said, Biden was a pretty dull pick for Obama.

Odd why a candidate of "change", someone to clean up Washington, "no more business as usual", would choose a 35 year entrenched veteran of the Washington establishment he wants to clean up...
