Bartlett Right Almost All The Way

I don't know Bruce Bartlett well. His resume doesn't put him in places I'm comfortable with - Reagan, Bush Sr, but I absolutely agree with ALMOST every single word of this article. People who know me have essentially heard this article practically verbatim for a while now.

I disagree that Obama would make a good VP for Hillary. It's just asking too much of this racist, sexist, backwards-assed country to elect a woman and an African American in the same year.

My wish for Hillary's VP is Bill Nelson. Help deliver Florida.

To elaborate on why Obama shouldn't be anyone's VP. Vice Presidents are always forced to run on the record of their predecessor. Obama is too fresh, too new, too many other things that Biden should've said instead of what he did. The man (Obama) needs to have his own platform, not run on someone elses.

Welcome!

In attempting to explain his suicidal interview with the Observer Joe Biden offered that his use of the word "clean" to describe Barak Obama came from an expression his mother used, "Clean as a whistle, sharp as a tack."

Not only does this explanation not in any way differ from the conventional use of the word "clean" but it also leaves us with a stated presidential candidate who when caught in a gaff, blamed his mother!

What's next for candidate Biden? A discussion on the evils of apple pie? Perhaps a rousing flag burning?

It's a shame, I love the way Biden governs. If only he didn't have to get elected (a lament true of so many democrats).
