Oh, Biden... you'll never be the nominee
Joe Biden spent some time with a reporter recently carping about his betters. I say betters because the man is pretty damn scummy. Yeah, a Democrat who voted for the Bankruptcy bill is pretty low and Joe's been voting with Republicans against the middle class for years.
He takes time to tear into Edwards, Obama, and Clinton while eating soup. Because that's what old men have for lunch. I happen to think he's nailed it on Obama though it doesn't make me happy to acknowledge he's correct on anything. Clinton, less so and with Edwards it's just jealousy. Biden's plan to partition Iraq is receiving no traction and likely won't (things have spun too far out of control). Pulling back troops is the one thing we can do to force the Iraqis to step up and start beating the radicals themselves... we can't do it for them. We could dump 1,000,000 troops into Iraq and it wouldn't do anything other than polarize all Iraqi's against us.
As for his comment that Iraq will descend into chaos with 40,000 less US troops, the Senator must not be aware that things are pretty chaotic now anyway. Maybe senility has already set in to join the mindnumbing stupidity that has apparently been there since the 1980s.
Biden represents some of the darker aspects of the Democratic party, specifically a failed past (think more DLC and less FDR). Let's not forget that he's been around for what, 30 years? Maybe the people of Delaware would be better served with a new Senator. The man is nothing more than a sellout. Joe Biden is a proof of just how false 'The worst Democrats is better than the best Republican' has become.
