Biden or bust?
So, I think that Biden will come up with some illness and have to withdraw from the race. Obama will, or may be trying to, get Hillary to be the VP. I think they see this as the only way to save their sinking ship. The question is, will Hillary sign on to be VP? I think she wants the top of the ticket and she will get the chance in 2012 if Obama loses. Just do not be supprised if he backs out for some reason. Let the pandering begin.

Biden, foreign what?
Sen. Joseph Biden, D-Del., the panel’s chairman, said the legislation is “not an attempt to embarrass the president. … It’s an attempt to save the president from making a significant mistake with regard to our policy in Iraq.”
…Biden, who sponsored the measure with Hagel and Sen. Carl Levin, D-Mich, chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, said the measure is aimed at getting the administration’s attention. He noted that Bush has said he will be moving forward with his Iraq plans he outlined in a Jan. 10 address regardless of what Congress says.
The measure “is designed to let the president know that there are many in both parties, Democrats and Republicans, that believe a change in our mission to go into Baghdad — in the midst of a civil war — as well as a surge in ground troops … is the wrong way to go, and I believe it will have the opposite — I repeat — opposite effect the president intends,” Biden said.
