6 Things Biden Pick Says About Barack Obama

A response to JIM VANDEHEI & JOHN F. HARRIS of Politico.com and their pitiful screed, a portion of which appears below:

"6 things Palin pick says about McCain

The selection of a running mate is among the most consequential and the most defining decisions a presidential nominee can make. John McCain’s pick of Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin says a lot about his decision-making — and some of it is downright breathtaking.

We knew McCain is a politician who relishes improvisation and likes to go with his gut. But it is remarkable that someone who has repeatedly emphasized experience in this campaign named an inexperienced governor he barely knew to be his No. 2. Whatever you think of the pick, here are six things it tells us about McCain.

1. He’s desperate. Let’s stop pretending this race is as close as national polling suggests. The truth is McCain is essentially tied or trailing in every swing state that matters — and too close for comfort in several states, such as Indiana and Montana, that the GOP usually wins pretty easily in presidential races. On top of that, voters seem very inclined to elect Democrats in general this election — and very sick of the Bush years.
   
   McCain could easily lose in an electoral landslide. That is the private view of Democrats and Republicans alike..."

Yeah, yeah, blah, blah, blah...

Last week, Barack Obama made his long anticipated selection of who he believes would make a good vice-presidential running mate. He chose Joe Biden, the Democrat Senator from Delaware. "Plagiarizer Joe," as he is affectionately known, was a good, solid choice. He is far more qualified than Barack Obama to be President (as is McCain's choice for vice-president, Sarah Palin).

In fact, I would be far more comfortable if this election was between John McCain and Joe Biden rather than between John McCain and Barack Obama, as we would be facing a choice between two qualified candidates rather than one qualified candidate and one neophyte, still wet behind the ears, politician.

We would also be facing an election between two capitalists rather than one capitalist and one hardcore Marxist.

Well enough fantasy, it's time to examine the implications of Obama's choice.

1. He's desperate: At a time when every MSM pundit and all Democrats expected Obama to be up in the polls by double digits, he is either tied or slightly in the lead. Most Americans are beginning to have doubts about Obama's fitness to lead. He is a neophyte with less experience than any previous presidential candidat in history, in either party.
   
   He has never led any large organization, never run any governmental entity or business, and achieved nothing that would lead people to believe he was up to leading the greatest nation on Earth.
   
2. He's willing to gamble: Barack has chosen a man who very clearly believes he is not prepared to take on the burdens of the Presidency. Barack has also chosen a man who believes his opponent is more qualified for the Presidency than is Obama.
   
   Biden is a loaded gaff gun just waiting to go off. Such a choice exudes desperation on the part of the Annointed One.


3. He lacks "gravitas:" Barack Obama has no foreign policy experience, has never dealt with any crises, and in his first opportunity to respond to a "3:00 AM phone call moment," he choked. His first reaction was to call for an immediate meeting of the United Nations Security Council so they could pass a resolution calling for Russian troops to withdraw from the sovereign nation of Georgia.
   
   Apparently Barack Obama doesn't know that Russia is one of the five permanent members of the Security Council and would veto any such resolution.
   
   Obama is not ready for prime time.


4. He is worried about his image as an elitist: Joe Biden is everything Barack Obama isn't, down to Earth, working class, and patriotic.
   
   You will find no pictures of Joe Biden refusing to salute the flag. Joe Biden is the son of a blue collar guy, and rather than living insid the Washington Beltway, Biden commutes to his home in Delaware to be with his family...every day.
   
   No concern about the price of arugula there.


5. He's worried that he only appeals to Liberals and Blacks: Obama knows he must broaden his appeal to moderates and independents. He also needs someone on the ticket who knows how many states there are in the United States.


6. He's not his own man: It has been obvious for some time that Obama is being supported and run by those on the Left. He gets tremendous support from Goerge Soros front groups like Moveon.org.
   
   He is the figure head for a cabal of socialist/communist true believers who would see this nation destroyed in order to institute their own corrupt, utopian view of what America "should be," a nation in the thrall of special interest groups like the gay rights movement, the pro-abortion movement, the African American Elites of the NAACP, the Ivory Tower "Intelligencia" of academia, and the tin-hat brigade of "9-11 truthers" and America haters of dailyKos and the democraticunderground.
   
   The Biden pick gives him at least some semblance of being independent.

The American people are beginning to understand and doubt Barack in a way they have never before shown. The more information that comes out about "Barry Soeto," the more doubt grows.
Is he prepared for the Presidency? Is he qualified to govern this greatest of nations? Is he even legally qualified to stand for the office?

The courts will decide the last, as they examine Obama's birth records, but at least one lawyer and long time supporter of Hillary Clinton doesn't think so.

A presidential candidate's choices say a lot about how he will govern. Obama's decisions, so far, suggest he will govern as Jimmy Carter did...incompetently.

Long Live Our American Republic!!!!
