Reply #203: Okay, I'll Elaborate

1) The Repugnants can run commercials showing Biden attacking Obama when both were candidates for the Democratic Nominee, and use anti-Obama quotes that Biden likely said;
2) Biden has past plagiarism issues (though I concede these were some time ago, still, Rush & Co. will bring them up)
3) Biden does nothing to help win any toss-up state (Recall how LBJ secured the victory for JFK by putting Texas in the Dem column?)
4) Biden voted for the Iraq war, and now how is Obama going to attack McCain for doing the same?
5) Biden pisses off the base by voting for the credit card companies, campaign donations will now not be as high as they could have been
6) Biden has said some strange things at points
7) Biden doesn't seem to me to be a messenger for *change*
8) Now let me state that I AM DEFINITELY NOT ageist, but understand that some in the country may well be. And will Biden himself without a doubt feel like running for president after 2 Obama terms at the age of 73?
9) There were better candidates available. Clark especially, but also Richardson (who I don't think really attacked Obama much while a candidate), Senator Brown of Ohio, Sebelius, Kaine, etc.
