I had a flash of insight about Barack Obama’s choice of Joe Biden for his VP. It really is a pretty smart choice for Obama because he picked one of the very few candidates among liberal Democrats who, when standing next to Obama, has the quality to make him look “Presidential.” Making Obama look presidential by comparison is a pretty neat feat, but IMHO Biden is one of the few who can pull off that difficult task. Well played O.
On the other hand, Rick Moran points out that by picking the underachieving Biden, Obama did McCain a huge favor in making his choice of VPs.
McCain's choice won't have to be a stretch. Just about anyone he chooses will stack up with the Delaware senator so no one can accuse him of picking someone less brilliant or less talented or with less "heft" than Biden.
