Obama vs. Biden
USS Neverdock — Hey, why don't we let Obama and Biden do a debate? So in the last 24 hours we have seen Joe Biden call an Obama campaign ad terrible and say it would never have happened if he had known about it; Barack Obama say Joe Biden should not have opposed the AIG bailout last week; and Joe Biden disagreeing with Obama’s position on clean coal and telling a voter (rather unpleasantly) that his view, not Obama’s, is the campaign’s position. Not a great sign from the guys who argue that running a campaign is a substitute for executive experience. Labels: Biden , Obama
