Sen Joe Biden

As rumors of Biden’s dismissal run wild on the Internet, one is no doubt asking “do these rumors have any substance to them?”  After all, Barack Obama could have made shock waves through modern American politics by choosing Hillary Clinton as his running mate.  Why did Barack not do this?  Simple: Hillary has exposed Obama numerous times.  But let’s stay on topic here: is there a chance Biden could be knocked off the ticket in favor of Hillary Clinton?  I would venture to say that there is almost zero chance of Biden being replaced by Clinton. However, if Barack had chose Hillary from the start, there would be almost zero chance for John McCain.  Why did Obama not choose Hillary?  Once again, a simple answer: because he is arrogant and cocky.  Sure, Hillary took many well-aimed shots at Obama over the course of her campaign, and there is no doubt that she raised some serious questions in his leadership, record, and ability to lead.  Obama thought that he had such a great chance at winning the 2008 presidential elections (see: Voter Issue Guide) that he did not need Hillary.  What a poor, poor decision that was.  Now with John McCain’s VP pick of a woman, Sarah Palin, more democratic woman than ever are flocking to Palin.  Despite famous women elitist celebrities backing Obama, such as Oprah, mainstream American women are leaning toward Palin.  Not only is Palin a “sexy woman”, but she has a beautiful family, a clean record, electability, and the sassy fight that women want to see female politicians posses; all things Hillary Clinton lacks.
