Death Wish
Vice-President Joe Biden, the Walking Gaffe, has blurted out that President Obama has asked him to be his running-mate again in 2012.
Biden- who would be a national laughingstock if, like George W. Bush or Dan Quayle or Sarah Palin, he were a Republican- is merely chuckled at indulgently by the same strongly pro-Democratic media which mocks Republicans so mercilessly for saying things far less stupid, far less often.
One thing, in any case, seems certain: President Obama- who is already in deep political trouble- has an apparent death wish were 2012 is concerned. It's hard to understand his willingness to make the same mistake twice and run with Joe Biden a second time any other way.
