Sorry, I had to do that headline. Sorry.

What I’m looking forward to with Joe Biden on the ticket: Photo-ops with his sprawling family. Biden reminding everyone that his son is deploying to Iraq in October….and he still supports withdrawal. And sure, the occasional hilarious verbal gaffe.

How he’ll be attacked: For recommending to John Kerry that John McCain should have been his running mate in 2004. That’ll lose him some credibility in criticizing McCain this time around.

If you’re looking for some Biden reading, check out my dispatch from the Iowa campaign trail with Biden last January. It was a blast. And here’s even more Biden.

Goodnight everyone!
