I thought about starting this thread this morning, but got sidetracked and forgot. While my preference would have been for Bill Richardson, Biden is also a good pick. As said, he knows how to pick a fight, and win it. But more than that, he is a great diplomat, and will offer a boost to Obama's lack of foreign experience. On the downside, he has been a senator for a long time, and kind of negates the "Change" platform..
