Biden 'absolutely, positively' Obama's 2012 running mate
2011-10-13
[Daily Nation (Kenya)] US Vice President Joe Foreign Policy Whiz Kid Biden
The former Senator-for-Life from Delaware, an example of the kind of top-notch Washington intellect to be found in the World's Greatest Deliberative Body...
 left no room for doubt as to whether he will be President Barack B.O. Obama's 2012 running mate, saying Wednesday he "absolutely, positively" will be on the Democratic ticket.

Asked on NBC television's "Today Show" program whether he would be Obama's running mate again, Biden, 68, was emphatic.

"Absolutely, positively yes. There's never been any question about that," he said.

"The president's made that clear. Hardly anybody has raised that anymore," the veteran former US senator said, dismissing rumours that he might take a pass on a second grueling presidential campaign as little more than Washington "parlor game" talk.

#8  I don't believe that Hildebeast wants the job. My impression is that she has had about enough of Barack Obama.

#5  Buying a new homunculus would be terribly expensive, now that the demon world no longer accepts US Treasury bonds.

#4  The 1994 movie Dumb and Dumber comes to mind.

Harry: I can't believe it.
Lloyd: Life is a fragile thing, Har. One minute you're chewin' on a burger, the next minute you're dead meat.

Hillary is in the wings, the far left wings that is.
