Biden his time

Barack Obama opted to follow King George in picking a running mate with foreign policy cred. Senate Foreign Relations Committee chairman Joseph R. Biden Jr. of Delaware has plenty of that. He was originally a critic of Captain Hope and his lack of foreign policy experience, and is now a critic of the Gentleman from Arizona’s experience. Probably in an effort to meet German media deadlines, news of the decision was released at 3 a.m. through emails and text messages. It would seem that actual 3 a.m. phone calls are reserved for emergencies. The dynamic duo is set to go public for the first time Saturday afternoon in Springfield, Ill.
