A Second is chosen

Obama has chosen Joe Biden of Delaware as his Vice Presidential nominee. Good choice? Bad choice? I think Biden adds some experience and foreign policy expertise that Obama lacks. We'll need a lot more information and exposure to Biden to see if this was a good pick for Obama. I would have lost all faith in him had he picked Hillary. But, from all appearances, she not only was never considered, she's been given the cold shoulder since she conceded the race. Good. Her and her husband need to be quietly shown the exit and they need to retire to a little home in the country, never to be seen or heard from again. Maybe they can be trotted out and shown off during certain national events, when all living Presidents are gathered together. But they should never be allowed near the levers of power again.

So starting on Monday the Democratic National Convention begins. Things are starting to speed up again. The summer is almost over. Its just about time to start heading for the home stretch and the day of reckoning. About damn time!!!
