Given the choice between having Sarah Palin or Joe Biden make the decision about a little-publicized proposal for new construction in the nation’s 49th state, I’d choose the Alaska governor every time. Why? Because I’m convinced her foreign policy instincts are better than the six-term senator from Delaware. To date, only three construction projects in [...]

Joe Biden a ‘Rainmaker’ for Trial Lawyers
October 2nd, 2008 · No Comments
When I read a piece in which Barack Obama running mate Joe Biden was described by one source as a “rainmaker,” I just had to read it.

Obama Will Fall Behind With Biden on Ticket
August 27th, 2008 · 3 Comments
I count myself among the many Americans who believe Barack Obama‘s selection of Joseph Biden as his running mate was a huge mistake and will cause the Democratic Party presidential ticket to fall behind Republican John McCain before losing — and losing big. That in mind, I decided to launch the Obama-Behindem 2008 merchandise line. [...]

Joe Biden’s Words Used as Ammo in McCain Ad
August 23rd, 2008 · 2 Comments
A television spot released by the John McCain campaign soon after Barack Obama announced his selection of Joe Biden as his running mate contains an interesting exchange between ABC’s George Stephanopoulus and Biden: Stephanopoulus: “You were asked if he’s ready. You said, ‘I think (Obama) can be ready, but right now, I don’t believe he [...]

McCain’s Days as Viable Candidate Numbered
January 4th, 2008 · 16 Comments
En route to New Hampshire, Republican John McCain is getting a lot of mileage out of his third-place finish in the Iowa Caucus. At the same time, he must realize his days as a presidential contender are numbered, in part, due to a skeleton in his campaign closet: McCain is on record as saying he [...]
