1. He needs medication
He is all over the place. Armitage? Really? Based on what? His willingness to fall on a sword meant for others in the Plame investigation? Iran-Contra?

The spotlight is all he craves, for reasons good or bad.

And for the life of me, I can make no sense of the man from his buckshot decisions, other than that he must be beholden to others.

He is such a perfect example of why we need to get rid of DLC Dems.

2. Actually this might be a good idea
Not because he should get the job, BUT because it affords a venue for him to be put under oath at the confirmation hearings. Then he can be asked if he was the Plame leaker.

3. Biden's a runny-mouthed idiot.
There's a reason guys like Matthews and Imus love to have him on their shows as a "Democratic spokesperson".

5. There should be a million miles of difference
between Democratic Party "leaders" and Republicans that have all but ruined this country. If Armitage is the only name Biden could come up with for Defense Secretary, he ought to get the hell off the stage.

I`ve just about had my fill of Democrats who insist on pushing the...my friends across the aisle...crap.

6. That alone is proof Biden should NEVER be president
Can you just picture the Cabinet a President Biden would assemble? :eyes:

When you throw in all the other dumb things he utters, one may come to the conclusion he should not be allowed out without supervision.
