Joe Biden got less than 1% of the vote in the Primary election?

Question

How on earth does Obama or the Democrats see a man who did so poorly in the primary as adding something good for them now? Wouldnt have the smart money been with biting the bullet, putting bad feelings aside and picking Hillary?

Answer 1

Hillary and Bill would undermine Obama every step of the way. They don't want Obama to win this, they want McCain to. That's why they are half assing it the whole time. They don't want to be on the ticket, because then she doesn't have a chance to run for 8 more years. She is already looking to 2012, and the only way that happens is if McCain wins. She and Bill are self serving, and care about nothing but power. Biden is the authority in the Democratic party when it comes to foreign policy, and he knows exactly how things work. With Obama's leadership and communication skills, being advised by Biden, they would make a great governing team in the White House.

Answer 2

There are no bad feelings. Biden has more experience and has specific experience and credibility on foreign policy issues. Everton on both sides of the senate think he is a great, honest guy and genuinely like working with him...which is necessary.

Answer 3

I am convinced that this move cost Barack the election. I guess he didn't want to share the limelight with Hillary.

Answer 4

Obama did pimp slap her... Hillary and her 18,000,000 votes.

Answer 5

Because everyone outside the democratic party HATES the Clintons. Biden helps with independents and moderate Republicans.
