Question

Why did Obama Figure No Female Gov Was a Better Choice than Biden?

Answer 1

Biden has described himself as a 30-year friend of a key figure in the Rezko trial who’s pleaded guilty to a federal extortion charge in Chicago and is awaiting sentencing.

When the Delaware senator began contemplating his own 2008 presidential run, he initially was helped by Chicago lawyer Joseph Cari Jr., who also served as Biden’s Midwest field director in his failed 1988 bid for president.

In 2005, Cari admitted to taking part in an $850,000 kickback scheme that prosecutors say was part of a larger political fund-raising operation for Gov. Blagojevich

Answer 2

Speaking of Mr. Biden I wonder why such a great and well liked

choice for VP was so quickly rejected in the Primaries.
