A Dull Moment

What other than his gaffes has Joe Biden been known for since he became Vice President? A poll of the obviously uninformed rated Biden as the better choice than Paul Ryan, a numbers cruncher and policy wonk on budgetary measures as brilliant as has ever served. Joe Biden has pushed one major idea in the last decade and that was to divide Iraq into cantons according to the model of Switzerland to facilitate the withdraw of US troops back when George W. Bush was President. The then Delaware Senator Biden was wrong about that. American forces were able to pull out while Iraq remained unified. Biden was wrong about and opposed the US troop surge that stabilized Iraq enough that US troops could leave, and Biden has been wrong about Federal spending and bailouts stimulating recovery and has looked like a joke during his tenure as Vice President. No one votes for the bottom of the ticket but just as Romney is manifestly more capable than Obama, Ryan trumps Biden in spades.
