Will Sen. Joe Biden be dropped from the Democratic Party ticket before Election Day?

Television pundits, talk radio personalities and blogs have been buzzing with speculation about a last-minute VP switch for the party.

On Fox's "Hannity & Colmes" last night, Sean Hannity asked Gov. Ed Rendell, D-Pa., "Will they replace Biden with Hillary?"

Rendell replied, "No, absolutely not. Joe Biden is here to stay. Next vice president of the United States."

However, according to recent polls, Biden's popularity is not as high as Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin. Results from a CNN/Opinion Research Corp. national survey released yesterday have Obama and McCain virtually tied – Obama has 49 percent while McCain has 48 percent. But Sarah Palin has surged ahead of Biden on popularity with 55 percent to his 44 percent. Her favorability rating is also 6 percent higher.

Following Sen. Joe Biden's recent statement that Hillary Clinton might have been a better choice for Obama's running mate, a popular online trading exchange website is taking wagers on whether Biden will be withdrawn from the ticket.

Will Sen. Joe Biden be dropped from the Democratic Party ticket before Election Day?

Television pundits, talk radio personalities and blogs have been buzzing with speculation about a last-minute VP switch for the party.

On Fox's "Hannity & Colmes" last night, Sean Hannity asked Gov. Ed Rendell, D-Pa., "Will they replace Biden with Hillary?"

Rendell replied, "No, absolutely not. Joe Biden is here to stay. Next vice president of the United States."

However, according to recent polls, Biden's popularity is not as high as Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin. Results from a CNN/Opinion Research Corp. national survey released yesterday have Obama and McCain virtually tied – Obama has 49 percent while McCain has 48 percent. But Sarah Palin has surged ahead of Biden on popularity with 55 percent to his 44 percent. Her favorability rating is also 6 percent higher.

Following Sen. Joe Biden's recent statement that Hillary Clinton might have been a better choice for Obama's running mate, a popular online trading exchange website is taking wagers on whether Biden will be withdrawn from the ticket.

Intrade is currently predicting a 7.9 percent chance Biden will be dropped. Until the election is over, the Biden trading category will fluctuate in value between 0 and 100 like a stock reacting to daily news. The price has been steadily increasing since yesterday when Biden said Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y., could have been a better candidate for Obama's running mate.

"Make no mistake about this," Biden said at a Nashua, N.H., rally. "Hillary Clinton is as qualified or more qualified than I am to be vice president of the United States of America. Let's get that straight. She's a truly close personal friend, she is qualified to be president of the United States of America, she's easily qualified to be vice president of the United States of America, and quite frankly, it might have been a better pick than me. But she's first rate, I mean that sincerely, she's first rate, so let's get that straight."

Many Clinton supporters pushed for an Obama/Clinton ticket following the primaries, arguing she would help Obama win over Hispanics and blue-collar voters. Rather than vetting Clinton, Obama announced Biden as his running mate two days before the Democratic National Convention. Now some are speculating about what could happen to Obama's quest for the presidency if Biden is dropped from the ticket.

The "Sean Hannity Show" featured a reader poll on its website asking, "If Biden gets yanked, is it over?"

Approximately 6.49 percent said "No, he could win," while 22.08 percent said it depends on other circumstances.

A full 71.43 percent responded, "Yes! Pack it up."

Will Sen. Joe Biden be dropped from the Democratic Party ticket before Election Day?

Politically it would be suicide, but Oh'Bummer probably can't win with Bidet on the ticket either. I think he's f**ked.

However, I am wondering if that was not intentional. Biden was such an "off the wall" choice that it caught a lot of people off guard. However, IF you wanted to poison the ticket it was a good choice.

Now, assuming one is dealing with a conservative base revolting against the choice of a McLame a McLame loss to Oh'Bummer would likely cause a surge of interest in reclaiming the GOP by the base - which is much more conservative than the liberal McNutz. So, in order to maintain control, while creating more unrest in the Black Community, you could saddle Oh'Bummer with a real loser for VP, blame the loss on him and not Oh'Bummer, and pacify the GOP base by (s)Electing McLame. This makes the reasoning for the selection of a much more telegenic Sarah Palin more understandable - a "Bush" Republican Endless War supporter to keep the Military Industrial Complex "in the money".

I am speculating, but the actual powers (Rotchilds and Rockefuckers) are Machiavellian enough to think in these kinds of convoluted manipulations. Just speculating mind you.
