Joe Biden Should Quit

Here is one way that the Democrats could still win: Get Joe Biden to QUIT. Joe Biden should simply say, as he partly said yesterday: "I do not want to be responsible for the Democratic Party losing this election. I think that there are other people better suited to be Vice President. I therefore withdraw from this election."

Then, Obama would have 3 choices to replace him: Hillary, Hillary, or Hillary. Period. This is his last opportunity to compensate for what could be a FATAL ERROR.

With Hillary on board as VP, the Republicans are TRUMPED. Palin gets a one-way bus ticket back to Wasilla.

This would also be a BRILLIANT move for Joe Biden. If Obama/Biden loses, he is going to be political dead meat. He is going to be blamed because he was obviously the wrong VP pick. Further, Obama will throw him under the bus to try to less his own responsibility for stealing the nomination from Hillary.

I Biden quits, he becomes an instant SUPER-HERO to much of the Democratic Party. Smart Democrats know that it was a DISASTER to not pick Hillary for VP (not to mention not picking her for Pres).

That's the only solution. Otherwise, the Democrats are probably going to lose. The Democrats currently have about a 20% probability of winning the election.

REVISION. 9/24/08
Wow. What a difference a week makes! Now that we are apparenly on the verge of 1929 redux, Obama's popularity is skyrocketing. He might not need Hillary after all. But then, things could change. This is definitely a topsy-turvy election. I would still prefer Hillary.

No offense to Biden. I would actually prefer Biden as President over Obama.
