    Biden was the most inscrutable choice, ever, for VP. Instead of "change" Obama brought out an old hack, who had trouble with both truth telling, even during the campaign, and with inserting his foot into his mouth. Oh, to know what kind of negotiation that was, to get him on the ticket---except, perhaps to allay terrified old white guys who feared a woman and a (half)black man on the ticket would bring on the apocalypse. #joebiden

    apparently I am in the minority, but I love Joe Biden! I think he's like the lovable Steve Urkel of the White House. He comes in, says stupid stuff, knocks shit over, and is like "Did I do that?" Oh Joe. #joebiden

    Joe Biden is everything thats wrong and fucked up with congress. This dope won his seat in the Senate when he was 29 and has never had another job until being VP. He has learned about as much about how the country works from his perch in DC as Palin learned about Russia from staring at it. He is walking proof we need term limits.

    And he doesn't drink. I don't trust people who don't drink, unless they've already been alcoholics. #joebiden

    Why is it that I feel compelled to defend Gawker's subject matter against the editors/writers at least once a day lately?

    Either this new crop of staff writers is utterly fucked, or the editorial direction has taken a nosedive, or both.

    Is there some negative correlation between the quality of stories and the quality of AJAX/CSS? #joebiden

    @Motoko Kusanagi: From where I'm standing, it would appear to be a positive correlation. It's a good day when I get tripped up by fewer than five unresponsive scripts, infinite waits for comments to load or what have you. #joebiden

    @Motoko Kusanagi: Oh yeah, I didn't mean to quibble. I agree that the site gets fancier all the time, but features seem to break often. I should have added before that it could well be my OS and browser causing headaches most readers don't experience. And in all fairness, I haven't been reading long enough to judge contemporary content against the past. #joebiden

    Not sure what point you're trying to make, Amrita... that you think Cheney's worldview makes some sense? That Cheney was initially popular, before everything he did brought his popularity rating to a low of 28%? I love it that Biden is willing to call a moron a moron. This is a ridiculous post. #joebiden

    Oh, and if you're trying to poke fun at Vice Prez Biden for weeping during the debate when he spoke about his first wife and baby daughter who died, well then, that's just messed up. #joebiden

    I'm absolutely NOT a supporter of ANYTHING Dick says... but, Good Lawwd, Biden, Bin Laden will always BE a part of the issue. I'm sorry, I guess if you had the prez saying this I could understand... but, uh, Joe? Nope.

    That being said, why are we posting crap from Fox News anyway - I thought we weren't supposed to take this stuff seriously?

    While Caroline has an incredibly annoying speech pattern I do think she's very bright and as qualified as anyone else based solely on intellect. It's the glad handing and schmoozing she needs help with. Oh, and the lack of dues paying and previous holding of elective office.


    I know we're not supposed to comment on anyone's looks here or the Jezzies will get us, but my old Irish grandfather used to call her "beautiful in the cradle ugly at the table", which is some weird old timey saying in his arsenal. Personally, I think she's still cute.

    @gladys_kravitz: How do we know she's bright? We know she's well educated and we know that her family background gave her a legacy admission but she hasn't even spoken in remote detail on policy like her cousins (RFK Jr, Kerry, Patrick) have in the public.

    @Cord: You're right about not knowing her feelings on policy but she has to have better than average smarts to pass the NYS bar exam on the first try. That's not something that one can get a pass on based on one's family name. How many times did the Post headline say The Hunk Flunks about her brother?

    I don't understand all the snark here. If your father had been murdered in public, and the film of that murder & your mother's traumatic reaction shown more than any other piece of film footage in the world .... [fill in lots of other uniquely unpleasant conditions of CK's early life] you would deserve a lot more respect and kindness than Gawker gives you here. Grow up guys, money isn't everything.

    @AvisBabawaba: what the hell, shit that happens to you when you are about five, no matter how sad, does not excuse every other behavior you ever do the rest of your life and free you from criticism for your behaviors. just ask most drug dealers, gang members, etc! or does privlege and respect for your tragic circumstance in youth only extend to pretty white ladies?

    Since her announcement, I've noticed that the most unflattering photos of CKS have emerged. I keep wondering if the author(s) HAVE to write about her because it's news, but they resent it, so they throw in the most hideous photo they can find.
