"Republicans Target Biden Over Gaffes," "Gleefully Suggest" Hillary as a Replacement: Are gop-ers More Nuts Than Bubba Posing with Porn Stars?


Joe Biden is an idiot.  A walking gaffe machine.  A poorly spoken Obama stooge.  And as reported this week on Politico.com (first link at bottom), his approval ratings are "under water."  So why in the HELL would the right-winger gop'ers want to upset that apple cart?  That would almost require a level of stupidity equal to or exceeding that of Biden himself, no?

Well, the gop-ers aren't lettin' that stop 'em!  Also in the Politico this week (second link at bottom) is a story about the republic partisans "targeting Biden over gaffes."  The half-baked effort has included the Romney campaign and republic partisan national committee spending "weeks tracking Biden's every move" and "highlighting the veep's penchant for verbal tumbles and miscues."

The first link below even says gop-ers are going so far as to "gleefully suggest [Hillary Clinton] as a possible ticket replacement" -- as "gleefully" as Bill Clinton hanging around with a pack of porn stars, apparently (Bubba's pic from this week below, with porn broads Tasha Reign and Brooklyn Lee).  But porn stars aside, when it comes to Hillary, better be careful whatcha wish for, you deranged right-wingers...

In my mind, Hillary Clinton on the ticket would virtually assure Obama's reelection, whereas it's only a slightly better than 50/50 proposition with Biden's sorry ass around.  Hillary remains a fairly popular character with non-leftist 20 percenter democrats (some of whom may be tempted to vote for Romney) and would appeal to many Independents (though not me), who currently poll decidedly in favor of Romney.  Plus many who were motivated in 2008 to vote for the first black president will be similarly motivated to vote for the first woman VP.

And if the republic partisans keep it up, they might just succeed in getting enough democrat party partisans and leftist bloggers (1) to start questioning Biden as a liability and (2) to start beating the Hillary drum, which would get Obama's attention. 

Now, while Obama does disdain Hillary -- such that I've previously said he and his historically huge ego would never put her on the ticket -- I think that may just be trumped by the fact Obama is also a cat whom I believe (first and foremost) will do or say anything to be reelected. And how ironic would it be if misguided gop-er Biden-bashing, and a resulting Hillary switcheroo, ultimately garners Obama that reelection?  Won't be anything "gleeful" in Goperville that day!
