I can understand how people wouldn't like Biden. He's pretty smug, especially when the subject rolls around to foreign policy, but at least he is coming from a position based on his knowledge. But I don't think it's the same. I think if Biden were President, by and large the country would be the same as if Obama were President and I think that his diplomatic experience would be really helpful, especially with our current position in the world. With Palin being President, I really just can't imagine a worse choice that would have any kind of realistic shot. She has no concept what she is talking about, or what she is being asked in these interviews. I have no confidence that she understands anything about foreign policy, energy, economics, shit anything. That woman, stewarding our economy through the worst crisis since the Great Depression.
I consider myself a realist. I can picture either McCain or Obama or even biden in the Presidency and doing at least as well as Bush has done, on the low end. I can't imagine a scale to measure Palin on.
