Ridiculously Sublime
Joe Biden speaks. Remembering Leavitt’s past. A legislative coup.

BIDEN HIS TIME

In The Prowler’s search for readership contributions that highlight
how truly ridiculous some people can be, particularly those who
want to run for President in 2008, The Prowler is pleased to
present an occasional series: How Silly Can Sen.
Joseph
Biden
Be?

In this inaugural segment, Senator Biden reveals his poor judgment of character.
When speaking of President Bush, Senator Biden said: “He is brain dead,” (Wilmington, DE, News Journal, October 20, 2004). Yet just the other day, Senator Biden said of his colleague, Sen. Lincoln Chafee, whom Democrats would like to see switch parties: “He has a backbone like a ramrod.” (“Imus in the Morning,” 12/9/04)
Biden, according to Senate Democratic Leadership sources, is looking for ways to raise his public exposure over the next 18 months, as he considers how best to approach a possible presidential run. His staff is already looking at potential high profile speaking opportunities in Iowa, New Hampshire, and California.
