 Again, Biden is an ass.  And I am on record as being not happy with his selection as VP.
 
 But he isn't Quayle.

 This is just silly. Biden was a third tier Presidential candidate in his own right.  When did Quayle ever even vaguely aspire to the third tier? And why are we even talking about Quayle at this point in time, when he's no more relevant than any other trival pursuits question.
Yes, I would have preferred something north of third tier for the Obama ticket, but if you're going to have a cannon loose on the deck, you can do worse than Biden.  Much, much, much worse. Like Palin.
