Biden goes after Hillary, Edwards, and Obama all at once.

Well, holy shit.
While his comments about Obama do border on racism ("clean and articulate"?), this kind of unbelievably blunt talk from a presidential candidate will make the debates that much better.

Biden's a footnote.
But it'll be useful to have him in the debates - if the other guys give a fluff answer, having Biden in there to say "that's bullshit, that'll never work" will help the Democrats to ultimately come up with the strongest candidate.
The problem isn't that you and I know that Biden has no shot at the nomination--it's that HE might not know that. And if he doesn't know that by the first debate, then his staffers during debate prep will be making damn sure he doesn't do anything so impolitic as call bullshit on his opponents (at least, not in terms strong enough to make news).
My guess is he'll take potshots at Edwards and Obama, and hope for a Cabinet post in the Clinton Administration.
What do you mean? I think we benefit from having Sharpton in the debates, too.
Ugh. Biden's useful if he plays the role of the guy his last lap, pointing around the room and going "Fuck you, fuck you, you're cool, fuck you, I'm out."
If he actually believe's he's electable... Ugh.
