Clinton = higher negatives (4.00 / 2)

At least, I'd suspect. Plus, she'd simultaneously energize the GOP base while demoralizing a hunk of Dem (given her negatively perceived behavior during the primaries). I'd definitely prefer Biden.

And there's Bill (0.00 / 0)

And all the problems it would create for actually trying to govern with a 3-headed Presdiency.  And the drama.

John McCain--He's not who you think he is.

Biden has real experience (4.00 / 3)

Whereas Hillary has just 8 years in the Senate and her First Lady years. Let's not pretend that she has the same standing to attack McCain on foreign policy that Biden does.

I hope Biden is the pick. He's said some controversial stuff in the past, but he has also said controversial stuff about Obama ("clean, articulate"). So if Obama can give him a break, it actually shows graciousness on his part.

Obama/Biden '08.
