32. Joe Biden doesn't have Obama's track record

for, uhhh, we'll call it "Choosing your battles wisely, very, very, very wisely." And I agree with you about what Americans will see conflict as being. The question is, does Obama, and will he ever see challenging conflict as anything other than something to be avoided at all costs. The only reason this is being discussed now is that he refused, when given an opportunity to do so in front of an audience of 70+ million, to draw a clear distinction between himself and one of the most loathsome political figures to come on the scene in many decades. That's, frankly, terrifying to me.
