Here's Biden saying that Clinton is as qualified or more qualified as he is to be VP. And that she may have been a better choice than him.

Video of him saying this here.

Text:
"Hillary Clinton is as qualified or more qualified than I am to be vice-president of the United States of America. Let's get that straight."

And: "She's a truly close personal friend...quite frankly, it might have been a better pick than me. But she's first rate, I mean that sincerely, she's first rate."

Story here.

I think he was just being gracious to a fault.

Last night in the forum on national service, Obama said incredibly glowing things about McCain - I'm surprised the media and the repubs haven't jumped all over it to say that Obama was making a case that McCain would make a great president. But really Obama is just a very gracious person who consistently takes the high road. Like Biden, it's probably to a fault in a race like this one. Unfortunately.

I saw the video of Biden. He looked really worn out and tired. Maybe that explains most of it.

SURELY it doesn't mean Obama is going to drop Biden and get Hillary..?
