(Here's the part I like)

As a presidential candidate, however, the Delaware Democrat remains stuck in the second tier and far behind in fund-raising. And yet there are some signs of progress. In Iowa, he has the backing of 10 state legislators, third behind Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama (16 and 11 at last count).

Further, Dave Nagle, a former Iowa congressman and erstwhile state party chairman, says Biden is emerging as the second choice among many Democrats, a good place to be in the caucus process. "He is gaining traction," says the neutral Nagle.

As a candidate, Biden is now adding domestic policy pieces to his campaign. The latest: retirement security and education plans.

Still, his real selling point remains international affairs.

Now, foreign-policy complexities may not be foremost in the minds of the Democratic faithful.

His rivals, Biden says, like to joke that they'd make him their secretary of state. Then he asks his listeners a pointed question: "Are you ready to vote for anybody for president who's not capable of being secretary of state?"

more power than the MSM likes to indicate.

Ron Paul's recent $5 million Q3 results are an indication of this, too ( I think he was doing abysmally at first).

We all hear and think at times that we believe what we're told to believe. Apparently not. :headbang:

sec-of-state... :toast: :applause: :woohoo: :applause: :woohoo: :applause: :spray:

I think tsegat needs to do a mass mailing of what a good Biden picture looks like :P

Sometimes I think they do that on purpose.

the article is really good. Has anyone posted it at GDP yet?

Too tired now. Anybody? Or maybe tomorrow.
