Biden is the other half of the parenthesis

as I watched The Ticket stand together on Saturday, I was struck by the almost perfect symmetry that I was seeing

they stand shoulder to shoulder, almost the same height

black/white
younger/older
cool and measured/fiery and passionate

its almost yin/yang

and Biden has long been "different", and he's perfect for the one true job of the Vice President -- he's the president of the Senate -- where Biden knows people and knows how it is supposed to work -- not just the forever "us vs them" version the neocons have given us the past 8 years

let us now pray that we were all looking at the future on Saturday in Illinois
