2. Love the first comment after the article
Biden is right when he says people shouldn't compare him with Dennis Kucinich.
Kucinich has a solid plan for health care - Biden doesn't.
Kucinich wasn't fooled by Bush's lies about WMDs - Biden was.
Kucinich wants to restore U.S. jobs by ending NAFTA - Biden doesn't.
Kucinich believes Cheney should be impeached - Biden doesn't.
And Kucinich has always written his own speeches.

11. Hey, that's Biden's own hair!
So what if they transplanted it from his back?

27. Too true!
Biden is not a an impressive candidate.

Everything you said is true, though I wish Kucinich would let someone help him polish his speeches just a bit. I like what he says but sometimes I hear a part of his speech where I just slap myself in the forehead. I guess it just feels a bit like lumpy gravy to me.

Of course it doesn't help that the media routinely ignores him.

3. Biden - get a clue!
Your support of Shrub's escalation last May made your presidential run even more irrelevant than it already was... :boring:

7. Biden, you are one of the problems. You are the part of the cancer that is
eating America alive right now.

It's time for you to go do something else. Let someone who knows what the f*ck they're doing have a chance.

8. Love this part!
As for this country's lopsided trade policies with China, Kucinich recalled the childhood tale that if you dig a hole deep enough, you will eventually get to China.

Pausing for affect, he deadpanned, "We're there."

13. Nobody... puts... Biden.. in a corner!
Seriously, every once in a while he does this tough-talking bullshit that really makes me cringe--like "ramming" legislation down Chimpy's throat, and the like. Not only unpresidential, but un-senatorial.

14. Agreed. Dennis K is SOOO above that asswipe...
Biden, you're an ASSHOLE.

For the only way anybody SHOULD be comparing you to Kucinich is how BAD you are compared to him...

Don't like it - TOUGH!

Go away, you asshole, just go away...

34. Know much about Delaware?

Like it or not, bank credit card operations are collectively the #1 employer in the State of Delaware. We have the credit operations of Bank of America, First USA, Bank One, JPMorgan Chase, AIG, Citigroup, and Deutsche Bank based here.

Delaware is the second smallest state in the country. You cannot throw a dead cat without hitting a bank employee. Nobody is going to get elected here on a platform of not representing the interests of those people.

Our delegation to Congress consists of two senators and one representative. If the rest of the country cannot outvote them, then I don't know what to say.

21. Well they're both polling in single digits, Dennis has somewhat of an excuse...
In that the country isn't really ready for what he has to say, but somebody has to say it. Biden isn't proposing anything out of the mainstream but he's still in single digits.

22. What a tool!
Biden has had a history of being condescending towards other candidates.

After all, during his infamous "clean" comments about Obama, what's forgotten is that he insulted Hillary and Edwards as well.

An incredible ego to boot.

Unlike Biden, Kucinich had the good sense opposing the war from the start, hasn't whored himself out to the credit card industry, supports universal healthcare...

I could go on. Kucinich is so abive this ass hole.

as a principled idealist like Dennis. He belongs in the "waffling, opportunistic politician" category.

No sellouts here.

41. Biden should be heckled at every event from now on for his crappy behaviour.
First he makes the absolutely racist and patronizing comments about Senator Obama: "he's clean".

Now, it's Kucinich.

Enough's enough. Biden deserves nothing less than scorn from all Democrats now. May he be heckled every where he goes.

44. Biden is getting my vote, and Kucinich can eat sh#$
after his vote today AGAINST withdrawal of our troops.

Biden is the only candidate with a detailed plan for dealing with the Iraqi qWagmire, and until another dem gives a detailed plan for how to deal with the mess, I have no other dem to consider worthy of my vote.
