Meanwhile, the Other No. 2 Keeps On Punching
As the economy reels, Senator Joseph R. Biden Jr. — the Other Running Mate — has been absolutely butchering Senator John McCain across the Rust Belt this week. It is not clear who has noticed.

1. I wish the MSM would show him more.
It's really frustrating. I don't want to hear about you-know-who. That person is insignificant, yet gets all the coverage. The MSM is doing this country a disservice.

3. I've finally realized why Biden was bitter about being ignored by the MSM in the primaries.
This guy is great, but he never gets any coverage.

He's an amazing speaker -- I think he's actually better at those local rallies than Obama is. But his great speeches go totally uncovered.

If he was boring, I could understand it. But he's not even close to boring.

4. It's because he speaks to issues that would upset the wealthy owners
and talkers on the networks and on the cable...

5. I think you hit the nail on the head. Joe does very good speaking ti blue collar voters
The MSM is afraid of what he has to say. However, Palin's initial popularity is falling like a rock and Biden is actually starting to be covered now. Isn't MSNBC doing a bio about him this weekend?
