Obama/Biden '08: The Baracky and Bullstinkle Show!

Last night, while awaiting the sacred text message to descend from on high, I started thinking again about an Obama/Biden ticket.

Because, you see, I knew that I had seen it somewhere before. A small inner voice was filling my head with childhood recollections that had been submerged in the depths of my subconscious mind 'lo these many years.

And then, in a flash, it washed over me like so much of the Obamessiah's new and improved (extra hopenchanginess included!) baptismal water.

First, Obama. In him we have a nerdy, Urkel-esque character who is young, inexperienced, somewhat naive. His grasp of history appears weak (as his comments tying American actions to Russian military intervention revealed yet again this week). Clearly he needs a mentor.

In Biden, we have an insufferable, self-professed "higher i.q. than you" guy, with a penchant for falling in love with the sound of his own voice and for demeaning those who seek to share the limelight with him.

To paraphrase Men at Work, "who could this ticket be, now"?

It's obvious. Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you the Democratic Ticket.
