Hypothetically Speaking…
This rumor is way too wild to ever come true, but it’s been rampant on the internet this weekend, and it’s human nature to ponder the “what if” question…
Oh, God, this is too silly to even type…
The rumor is that Biden will drop out of the race in the next 2 weeks, citing “health reasons”, and Clinton will swoop in to save the day.
Wow, it really does sound even more ridiculous after I’ve typed it out.
But just for kicks… what if it happened?
Would it guarantee a win for this election or completely sink it?
(I can’t believe I’m even entertaining something that has all the signs of an urban legend.)

OMG, wouldn’t that be a dream come true!
I detest the Borg Queen. Just detest her.
But, if this is what’s needed to get Obama elected and defeat the Old Coot, I would accept it.
He should have chosen her from the start…but we how these things go don’t we?
If the so-called health crisis of Biden is totally out of the blue, then subbing in Hillary might give Obama the edge. If he had chosen her initially, I think his odds would be much greater than they are now.
However, if the Biden problem relates to a past health issue, then I have to agree with Snopes’ opinion that it would cost Obama the election.
I also can’t believe you got me to comment on this, Nathan! Too crazy to just let pass on a Monday am, I guess. Plus I have a sinus infection, and am not in my right mind.
I’m not sure that it would be so great. He should have picked her from the beginning if she were to be his VP.
The newspaper that I read online finally got an “electoral compass”.
I like when it’s easy to find out who you agree with most.
Is there any others out there?
Or is this the only one? http://www.electoralcompass.com/
This is completely crackers.
Reminds me of the rumor that swirled before the convention that Al Gore would submit his name at the last minute and be picked as the presidential nominee.
Wishful thinking….
