Right now thousands of so-called journalists and political party
operatives are combing through Ryan's high school transcripts and
childhood associates looking for something to smear him with. But there
are real and immediate problems for the Democrats. Ryan does raise the
bar for the two presidential candidates as he is a man with serious and
public concerns about the nation that transcend his own ambition. He is
both earnest and able which, of course, raises the real and immediate
question: What about Biden? He is neither earnest nor able. Does Obama
dump him? Can Obama allow Ryan to force his hand? But Biden will have to
debate Ryan; who can imagine that?
Replacing a guy with two
craniotomies who is a heartbeat away should be easy enough but he was
picked for his labor connections and his inoffensiveness. The Democrats
are such a crazy quilt of extremities and loyalties replacing him might
be dangerous. Worse, whom do you chose?
Imagine, for example, replacing Biden with Pelosi. Or Hillary.
