Joe Foreign Policy Whiz KidBiden
The former Senator-for-Life from Delaware, an example of the kind of top-notch Washington intellect to be found in the World's Greatest Deliberative Body...
left no room for doubt as to whether he will be President Barack
B.O.Obama's 2012 running mate, saying Wednesday he "absolutely, positively" will be on the Democratic ticket.
Asked on NBC television's "Today Show" program whether he would be Obama's running mate again, Biden, 68, was emphatic.
"Absolutely, positively yes. There's never been any question about that," he said.
"The president's made that clear. Hardly anybody has raised that anymore," the veteran former US senator said, dismissing rumours that he might take a pass on a second grueling presidential campaign as little more than Washington "parlor game" talk.
