VP roll shrunk: Obama will be hidin’ Biden

A report at the link below is titled, Biden to shrink VP role - big time.

Actually, a more appropriate title would be, Obama to shrink VP roll.

It will be Obama’s choice just as it was Bill Clinton’s choice to shrink Al Gore’s VP roll.

Biden won’t sit in on Senate Democrats’ weekly caucus meetings. His office will be on the House floor.

The report says Biden will not be pigeonholed. If that is true, why won’t he have an office in the White House?

Biden was selected because of his foreign policy experience yet it now seems that Biden will be biden’ his time in an office far from the White House.

Biden has offered Obama advice and recommendations for appointees he’s made so far, but the president-elect’s cabinet is certainly not stocked with Biden allies.

Barack Obama won’t rely on Joe Biden any more than Bill Clinton relied on Al Gore.
