The EU

Google says the EU requires a notice of cookie use (by Google) and says they have posted a notice. I don't see it. If cookies bother you, go elsewhere. If the EU bothers you, emigrate. If you live outside the EU, don't go there.

Democratic VEEP Choice

President Obama's Press Secretary, Mr Jay Carney, says they are sticking with Biden for VP.

My wife's take is that the reason Vice President Joe Biden has been so gaffe prone lately is he is trying to get thrown off the ticket.  As she says, Mr Biden is not a dumb man.

Your milage may differ.

Doofus Strateegery.

To proffer the notion that Biden is out, is to all but say, Clinton is in. To remind independents that Hillary Clinton is a viable option now, is to remind them that they like the notion of Clinton in 2016.

To remind anyone of Clinton in a positive sense, is to bolster the Dem brand and diminish the GOP.

Who makes a better bridge to Hillary 2016? Obama or Romney?

Doofus.

Yes, and your point?

Didn't we know all this in 2008?

So, is it Clinton in 2012 or Clinton in 2016?

The buzz in the "boots on the ground" is Hillary2016.

I was not a Clintonista in 2007, so I'm a bit on the outside here. But, Obama did not bother to dismantle the "Clinton Machine" within the state parties.

With Hillary giveing up Sate at the end of the term, it is widely calculated that she will rest up and then come back with a campaign.

Who really knows?

Niki Tsongas would make a nice replacement.

She has creditials and likeable to older Democrats. Technically her resume is being a spouse to a politician. I know I don't seem like a feminist, but I appreciate the fact when I did work I was not seen as 'a girl' due to changing attitudes. Thank you, ladies.
