For all of those looking for the other VP nominee, it appears that he may be back in business. As we mentioned briefly in class, there was some increasing talk about Joe Biden's general lack of exposure in wake of Sarah Palin's Super Woman rise and escapades. The LA Times has an interesting article discussing the amazing vanishing act of one Joe Biden and in it, suggests that Biden may not have gone anywhere, but it was merely the media who fled. What'll happen as Palin's novelty wears and the general grating nature of her ignoring the press becomes more, well, grating? As I mentioned in my previous post, the press staged a mini coup earlier today at the UN. Will Biden begin to re-enter the picture as McCain/Palin continue to piss off the press?

Actually, I'm starting to wonder if maybe Biden BENEFITS from the neglect of the press. He says all this crazy about FDR being on TV during the Depression.
I have to agree. Perhaps it is a combination of Obama/Biden realizing that over exposure of the VP turns into major scrutiny and they are avoiding it while at the same time the media has been cast under the Palin spell and somewhat neglected Biden.
