Hillary is Using Joe Biden Now

Maybe the Clinton campaign is starting to worry.  Today, Politico has a story about how Hillary Clinton is planning to offer the position of secretary of state to Joe Biden.  It's a rather amazing article.

First of all, Politico is one place where Democrats go to get articles published that they need to see in the media.  The Wikileaks emails show that Politico offered the Clinton campaign pre-approval of articles and quotes.  It functioned more like the house organ of the campaign than an actual news site.

Second, the article in Politico says that Hillary has not told Biden of her desire to have him at the head of the state department.  I laughed for five minutes after reading that.  Imagine, Hillary hasn't spoken to Joe, but instead leaked the news to Politico.  Sure.  There's no way that is true.

What this seems to be is a move to try to help cover over Hillary's failing record in foreign relations.  She's going to try to use Joe Biden to provide the needed expertise.  But it's Joe Biden.  He's the guy who has teeth marks on his feet from putting them into his mouth so often.
