Biden Wastes No Time Hammering Hillary

We have all known for weeks that Biden was going to run, but he made it offical today by filing papers to form an exploratory committee. Of course, it didn't take long for him to start beating up Clinton's plan for Iraq:

"I think it would be a disaster if it is her plan" to cut off funding for local Iraqi forces, Biden told "Good Morning America" anchor Diane Sawyer. "I think it's counterproductive."

Some of these guys will be nice to Hillary because they want consideration for VP. It's hard to see Richardson or Clark saying something really rotten about Hillary. They both want serious consideration for the VP slot. However, Biden is from Delaware, and nobody I know thinks he'll even be considered for the VP. Democrats tradionally like to make strategic picks for the VP. Democrats own Delaware. So, Biden won't get picked. Biden knows this. Hence, his eagerness to come out fighting.
