If you go back to what Barack has said about a VP choice it was clear he did not want a "yes man". He wanted someone who could govern with him. He wanted someone he could debate with and who would "push back" if he thought Barack was wrong. I think he picked that man.

It's always interesting to see how wrong people are on these threads, after the event occurs. I love going back and getting confirmation on the false conjectures that were made or predicted. So it's done, after the honeymoon (100 days) we wil see how Obama fares.
