[QUOTE} Bryan, I agree those questions should be answered, but can you truly tell me what Biden's stance is on those?`[/QUOTE]

Sorry Jim,
had to step away from the computer for a few minutes.. I had read some stuff onthe issues last week... but I dont the time to back track to it to double check, correct me where wrong...

1. environment - Biden introduced or was involved with one of the first climate change acts in the 80's; I think I read somewhere about a national security and climate change initiative while on the Foreign relations committee (don't quote me though). He was actually pretty strong environmentally against the other Dems in the Primary.

2. education (teaching creationism anyone?) I know her kids are in public schools, and that is admirable; Biden has been pretty strong for smaller classes, more funding, college tax credits etc..

3. abortion - He's a pro choice

4. Gay rights - voted no on the constitutional ban on marriage

5. The way on Iraq - Originally voted for the war, not my favorite position of his

6. Her take on the economy - I think he lacks in this department, or at least I havent read anything on it...

7 her take on energy policy - Not sure Bidens 'take' on this; he has been pretty good at pushing for new energy sources and was pretty harsh on the big oil companies in the hearings recently... whats his plan? Honestly do not know... I like his take that we need to influence world changes in fuel use, not just our own...

But,
I'm a huge geek.
Hell Meet the press is one of my podcasts every week...

Like McCain, Biden's record is out there over 30 years.
Thats why I think it is more critical for Obama and Palin to get theirs out there clear and loud...
