I'll be astonished if Biden is the VP pick next year, but they won't make the move until the opposition is better defined.

"It's not that Biden adds nothing, "

So what does he add? Obama wins Deleware with or without BIden on the ticket. How does Biden's presence on the ticket help Obama with the electoral math?

You're dead-on, in 2008, Biden was needed to give the appearance of experience to the ticket, because Obama was a newbie. Obama doesn't need that anymore. From where I sit, "Plugs" adds zilch.
