Jon Stewart Interviews Obama's VP Pick, Joe Biden, on The Daily Show
I got my message from Barack Obama at 4:56 this morning. I'm assuming this was some kind of attempt on Obama's part to prove that he was ready for a 3:00 am call, even on a Friday night.
Anyway, as a very sleepy Dennis reported earlier, he picked Joe Biden for VP. Finally, the Democrats have a chance to win that coveted Delaware vote. Obama has kindly set up a website where you can congratulate Joe.
My guess is that his choice was made a year and a half ago when Biden gave him this lovely compliment:
"I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy … I mean, that's a storybook, man."
Here's Jon Stewart from January of last year helping Biden with that sentence.

this is hilarious I can't believe he chose him as VP. At least he said "this is an incredible guy,he's phenomenon".
That's freakin' funny! I got my call at around 3 a.m. too! Remember, nothing in politics happens by accident! That's funny and smart, but I hadn't thought about it. I wonder if he'll mention it at 3:00 P.M. when he and Biden publicly speak.
Has anyone noticed Obama and Biden have almost the exact same facial characteristics?
