Off topic question, is Van Hollen next in line to be Dem Whip in the House if Steny Hoyer goes?

[Kaine for Senate '18]

Definitely a good pick.

[The Mikado]

This just in: Paul Ryan picks belligerent homeless guy on South Capitol Ave. and C St intersection to play Biden at debate.

Ha.

And Kerry's playing Romney. Does Portman play both Obama and Biden, since he's been the GOP's go-to debate prep guy for years?

I think so. Could be next Democratic Leader.

Ironically Kerry might need to put some serious effort into being a French speaking Massachusetts flip-flopper.

Seems like both Xavier Becerra and Debbie Wasserman Schultz are at least as likely to get leadership positions if either Pelosi or Hoyer step down from their posts in the next Congress.

Biden excels in arrogance and ignorance but not in facts. It's going to be hilarious watching Ryan destroy him.

Here. Fixed it for you.

Image is everything, and the image Biden projects is "washed-up."

Ryan projects "vigorous" to complement Romney's "competence."

Obama is increasingly projecting "nice guy, but in over his head." In a word, "ineffective."

[Snowstalker Mk. II]

I tend to think of Biden as your silly but badass uncle who will obviously curbstomp Rep. Scrappy Doo (R-WI)

I hereby nominate this for "LOL of the Week."

Ok, just because Biden is old, doesn't mean Ryan is automatically gonna seem better than him. That didn't work for Palin in 2008, and it didn't work out for Edwards in 2004. Biden is way funnier and more energetic than Ryan is.

This is exactly my image of Biden. The crazy, drunk, badass uncle who everyone thinks is crazy but still loves.

You keep using that expression. I don't think you know what that expression means.

To be fair, Biden is washed-up in the same way that John Travolta is. I am not calling him Mark Hamill or anything.

I don't think you quite grasp (or are denial about) how old-looking, irrelevant and past his prime Biden has become. A lot can change in four years, and not always for the better...

[Snowstalker Mk. II]

As I said before, even if Joe is a washed-up old guy as you suggest, Paul Ryan is the political Scrappy Doo; the annoying runt who always yells "Lemme at 'em!" and always gets stomped.

 Who are Romney/Ryan going to have play Obama/Biden?

Who are Romney/Ryan going to have play Obama/Biden?

Portman has being doing GOP debate prep for years. Dunno if he does both or they find someone else to play Biden for Ryan.
