Could Yepsen be off his rocker?
Absolutely. David Yepsen asked this question of himself in yesterdays Des Moines Register.
Could 2008 be Biden's year? Absolutely.
In a world without Hillary Clinton, Mark Warner, John Edwards, Al Gore, Barak Obama, and probably even Tom Carper, Joe Biden could be the Democratic nominee.
In a world without all those mentioned above, Mitt Romney, John McCain, Rudy Giuliani, Jeb Bush and probably even Rick Perry, Joe Biden could be the President.
Unfortunately, that is not the world we live in. That world is occupied by David Yepsen alone.
Yepsen said "Biden's still got a few friends from 1988..." I'm sure Eugene McCarthy still has a few friends from 1972, doesn't make him viable.
Biden showed his viability back in 1988. If you don't remember Joe Kinnock err. Neil Biden's speech in 1988, you could probably ask former Biden staffer and current Huckabee stalwart Eric Woolsen (we had to needle you Eric)--- it wasn't good.
Biden's done his best to try to remind you this summer.
Proud that Delaware is a slave state. Check.
Insulting Indian Americans. Check
Calling those in the Southern part of his state "Slower Lower." Check.
Wait a minute, the more we at the Cooler think about it. You're right David, Biden is viable.
Romney/McCain/Pataki/Giuliani/Huckabee/Allen/Frist v. Biden has a nice ring to it.

David must have had a few belts when he wrote that.
hmmmm... Just like 1998 was Joy Corning's year, he opined....
or when he said Mitt Romney would be the GOP nominee.
Let's all pray to whatever god's we worship, even Richardson's Antler God, that Joe Biden is their nominee.
OMG-is that a target rich environment, like Hamburg or Tokyo in WW2.
