Joe Biden voted for the war in Iraq in 2002 and will therefore help Barack Obama with voters who either support the war in Iraq or believe the surge has made things better, even though Barack Obama is at the top of the ticket and the issue that catapulted him to the nomination was his 2002 opposition to the war in Iraq.
Corollary point: How exactly is Biden going to defend during the Vice Presidential debate his ludicrous but passionately argued idea of a few years ago that the United States should unilaterally dissolve the nation of Iraq and divide into three separate countries?
