It's Joe Biden!
Sen. Barack Obama has picked Delaware Sen. Joe Biden as his running mate. Great choice! Pennsylvania now moves decisively into the Obama column. Biden, an Irish Catholic born in Scranton, will do much to recapture the votes of Democrats in the Anthracite Region who went overwhelmingly for Sen. Hillary Clinton in the primary. Will this lead McCain to pick former Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Ridge, who is pro-choice, to keep his chances here alive? Or cause McCain to write off Pennsylvania entirely and pick a running mate from the GOP's right to shore up his votes there?
