Let's see, he went to college and that was paid by whom ?

He was a "community activist" yet made enough money to jettison to the national arena and actively seek the presidency with just 143 days of US Senate experience under his belt. I know he did a great job for Illinois as a state employee there. He did sign 2 bills that became law while a US Senator.

He and his wife were represented as wealthly, power-broker lawyers who gave it all up to be the first family, yet they didn't start making real money until the election was over and they got into office. I smell another book deal in the making.

I think the real distinction between the two is that Mitt made his money and fame thru the private sector and B.O. and wife made theirs compliments of the tax payers. I will pick the private sector guy any time.

As for Joe Biden, he is the cheapest man I know. Never tipped once, and that says a lot about a person. As many Delawareans would agree, if it was not for a horrible, personal tradegy, Joe would have never been voted in. B.O. got voted in because of the US Ecomomy becoming a tradegy. That is how B.O. & Joe are similar: they rose up from tradegy
