LETTER TO THE EDITOR:

Maybe Democrats picked wrong man

Sat, Aug 30, 2008 (2:02 a.m.)

Are the Democrats who attended their party’s national convention in Denver feeling buyer’s remorse? Maybe Sen. Joe Biden would have made a better candidate for president.

Barack Obama’s pick for vice president is chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and has more than three decades’ experience in the U.S. Senate. Obama has been a senator for less than four years.

No matter. A wise political commentator said you can’t gain experience by depending on someone else’s experience. And anyway, they say people don’t vote for the vice president.
