Joe Biden is a heartbeat away from the presidency.

Joe Biden is a weak link in the Obama campaign chain. 

He was Obama's pick for VP and he is clearly not presidential material. Despite the conventional professional political wisdom that the VP has little effect on the voters selection of the POTUS candidate, in this election, Biden indisputably marginalizes Obama.

The ominous potentiality that Biden might become president should be incentive enough to wean voters away from Obama to Romney. Romney could effectively exploit this weakness by a series of  explicit ads showing Biden smiling in the Oval Office pondering how to explain the perverse Obama term "growth recession."  

Obama has a great, genuinely envious, political knack for selling hope. A job made more difficult by an environment plagued with economic anxieties for consumers and corporations. Frankly, it may be Obama's remarkable, oratorical capabilities that prevents consumers from further spending reductions and corporations from further hiring contractions, which would if not ameliorated, bring us all closer to the to the precipitous fiscal crisis. Biden in the oval office would make us jump off, not hold back.

Watch for the R squared ticket to focus squarely on the Biden weak link.
