Yeah...there's less chance of that than Palin winning the GOP nomination.

the only way this happens is if Obama dies in office; no way they cede the 2012 nomination to Biden without a 'fight'.

Responses:

The interesting question there, is will Biden still be the VP nom in '12, or will they want to hand it off to a designated successor? -- nm - znufrii Nov 18, 09:57 11
- What makes you think Biden wouldn't be the designated successor? -- nm - Ender Nov 18, 09:58 6
  - No way he runs in 2016 (assuming re-election) its Hilary or someone new -- nm - MDH Nov 18, 10:01 1
    - Russ Feingold! -- nm - Dano Nov 18, 10:02
  - age & gaffe-proneness -- nm - Roger More Nov 18, 10:01 1
    - oh, for VP? Just age -- nm - Roger More Nov 18, 10:02
  - He might very well be. - znufrii Nov 18, 09:59 1
    - Not enough to look like you made a mistake. If Dan Quayle didn't get replaced, Joe Biden ain't. -- nm - Will Hunting Nov 18, 10:00
- He'll be the nominee barring death. -- nm - Will Hunting Nov 18, 09:58 3
  - Biden isn't intended to be the president. He's the polished veteran helping out the less experienced guy. - David Nov 18, 10:00 2
    - and as such he could walk away from a second term but the party wouldn't make the decision for him -- nm - z6rk Nov 18, 10:02
    - He isn't intended to be President; but the only way he's replaced as VP in 2012 is if he's dead or dying. - Will Hunting Nov 18, 10:02
