Biden gets the message

I've been among those saying for awhile now that any Democrat who has presidential aspirations in 2008 needs to establish his/her bona fides on the Iraq war. I can't imagine that the party will turn to someone who continues to support the Bush administration's failed policies, even under cover of "supporting the troops."

Sen. Joe Biden, D-Del., has been one of those on the list of presidential hopefuls who has continued to support the war.

No more. In a Washington Post op ed column today, he calls for a timetable for withdrawal.

Can Hillary be far behind?

Biden's change of heart is discussed at TPM Cafe

Make up your mind. Do you want to follow the stupid Cindy Sheehan (get out now) plan, the Feingold, (get out on this date) plan, the Murtha (let’s leave a few thousand troops behind to get slaughtered) plan, or the Biden, (let’s accomplish a set of essential objectives and begin withdrawing troops) plan?

Which mascot of the month are we getting behind? Biden at least makes some sense but he must have stolen the idea from someone else (plagiarized) – probably President Bush.
