However, this year, given McCain's age and Obama's security issues (needing secret service coverage earlier than any other candidate... almost as soon as he started running) I'd say there's a good chance the VP this time could end up President.

I'd be curious to see numbers on how influenced voters really are by the VP candidate.
Honestly, talking to my friends and family that are still on the undecided/independent side of things - they say that after the last eight years, the VEEP candidate matters a lot. Or at least a lot more than it has in the past.

Regarding Biden, I think he's a good choice for Obama.
