BIDEN A WASH

First polling on Obama's choice of Biden is in, from the Washington Post:

Barack Obama's choice of Joe Biden as his running mate is unlikely to shake-up the presidential horse race. In a new Washington Post-ABC News poll completed last night, three-quarters of voters said picking Biden would not sway their votes one way or the other. And about as many said they would be more apt to support Obama with Biden on the ticket as said the choice would make them less likely to vote Democratic on Election Day (13 to 10 percent).

Well, at least Biden doesn't appear to be doing any harm...so far.  The results also reflect the fact that people look at who's leading the ticket.
