  1. So your only evidence is that Biden has experience, and by experience you mean temporal prolongation in a given position? If experience entailed intelligence, your reasoning would therefore lead to the conclusion that President Bush, who has been a long time commander-in-cheif, is one of the smartest people on the topic of presidency, a statement which would generally be denied quite vehemently. Being a chairmember of such-and-such committee counts for "something," but that something says nothing about his intelligence. If, however, you'd like to fall back on your "at least he's not Palin" argument, I will agree with you in that he is not Sarah Palin, nor is he Oscar Wilde, nor is he a cat. The infinite realm of possibilities regarding who Biden is not, however, conveys very little about who he is. You've actually told us more about Palin than you have of Biden, which makes me wonder why anyone should heed your forecast of a "silver lining" when all you have shared about this cloudy character is that he will obscure the clear skies which allow Palin to see Russia from her state.
  2. As a matter of fact, the Gurus' Bible-themed naming was a translation change, completely unrelated to the original game itself. In Japan, they are named Gash, Hash, and Bosh. When it was translated into English, the translators decided that, to to the ears of English speakers, those names were unfitting for "gurus" and that to use Biblical names would sound much more appropriate for wise men.
