1. Wow I wasn't expecting this so soon.

Congrats to Senator Kaufman :) - I think.

2. I wasn't either

That was so fast and quiet.

If Joe thinks it is a good choice, then I trust that it is.

"Biden described Kaufman as “the very best” Minner could have chosen."

3. actually, that sounds like a good compromise...

someone who will vote as Biden would have if he was still Senator, but who's not tied up in the politics for 2010. Those commenters at Delaware Online should be happy for that, but they just don't get it.

4. Well, Joe won the seat by over 60% I think so they are the minority

Personally, I think this is a good pick Delaware will have someone who would vote as Joe would and then a fair election in 2010 to decide who will be their next Senator.

5. watching segment about it on KO now... nt

6. said Biden will be sworn in to next Senate term in early Jan, then resign

interesting - I guess if Kaufman is retiring 2010 then they don't need more seniority. Will Joe host any SFRC hearings or let Kerry get started? Hmmm.
