In Tuesday's Letters to the Editor

August 26, 2008 |  8:55 am

Biden's the man in Tuesday's letters, as readers pro and con sound off on Barack Obama's vice presidential pick.  Writes Lucia M. Conforti, of San Pedro:

joseph biden, barack obama, john mccain, Olympics, aid workers, opinion l.a., letters Biden represents everything Obama opposed and attacked during the primaries when it came to Hillary Clinton.  He voted for the resolution to use force against Iraq, and he has been entrenched in Washington politics for three decades.  There's only one word that aptly describes Obama for choosing Biden as vice president: hypocrite.

Don Mac Brown, of Beverly Hills, sees the choice differently:

Biden is the real deal, a politican of impeccable integrity and a great guy.  Not only President Obama, but the American people will be able to rely on Vice President Joe Biden to deliver when the chips are down.

How many houses McCain owns, and suggestions for more accurate Olympic medals counts, too.
