Hypocrites and Yahoos, Part 2

A few days ago, I wrote about the gaping hypocricies on view at the Republican convention, concluding that "Yes, they are hypocrites and yahoos....but so are the Democrats, in their own way."

Proof came quickly. Here's Joe Biden, part of the team that's going to bring
change into Washington and change into politics, pandering campaigning in Green Bay:
If the Green Bay Packers won, we got out early. If the Green Bay Packers lost, we got homework. I’m a Green Bay Packer guy since high school!
Ah. The refreshment is palpable. 

I have nothing against Biden, but this archetypal old-school establishment relic was as hypocritical a pick for a campaign screaming about need for change as Palin was for a campaign screaming about need for experience.
