Sen. Joe Biden – A Great Choice for America

A statement from Michael Cryor, Chair of the Maryland Democratic Party

"The selection of Senator Biden is smart and strategic. He is extremely capable on matters of foreign policy and international affairs, and his ability to frame the complex issues facing America in simple terms is a gift. As importantly, he will be helpful to the campaign's effort to win the adjacent states of Pennsylvania and New Jersey.

I was privileged to work for him in his first presidential campaign and am confident that Senator Obama's decision to choose him as his running mate will produce the kind of change our nation so desperately needs."
