Default Names
"Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama on Saturday named Delaware Senator Joseph Biden as his vice-presidential running mate . . ."

What is it about that combination of names that I don't like?

I know, it reminds me too much of Osama bin Laden every time I hear it.

(NOT TO MAKE ANY COMPARISON!!! . . . just the names bug me).

Anyone else?

Cherie

Sorry about that Sally . . . it's a habit for me to associate names to something, or else I'll forget.

Like David Archuleta (the kid from American Idol). I had to remember David "Armadillo" in order to retain his last name.

Oh dear . . .

Cherie

I didn't think anything about it until the news did. lol

It doesn't sway my vote at all so that's good.
