Biden on Daily Show Tonight

Sen. Joe Biden (D-DE) is officially announcing his candidacy for president today, but he will start his day by presiding over a Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing about Iraq at which former Secretaries of State Henry Kissinger and Madeleine Albright will testify. He'll do a teleconference with reporters sometime later today, and will appear on "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart" on Comedy Central at 11:00 pm tonight.

The campaign site is now live, and it is very impressive. It has integrated video, a blog, and links to campaign outposts at YouTube, MySpace, Facebook and Flickr. Biden has posted four "current intiatives," including a Plan for Iraq and a Plan for Energy Security.

UPDATE: Redhorse notes on Psychobilly Democrat that Biden has already come out firing against Hillary Clinton, so "Biden might have a purpose afterall." Ouch!
