Joe Biden- rides Amtrack all the time between his home and DC. Regular monthly pass holder on the DC Metro too! Will bode well for shoring up the public and rail transportation systems in the country.
Also knows how many houses and cars he owns!

He lives in a "compound" of homes. How many homes are in that compound?

There are 4 homes on that block. His family members live in the others. It is not really a "compound" but simply a public street. You can walk up to any of the front doors of the homes (look at the live shot from FOX). I just saw the mailman walk up there (guess I should not be admitting to watching Faux News Channel but CNN is talking about the Olympics)

Further more, Biden goes home to Delaware and his family every night. Doesn't stay in D.C. and only go home at election time.....like so many of the politicians. His life story really is inspirational. And contrary to what the haters will spout now, Biden really is liked and respected in a town where few are.

And thank God, he'll be off those hearing committees where he talks about everything except the subject at hand just to hear himself talk. Remember the windy talk at the Roberts confirmation, for example. I think he was going for a Guiness World Record. You could have turned it on when he first started to speak, gone out for something to eat, seen a movie, painted your toenails, read a newspaper and he still wouldn't have asked Roberts a question.

How is this anything? Who cares if he friggin' skips his butt to work? The NE corridor Amtrak is just about the easiest way to get to DC from DE--hello!
