Die Hard One Talker

In every hostage-action movie, there is one fast-talking salesman who thinks he can negotiate with his captors.  He’s the first to get it.  Think Die Hard. 

I can’t help but think about that character every time I see a photo of Vice President Biden in China this week.  Biden is trying too hard; he has that Nathan-Detroit look going, and I can’t help thinking that the Chinese are toying with him.  

I hate to be so critical of Vice President Biden.  I genuinely like the guy.  He’s one of my favorite politicians to watch, and I would love to hang out with guy. But couldn’t we send Hillary to China?
