A Query for Delawareans on the Occasion of Joe Biden’s Long-Winded Soliloquy

Consider this the rude ‘n snarky post of the day. But it simply must be asked. The unfortunate mores of television production allow us to see only the faces of the characters involved in today’s grill session on Judge Alito. Most of the participants have nothing to hide, hair-wise: Alito has a growing bald spot just right-of-center, Coburn is in dire need of some gel, Ted Kennedy has an inebriate mass of unkempt whiteness, Chuck Schumer sports his Brillo with pride, Leahy is sticking with The Mr. Burns, and Feinstein is looking pretty good for her age, as are the rest. With the remarkable exception of Joe Biden—we never are allowed to see him from behind. But just look. He’s got to have a ponytail back there. Just got to. Right, Delawareans?
