While there has been much talk about Joe Biden's comments at a Seattle fundraiser:

Mark my words - It will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy. The world is looking. We're about to elect a brilliant 47-year-old senator president of the United States of America.

Watch. We're going to have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy.

And he's going to need help . . . to stand with him. Because it's not going to be apparent initially; it's not going to be apparent that we're right.

My problem is not what Biden said - he's extremely prone to gaffes and says stupid things given the opportunity. The problem is that his words are very scary after the previous Wednesday officials from both campaigns met with the Bush Administration to discuss a smooth transition to the next administration due to the terror threats that exist in our current political climate.

Did Biden perhaps slip that something was going to happen after the election that intelligence agencies have alluded to? Regardless of what group is in power, this brings a whole new element in to play as to what Biden was referring to. A terrorist attack? One world currency? Further global economic woes?

Biden was speaking to a group of supporters at this fundraiser. As that was the case, what was meant by the phrase it's not going to be apparent that we're right? Something to do with a war? Perhaps the realization that no matter what administration is in power, they'll be so backed in to a corner that the choices available for what to do from a foreign policy perspective are slim to none.

The McCain camp bringing up how this crisis is to test Obama's mettle is not what worries me, but rather that such a scenario is being talked about, and more importantly from the side that talks about it happening if they win.
