Former press baron derides Joe Biden - from his jail cell

Just after Rupert Murdoch's New York Post comes out in favour of Senator John McCain, Conrad Black has weighed in to in the US presidential election with his considerable opinion. The convicted former owner of the Daily Telegraph has written a column in Canada's National Post - another paper he used to own. Black attacks Obama, praises Sarah Palin but reserves most venom for Joe Biden. "She is a naturally popular person, and a contrast with Joe Biden, a monotonous leftist journeyman, full of pretension and loquacity, a plagiarist (from Neil Kinnock of all people) with hair plugs." Looks like Conrad is missing journalism from his jail cell.
