Dela-Where? Dela-Who?

Sure, we all get a bit overwhelmed when it comes to keeping track of just who's running for president. Just as soon as Tommy Thompson leaves the race, Fred Thompson jumps in.

But in MSNBC's promotional website image for tonight's New Hampshire debate among the Democratic presidential candidates, Delaware Senator Joe Biden is not featured in a collage of all the participants. (And no, the photo is not limited to three frontrunners – Gravel, Kucinich, Dodd and Richardson are all in the collage.)

A phone call to Biden's national press secretary Mark Paustenbach confirmed the senator will be taking part in tonight's event, even with the campaign's reported focus on Iowa. (A voicemail left at MSNBC's press office has yet to be returned.)

I know for a fact that Joe Scarborough had a great chat with Biden two weeks ago on "Morning Joe" -- I was there, man -- and that the graphics MSNBC is using on-air include Biden, but still ... it's an omission worth noting.
