Joe Biden's Hair
For decades, rumors have swirled about whether Delaware Senator Joe Biden has had a hair transplant to combat hair loss. At least one so-called "hair expert" has said that the appearance of Biden's hairline indicates that the senator and vice presidential candidate has had hair plugs implanted. Biden has not commented on the matter, saying he wants "to keep some mystery in my life."Politico: Biden's Helmet (August 24, 2008)
