After all, she is on tape snorting cocaine.

Now, will the media give her the "Bush Twins" treatment? Or the "Gore Kid" treatment?

A "friend" of Vice President Joseph Biden's daughter, Ashley, is attempting to hawk a videotape that he claims shows her snorting cocaine at a house party this month in Delaware.

The anonymous male acquaintance of Ashley took the video, said Thomas Dunlap, a lawyer representing the seller.

Dunlap and a man claiming to be a lawyer showed The Post about 90 seconds of 43-minute tape, saying it was legally obtained and that Ashley was aware she was being filmed. The Post refused to pay for the video.

The video, which the shooter initially hoped to sell for $2 million before scaling back his price to $400,000, shows a 20-something woman with light skin and long brown hair taking a red straw from her mouth, bending over a desk, inserting the straw into her nostril and snorting lines of white powder.

So, will this be splashed all over the national media like the silly college drinking escapades of the Bush daughters? Or will the media instead treat Ashley Biden like they did Al Gore III, who has an extensive history of drug and alcohol abuse that generally has stayed out of the papers, even when he was expelled from school , ticketed, or arrested?

This question is particularly relevant given Joe Biden's long history as an advocate of stricter drug laws.
