HAS OBAMA "MESSED HIS PANTS" IN PICKING BIDEN FOR VP?

[Dee]

Joe Biden is know for putting his foot in his mouth, and does it a LOT. He likes to POP OFF, about things he knows nothing about, AND about things he does know about.
He is arrogant, BUT RASH, and probably as LIBERAL AS OBAMA.
Will he help Obama, or will he SINK Obama?
I believe he quite possibly will do the later, when the rest of the country GETS TO KNOW HIM, in these coming months.
Whaddaya think?

[ms]

The fix is in obama is out four more years of war coming I think.

[tn_junk]

I fear this is another year with only a choice between an impacted wisdom tooth and an ingrown toe nail.
Have to try and figure out which one will hurt the least.

Dee, I believe you are correct. I need to go back & check his record, but if I remember correctly Biden is one of the worst in gun control & other issues that will stir the Conservatives up. IF and it's a big if that McCain picks an actual pro-gun, pro-life, pro-drilling
VP & esp. if that person is a woman, Obama is done.

I am saying all of that from a purely political view, not my personal preference. My personal prefernce is to have some TRUE conservative running that had a chance, but we don't.

[tn_junk]

if that person is a woman, Obama is done.

Condi Rice, and it's all over but the shouting.

I'd just as soon see Obama in as her. The only difference is their anotomical parts are slightly different but they are peas in a pod. If she's on the ticket McCain will not get my vote.

[victorcharlie]

McCain's a liberal himself, if he picks anyone more liberal than he is then I'll write in John Rocker.

He's gonne pick the Governor of Minnesota, Tim Pawlentey.  He has been an ok governor with no real big scandals in his tenure. Tim has hinted that he has a big announcment that he will make on a popular local talk radio show.

[kevthebassman]

That would be a good pick, IMHO.  Minnesota is always a close contest, picking their governor could be enough to swing the state.  This election is going to be one where every state won could make the difference between victory and defeat.

WOW.  That came out of left field.

 Obama just insured his self of not getting my vote. Not he would have any way!!!!!!!!!!!!

Biden is rabidly anti-gun.  He was a big force in pushing for the 1994 "crime bill'.  I remember watching him on a news show during that time period.  I can almost recall his exact words, spinning the words to the 2nd amendment.
Something like ' oooooorrrrrrrrganized militia, which of course means the national guard '. 

This blithering idiot with his odious personality could derail bho's campaign.  At least you would think so.   
This year is bad, like trying to decide whether to remove an inflamed appendix, or to have a hernia operation.

[Graybeard]

In the real world it doesn't matter who is the running mate for either of them and they aren't picking their own but are merely doing what their handlers tell them to do. The folks who are the REAL POWER behind all politics in the world are fully in charge and are making all the decisions. It doesn't even matter who you vote for as the winner will be the one hand selected by the elite super rich of the world. These days all the voting is controlled by computers and all counting is done inside those computers. The final tally will be whatever it is those in charge want it to be.

If 100% of the voting public voted for the same person and that person was not the one those in charge want to win then their choice would still wind up winning. I don't like it but do believe that is the way it works these days. It's not our vote that matters but rather the whim of those who control the outcome of the computer controlled count.

[Chilachuck]

Soros is funding both candidates. Obama is a total flea weight contender. Nothing at all.

I'm very unhappy with McCain, but he has enough experience that he probably will not be a total disaster. I hope.

On a lighter note, check what the Hillary supporters have to say:

Page down to the comments. I especially liked their complaints about corruption and strong arm tactics being used against them.

For me, this happened 46 years ago.

[magooch]

Bill, I think you and TM7 must be sharing some of the same meds.  Not that I have a lot of faith in the vote counts in a lot of places, but by and large I blame the voters of this country themselves and not some nefarious, secret cadre of controllers for the sorry state of politics in this country.  There ought to be an IQ and knowledge test before allowing anyone to vote.  Where else can anyone exercise such an awesome resposibility without a clue?

Not all States are voting on machines. The best system I am aware of is Oregon.

McCain now knows the makeup of the opposing team. Lets hope he gets and follows good advise.
My worst fears were Obama picking Hilary

Re: Condi  That woman needs a looong vacation away from politics

One of the reasons Obama picked Biden is because of his staunch anti 2nd amendment stand. Hillary is on the record saying she supports hunters and recreational shooters and was a shooter herself as a kid.

Obama wants a strong anti 2nd amendment partner so they can huddle with the anti gun crown and blame rural, small town America and small town American people for clutching their guns and religion for all the ills, slime and puke of the big cities problems.Biden is a good pit bull for him here as he firmly believes that gun owners are a cancer in American culture.

Hillary is no friend of the 2nd Amendment or hunting, only a better liar. She never spoke of shooting as a kid until campaining against Obama & perceiving she could gain some ground with blue collar folks & get Obama in the underbelly. I put it with her corkscrew landing, growing up with Hispanics & some of my best friends are black stories. She is a sportsman like I fly the space shuttle on weekends.

My only point about mentioning Hillary being on the record, is just that. Biden is on record with film footage as anti 2nd amendment as one can get. When the TV adds start running, there will be Biden calling gun owners nut cases. If Hillary was the ticket, there's no similar footage. Only footage of her saying the opposite which will be cited by all the talking heads who defend her. We all know Hillary is a liar but what plays well with the majority of Americans during an election is what a candidate "says" not what they have done.

Obama is a staunch non-supporter of the 2nd amendment. He spoke out in support of municipalities that want to pass complete and total gun bans in Illinois. Municipalities like Morton Grove Il have severe gun restriction. You cannot own a hand gun in Morton Grove and other municipalities in Illinois.Residents there literally had to hand in their hand guns to local police or be arrested. This is as anti 2nd amendment as you get, confiscation.

I guarantee you, Obama has a secret agenda with Pelosi, Reed and the anti gun lobby. Together, that will work to enact anti 2nd amendment legislation that will make your head spin. Hillary would have been a political obstacle for Obama in this department. The pro 2nd amendment groups would have palyed that footage of her over and over again every time they started to touch the 2nd amendment.

  I have a feeling that Commy Joe is figuring on being president not long after If Barrak Hussien Obama is elected. I'm with Graybeard on an earlier prediction, that Obama won't be long for this world if elected President. Not htat i would have anything to do with it but just a prediction.

[TribReady]

how about the gaff when Osama anounced Biden as the "next President of the US"

This, and others like it, could go on for ever....and will until November.  Honestly, it's time to start praying for this country again and putting our faith in God's hands

I have suspected this to be the case for some time now.

It's more than the electoral process itself.  I think these people have also compromised most of the checks and balances our founding fathers implemented in our system of government.

Bingo.  One faction of government was meant to balance the power of the other.  Now they cooperate to see how far they can push us.

One liberal pinko picks another  no suprise there, He couldn't pick hillary would you want her one round or heartbeat away from your job if she wanted it? McCaines pick needs to be concidered real carefully given his age as it stands now it is your choice in this election, MUD PIE or DIRT SANDWICH.

[MGMorden]

Unless of course you say,mmmmm.... I'm voting 3rd and 4th party.

Indeed.  I'll be voting for Bob Barr on the Libertarian ticket.  IMHO though even Barr is a pretty poor choice in candidate for the Libertarians.  I have no idea what any of the parties (both the organization and their voting members) were smoking when they dreamed up this election's hopefuls.

Ron Paul honestly would have been a great choice IMHO - he was one of the few candidates that I saw both liberals and conservatives backing.  Pity that his popularity among the general Internet populace didn't translate into popularity at the actual polls .

A Conspiracy theory?

It occurred to me this morning he might not make it to November.  Just think of the riots, violence and chaos.  And guess who would benefit.

Unfortunately, Ron Paul just simply lacked the charisma and leadership presence needed in an TV/media world. Its the reason why Obama is doing so well even know he has no experience and  is clearly unqualified for the job.Not to mention his ideas suck. Most Americans just simply are moved and pursued by words rather then actions and intent. Obama has the charisma and leadership presence that we need in someone like a Ron Paul. Until this happens, strong Constitution candidates like a Ron Paul will always fail when it comes to the national and world stage demands of out TV/Media age.

Sad.
