Great to see all the Liberals squirm. Hee Hee!

If you see squirming, then you have quite the imagination. What I see is acceptance of Biden as a good choice of running mate.

seansezso- Nice post, ever considered a career in comedy?

These guys are a joke. The world must be laughing at the US. At least we know the patriot will be the next Pres.

Looking forward to an election party, another 4 years of greatness.

obama's been touting since Day One that if elected he'd end the good ol' boy, Inside the Beltway style of government in Washington.

So, who does he wind up choosing as his running mate? A guy who's been in the U.S. Senate since the days of Richard Nixon.

Too funny.

Video of Joe Biden - "the pit bull", confirming, as Barack Obama stands next to him, that he does not believe Obama has the experience it takes to be president of the United States of America:

These guys are a joke.

All pomp and insults and no facts or even an attempt at debate. The joke is not those guys.

undecidedbout08, thank for video of incomplete statements matched with incomplete details. It shows exactly how so many Republicans like thier politics pre-packaged in (seemingly) easy to absorb snippets.

Biden said he did not feel Obama is ready now (handily parapharased) but could be (in the future). No date given for the statement. Well, apparently Biden feels Obama is ready now, as he is standing right next to him! Yes, things do change over time (as much as conservates would like to stop time). If he got some information that made him feel Obama is now ready, then the proper course of action is to react to it, not pretend that time has stopped and he is stuck in the past.

I would however like to know exactly what changed his mind. I can't help but feel that was edited out.

But the last part was the best. You just got love it when the propoganda makers choose to cut a man's sentence in half, as if we are all so busy that we only have time for a 32 second campaign ad and no more! "I would be honored to run with or against John McCain because I think the country would be better off....." Better off what? With McCain rather than Obama? Is that what he said? Nope. Here is the rest of the statement, the bit the Republican party held back from your ears: "...be well off no matter who…". The statement ended there. He never got to finish because he was cut off.

Is this the straight talk express??? I always liked McCain's calls for staight talk, but I am afraid his campaigners did not get the message.

McCain has made similar pledges, he is 4 years older than Biden, and has 36 years congressional experience to Biden's 45 years. And what was he doing those other nine years? Why serving with the orignal good 'ol boys, the military wing of the military industrial complex, where he helped get funding for a new supercarrier behind the backs of the Carter admin!

Too funny!

But I don't think either story blocks either side from instigating true and fair reform. Its still a question of which side you trust to do it.

Democrat party insiders are saying Obama panicked when Russia invaded Georgia. Incredibly, he chose Biden.

Obama is a lightweight.

Link undecidedbout08. I want to see this link that says that Obama panicked. < :-)

Rove is doing everything he can to prevent liberman from becoming the VP pick. Of course Mitt is the favorite but he has more baggage than Imelda Marcos on a trip to Paris.

As Newt so concisely put it, the republicans can only nominate pygmies this year as they know its a lost cause.

Dismissing the GOP presidential field as a "pathetic" bunch of "pygmies," Newt Gingrich hinted Monday he might step in to beat Democrats Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barack Obama.

Zurchromium, McCain should go with Romney.

As with many conservatives, he was my man from the time potential conservative nominees started leadin' the pack over others.

Obama screwed the pooch when he didn't pick Hillary. Will that cause him to lose? We'll see. We can only hope.

I do not see Biden as the best choice but he certainly isn't the worst.

mccain chooses Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin for V.P.

What kind of experience does she have with Foreign Policy? She is Obama junior by three years.

Quote: She has recently come under the scrutiny of an investigation by the Republican-controlled legislature into the possibility that she ordered the dismissal of Alaska's public safety commissioner because he would not fire her former brother-in-law as a state trooper.

It is sad really. He is playing the gender card and she seems to be vindicative. {Cat noises!!!!} ;)
