Great choice! Down to earth, well respected by everyone.

Two preening popinjays for the price of one -- who'd a thought....
"BULL *** !" ....Joe Biden's statement sample of a US Senator speech !!
Yeah, the Republicweasels are going to be afraid of a Democrat who likes using a baseball bat in a streetfight. It's on now, pukes.
Braes sorry to tell you Iam a dem. have been for more years than you I can bet you on that and have never voted for anything eles but Obama flat lies to win you fools over and as for afraid of you and your bats bring it on i can swing as hard and fast as you and one more thing i hope iam around when all you wake up and really see what a fool Obama has made of you (remember you get what you ask for if you ask anuff so when you living in a tent thank Obama and his rich cronies and people in kyania is living good
Obama ran for Senate on the EXACT platform he is running for President, and he has disappointed Illinois. There is no reality in Change, just unfulfilled Hope for Change. The ticket should be Biden on top with a smooth talking VP, learning from the master what he needs to be President. This is the nail in the coffin McCain has been looking for.
No Pun intended
Change we can believe in....Biden is a career politician that is the polar opposite of what Obama has touted all these months. Guess Obama has changed...he now is doing what he chastised others for. The issue here is he is so self-absorbed he would never take Bidens recomendations regardless of whether they were the right thing to do. America wake up and realize this smooth talker is after nothing more than making history as the first black candidate...and he's not black, his mother was white, remember?
HOWIE FINEMAN:
"In that sense, Obama did her a favor by not really demanding to consider her. She would have had to say "no."
Did her a favor? Sen Clinton wouldn't go near him. Why? She knows more than he does and she knows barry's a fraud. And how much does barry care about the Dem Party when he doesn't seek counsel of any sort from the only Dem President in 28 years and instead listens to and picks a previous pink-faced presidential quitter? Absolutely hysterical.
"The reason, they said, was his foreign policy experience and his knowledge of Washington."
CHANGE! EXPERIENCE DOESN'T MATTER! NO OLD WASHINGTON! hahaha
"He swallowed his considerable pride and all but confessed his lack of knowledge of foreign affairs"
Swallowed? Confessed? It's perfectly clear to all the non-mesmerized that barry has no experience of anything except: CHANGE! change his platform...public financing...I pushed the wrong button.
"And he's never had a hint of financial or sexual scandal."
I hope you still believe this in November. Can you say Edwards?
"He is a street politician who has walked the streets of the planet."
Put the Barack Obama Soda down and step away from the madness.
"He genuinely wants to serve. He kept telling President Bush in the aftermath of 9/11 that he wanted to help him, privately, anytime. Bush, ill-advisedly, never availed himself of the priceless chance."
And just how did he or barry avail themselves in regards to Afghanistan? How many meetings did they have? One? Totally priceless Howie.
"The risks? He can't keep his mouth shut. Sometimes he talks before thinking. He is not always a systematic thinker. He loves to hear himself talk. He can get carried away with his enthusiasms"
Sounds like Mr. Bill. Except Mr Bill has something to say.
"lifted portions of a speech from a British politician."
Isn't that a prerequisite? Barry seems to have it down pat.
"Biden in some ways is the anti-Dick Cheney. And that"s change the party can believe in."
That the best you got, Howie?
I wonder how those two will get along? Obama with his arrogance and facade and Biden with his experience and fairly quick temper. I don't think this a bad choice, now Obama need to wonder if folks are voting for Biden or McCain! At least the country is a little safer with McCain or Biden in charge.
WHEW!!!! I am glad that is over, now the full concertration can be on the issues and defaeating the wealthy guy who does not even know how many houses he owns. I must say, while I would have much rather have seen Mrs. Clinton as the number two, this selection is the second best Obama could have made. It will make the race and chances for sucess, much better-just not as certain as Hilliary would have brought.
Well Senator Obama may have to swallow his words of change and bringing someone outside of the Washington usual politics. Senator Obama speeches about change and hope were "just words". He is not different from any politician who is seeking the highest office. The days of politicians standing firm on their beliefs are long gone unfortunately....
As an independant who was a Hillary supporter I will vote for McCain. The VP decision wouldn't have swayed me one way or the other, even if it was Hillary.
Obama is an attention hound basking in his own glory. The VP pick infuriated me with the long drawn out process trying to build up suspense. I could picture Obama sitting back truly loving all the attention he was getting. His campaign went as far as printing fake bumper stickers to throw people off. Bumper stickers that were paid for by campaign contributions. Great way to use people's hard earned money. If he is elected president I really hope he doesn't manage our tax money in the same way.
It is amazing to me that after all the country has been through for the last 8 years and continue to go through, that some people will take one situation and decide to vote for the other side, not because the person has proven that they can do a better job, but because they don't understand or rather don't want to understand the other person. It is really a sad situation when you realize that at heart there ares some Americans that still cannot look beyond race and that is quite obvious from outsiders looking in. In the last election, the big scare tactic was Gay Marriages. Well guess what, it is slowly moving from state to state. It takes us as a people to make a change and stop falling for politic scare tactics.
We are voting for the next president, so yes Obama is looking for attention. I don't see how you can not be. Is McCain quietly in the corner? No. I hear many co-workers say well blacks are voting for him because he is black, and so what, many Whites are not voting for him because he is black. For years minorities have voted for whites, what if based on what they see and go through in everyday life they just stopped voting. It has never been a problem before. We as a people are so simple minded and scared easily. We need to grow up and not have Fox and CNN tell us what they think, but do some research on our own. And to all the Independents, Lou Dobbs has you fooled. You are independent and doing what? nothing but complaining. If we had no problems, Lou Dobbs would be out of a job. He has no solutions, but hey. God Bless America right!
Once again, Obama showed his instincts for doing the right thing. Biden brings instant credibility on foreign affairs. Sure Biden is prone to gaffes. Bush put up with Cheney's for 8 years.
Once again? Let's see, he told the voters of Illinois he had no intention of running for President; he spent about half of his first term in Congress running for President or not voting; he defended his relationships with racists and left wing radicals and terrorists; he went on a world tour to tell them what a lousy country he comes from and that he wants us to be more like them; he bought real estate under from a political fund raiser at a price that was far less than market value, so where are his "instincts for doing the right thing"? The choice of Joe Biden does not erase history. As far as Biden's gaffes go, over his entire political career they are much less disturbing than the gaffes Obama has made in the past 4 years.
Obama for Change....Change Positions and choose a guy that represents everything I oppose. WTH?
Interesting! Here is the candidate of "change" from the "politics as usual" venue to a brand new way. Well of course this makes sense, Biden hasn't been part of the political system has he? Is this another mixed message from our candidate?
BARACK OBAMA FOUND A FATHER FIGURE AND WILL NOW BE ABLE TO GET ADVISE ON WHAT TO DO IN A CRISIS !! ALBEIT IT WILL BE VIA TEXT MESSAGE LOL !!
Biden is not Catholic. He has excommunicated himself many times over for his scandalous positions that demean human life. Sort of like classifying Lieberman a Democrat. Catholics should not be impressed.
To all Republicans - Grow up!! Its time to get out of White House. Stop whinning (like your top economic advisor said), and see what happens in November!!!
Wow, the Rethugs start with character assassinations already! "His father was a..... gggaassp....used car salesman!" He's "sleezy", Obama is "sleezy". Typical high-school bully mentality. Name-calling, innuendo, gossip, smears. It's no wonder the Republican brand is so tarnished and weak. The High Road is definitely the Road Less Traveled for you and your ilk.
I believe that Joe Biden made the comment in 2006 that he thought that Obama was a very clean person, guess the Rock Star thought that was a compliment. Joe Biden also made the statement that he would be honored to run with or against Senator Mc Cain. Once again Obama has proved my point, he is not in any way shape or form experience to run this country. Bad choices with friends, pastor and now vp running mate.
Does anyone know the corruption obama caused in illinois?
Hear Hear! Wheres the media coverage Newsweek? The only Change Obama has succeeded in, has been his clothes. So Sad!
obama biden laden, osama biden laden oops i think it is obama bin laden
Great safe pick. I wish that it was Hilliary, but this is the best pick. You can get without Hilliary being on the ticket. The win will be close now, but we'l still be able to pull it off.
