Biden On Board

Posted by: Michael S. Kerr | 08/23/2008 8:17 AM

After weeks of speculation, the Obama ticket is now official. Senator Joe Biden of Delaware has been selected as Barack Obama's vice presidential running mate. The McCain camp wasted little time responding to the pick. They will no doubt get some mileage out of this one:


                   


It will be interesting to gauge Hillary Clinton's level of enthusiasm at the upcoming Convention. Here's a statistic worth noting: Hillary received 18 million votes in the primary. Joe Biden, he was a candidate, received roughly 9500 votes.

While Clinton has promised to control her renegade delegates, they look primed for an all out revolt in Denver. In another twist that's sure to raise some eyebrows, it's being reported that high level Clinton supporters have recently met with McCain operatives. This should be fun!

That is powerfull!! Why is the main streem media ignoring this? In that clip it sounds like he would rather support mcCain then Obama. I am sick of this left bais in the media. They burried the rev. wright story until they had no choice. I think the biden pcik should fall right into our laps but it has to get into the hands of the voters.
