In election 2012, all flight patterns lead to Ohio.

Even with just hours left before the polls close, the campaigns aren't missing a chance to drum up a few last votes in Ohio. Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan were both scheduled to be in Cleveland for an Election Day rally today, and Joe Biden added to the fun by making an unannounced visit. The result: tarmac hell. CNN's Rachel Streitfeld tweeted this picture, showing all three men's planes at Cleveland-Hopkins International Airport (Air Force Two is the one in the background):

$10 says Biden gets on the wrong one.

I look forward to watching Joe selling closeout jewelry on late night TV for many years to come.

[snarkytart]

lol

[Huskrrrr]

Enjoy the ride will it lasts, Plugs

“$10 says Biden gets on the wrong one.”

That’s what the Secret Service is for. Unless of course the RR campaign introduces them to Columbian hookers on the tarmac.

That happens, all bets are off.

[Kickass Conservative]

I can’t take that bet. Thanks for the chuckle.

[NYRepublican72]

Which planes cost less to operate? Enjoy your last rally, Slow Joe.

[DakotaGator]

The Secret Service must’ve been going nuts!

[who knows what evil?]

As for me; I would LOVE to hear this line on syndicated television in the near future: “Peter; I’ll take Barack Obama to block.”

[Gay State Conservative]

I hope Ole Joe wasn't hurt.

[austinaero]

Does Biden even know what a plane is? Does Biden even know what state he is in? Enquiring minds what to know!

[Churchillspirit]

Thanks for a good laugh on a rather tense day.

[tophat9000]

In the photo our plane is ahead;)

[ConservativeMan55]

Bttt

[N. Theknow]

“It’s good to be here in Iowa.”

[Political Junkie Too]

Road rage?

-PJ

[Red Badger]

$10 says he won’t know it until it takes off.........

[Cyman]

Sure hope Joe had the pizzas there in 20 minutes or less. The training period can be a beeeatch especially when you use a jet for delivery.

[JFC]

That was funny!

[RightField]

The DNC reimburses the govt for campaign use of AF2, right?
Right. /s

[Venturer]

I thought Michelle’s plane was Air Force Two.

Who is Joe Biden?

[offduty]

Maybe Joe was just being a nice guy and delivering Paul Ryan’s plane to him early....after all, Joe won’t be needing it after tonight... He can catch a Greyhound back to DC.

[reg45]

Moochelle’s plane has to be a 767, 777, or other widebody model.

[ArrogantBustard]

Moosechelle's plane is an A380:

Overweight, oversize, and NOT American.

[ConservativeInPA]

Good one

[COBOL2Java]

I thought Michelle’s plane was Air Force Two.

Who is Joe Biden?

Code name: Squirrel One.

[ne1410s]

Does Biden even know what state he is in?

BiteMe is permanently in the state of confusion.

[haircutter]

W H O .....Is paying the expenses for Air Force One and for

Air Force Two???? Is this a tax payer expense??? answers

needed....

[bray]

Probably thought he was in Green Bay!

Pray for America

[alloysteel]

Awkward....

[Eagle of Liberty]

From the article: “It’s not yet clear where Biden’s going, according to pool reports.” ROFLMAO!! Won’t say the city right anyway!

[LetsRok]

I thought zipperhead Joe took Amtrack?

[Grams A]

Which planes cost less to operate?”

I know which planes cost we taxpayers less to operate.

[Colonel_Flagg]

$10 says Biden gets on the wrong one.

Post of the day. Thanks!

The DNC still has unpaid 2008 bills:

Check all these unpaid bills from the bankrupt DNC:

Plugs isn’t sure what century or state he’s in, let alone what city he’s going to.

[proudpapa]

Anybody besides me think it’s odd that Obama is taking the day off to play basketball?

I can’t imagine such a dumb political move to make on election day...

[JustaCowgirl]

I think it’s pretty clear he doesn’t know what state he’s in. Whether he knows what a plane is — that’s up in the air.

[WVKayaker]

The DNC reimburses the govt for campaign use of AF2, right? Right. /s

True. They pay for a one-way ticket to each stop. All we can do is pray they can't get through the TSA grope!
