OBAMA-BIDEN EVENT: Springfield, Illinois-LIVE THREAD
08/23/08

Posted on 08/23/2008 11:44:35 AM PDT by TornadoAlley3

Springfield, Illinois We just arrived at the state capitol. We’re told Biden is en route and on the plane Obama spokeswoman Linda Douglass told us that Obama called Biden Thursday night to offer him the job

It is literally 90 degrees warmer than it was on February 10, 2007. The lectern’s all set up with the new Obama/Biden logo. Obama's plane wasn’t changed – the tip that broke Kerry's choice of Edwards in 2004 -- it simply reads “Change We Can Believe In; www.barackobama.com"). A significantly smaller crowd has turned up for this event than the 17,000 for Obama’s presidential roll out....

I did not see a thread on this already, maybe it can be moved to breaking?

Get ready for a huge gaffe as Biden tries to improv on that one.

I was hoping that Obama would pick loud mouth obnoxious Biden, but I kept quiet so as not to jinx it.

Biden: Clean, but overly inarticulate in a long-winded fashion.

Biden: Clean
-———————————————>

Well if you call a few lies and plagiarism “clean” then I guess he's passed the smell test.

If Biden is VP I think we get three for one....Biden, Wexler and Leahy.

Obama picked the wrong running partner, but that's JMHO, coming from a Red State.

I thought it almost had to be Biden.

Realistically, whom else could he have picked, excluding those, of course, who would not take the gig?

Can’t wait for the first “Obama bin Biden” event. I hope I’ve stocked enough popcorn the next week.

Hillary Clinton Statement on Obama’s Biden Pick

“In naming my colleague and friend Joe Biden to be the vice presidential nominee, Barack Obama has continued in the best traditions for the vice presidency by selecting an exceptionally strong, experienced leader and devoted public servant. Senator Biden will be a purposeful and dynamic vice president who will help Senator Obama both win the presidency and govern this great country.”
