I really like Joe Biden...

[MonkeyFunk]

he's undoubtedly got the best sense of humor of all the candidates.

He cracks me up sometimes.

[graywarrior]

1. I never thought I'd say the same thing.

Never.

[MonkeyFunk]

7. I never expected to like him, either

but there you have it. I always thought he was a camera-whore with no filter between his brain and his mouth. I still believe that, but I look upon it more favorably now.

[Captain Hilts]

21. Same here. He's won a lot of points with me. nt

[monmouth]

2. Dodd is great, he smacked snarky Edwards right down...Love it.

[MonkeyFunk]

5. Yes

Dodd was very good. I think Edwards is hurting himself badly. That "planted question" crack was just dumb, and certainly inappropriate to the question.

[daninthemoon]

3. He's such a smart ass. My kinda guy, and obviously so very smart.

[MonkeyFunk]

6. Yeah....

he's having too much fun tonight. Running for President shouldn't be that fun :D

[Yael]

4. I like him a LOT too

He is my #2. If he doesn't get the nod, I hope that he lands in a high profile spot (Sec of State?) in the new administration.

I would be proud to vote for him in the GE.

[ronnykmarshall]

15. My #2 as well.

He moved up past Edwards and Obama for me in the past month.

[MonkeyFunk]

16. Same here....

he's now my #2

[still_one]

8. The same Joe Biden, who when alito was being confimed spent 25 minutes

out of 30 minutes pontificating his own importance, instead of spending time asking alito direct questions relating to his judicial philosophy

The same Joe Biden, who insured that the credit card companies were protected from the bankrupcy laws.

[MonkeyFunk]

10. Yes, that Joe Biden

he's got a great sense of humor, and I like him. But as I said above, I think he's quite the egomaniac.

But you can't say he's not smart, or that he doesn't have a sense of humor.

[still_one]

12. Nope, you are right, he is intelligent, just don't want him as president /nt

[PatSeg]

32. You're right, he IS intelligent and I DO want him for President!

[Yael]

17. No question, his ego knows no bounds

but he knows foreign policy.

[Captain Hilts]

23. That's an important qualification for the presidency. nt

[Hieronymus]

18. Yes. "I like you, you're the real deal"... that Biden.

[AX10]

9. I'm voting for him in the primary.

:kick:

[monmouth]

11. Me too....

[Captain Hilts]

22. Me three. nt

[ronnykmarshall]

13. I do too.

He might just pull up in the polls.

Picture it.

Bakersfield, California 2004.

My mom in the early stages of the race told me "I think Kerry might get the nomination".

She also says the same about Biden, and she and my step dad are MAJOR Hillary supporters. Bill Clinton was one of the reasons they became democrats.

[Joe the Revelator]

14. This is quickly turning into his coming out party

Some great lines tonight. He's smart to keep it light.

[MonkeyFunk]

19. Yeah

I agree, it's a smart approach to stay above the fray.

[PatSeg]

34. It sets him apart, which is important now

People get tired of the usual politics very quickly.

[Think82]

20. It's about friggin' time

[saltpoint]

24. I believe Biden will finish in one of the top 3 positions in Iowa, with

Edwards and Obama in the other two -- close-bunched with none of the 3 very far from the other 2 and no idea of the order until late that January night.

[Debi]

25. He has been consistent in these debates.

Got one hell of a brain on him!

[PatSeg]

35. The answers come quickly and easily for him

and it really shows.

[faithfulcitizen]

26. He really nailed it tonight, in my book!

GO JOE!

[Think82]

27. He actually wins every debate. It's jsut more people are paying attention IMO

[PatSeg]

36. Did you watch the post debate on CNN

They totally ignored the lower tiered candidates, as if they weren't there.

[jillan]

28. I really like Joe Biden too - just incase some of you didn't know that.

:patriot:

[demommom]

29. Me too!!

:toast:

[kad7777]

30. JOE BIDEN is the best we have

The Senator was absolutely brilliant, as usual in these debates. Americans have a chance to elect one of THE BEST Presidents this country will ever have. Joe's sincerity, passion, knowledge, and experience never fails to grab my attention. He never fails to move my soul for the good of our country.

[Odin2005]

31. Joe kicked some major ass tonight!

I'm still in shock that he said "Impeachment"!

[PatSeg]

37. It took a minute for me to realize he actually SAID it!

It was conveniently ignored in the post debate coverage - duh.

[bullwinkle428]

33. Fantastic response to the mother of the Marine in the audience

about the threat of war with Iran...
