All those that support Joe Biden for VP Post Here....

[nomaco-10]

YAY Joe.

Love you and Obama for the guts to pick a guy from a state with no electoral votes.

Gutsy move by a gutsy candidate.

Nothing but love for Barack and Joe.

[Bobbie Jo]

1. Obama/Biden '08

:kick:

[saltpoint]

2. I pity the Republican who's going up against this 1-2 punch team.

[dkf]

3. Getting even MORE excited by the minute.

And I am still waiting for my text!

[blonndee]

4. Completely on board!

Very, very happy. And may I say, RELIEVED!?!?!

[goclark]

95. ditto ~ Fired Up and Ready for Joe!

[gmudem]

5. I can't wait to see Biden debate whatever stooge the GOP trots out there

I'm salivating at the thought of a Biden-Romney debate. Biden would shred that joker to pieces.

[Rowdyboy]

6. Joe Biden is VERY close to my first choice for vice presdient....he'll kick ass

[Eurobabe]

7. Been behind this since January 3rd

The night that Joe left the primaries. :D

[usregimechange]

8. here

[GrizzlyMan]

9. Great pick

This reminds me of the feeling I had in 92 when Clinton picked Gore. We're gonna win.

(didn't feel that way in 2004 with Edwards, even though I tried to convince myself I did)

[frankly_fedup2]

45. Biden has the strengths that Obama lacks. Biden was his best choice (nt)

[nomaco-10]

62. We'll take it. Even though it was an off handed .....

compliment of sorts.

It's all good.

[chiefofclarinet]

10. I support Obama/Biden, but...

I would love to see the Obama/Biden '08 campaign signs popping up. However, it's not official yet. I think it's a little premature until Obama introduces the VP candidate.

[chiefofclarinet]

51. OK, NOW it's official

Correction to my previous post. (granted, I could just edit my post, but that's no fun)

Now that it is official, YAY!!! The only way it could have been better is the ticket reversed, but this is also great.

[renegade000]

11. checking in

you know, i supported biden in the primary, but i think i like seeing this combination better, with obama at the top and biden as vp.

[A-Schwarzenegger]

12. Compared to the others?

Yeah.
Biden'll keep it real interesting & lively,
because like I said a buncha times, he's a natural-born
blovioblabbertoritarian.
Obama better have the hose ready to put out them Joefires.

[carpediem]

13. happy if Biden is it. n/t

[Naturyl]

14. On board 100%.

This team will eat Repukes for every meal. With some fava beans and a nice Chianti.

[opihimoimoi]

15. Our 2 dudes gonna kick ass...Obama/Biden will win enough Hearts and Minds

to win this most important of all our elections since the Start of the Nation when G Washington was President

Good move and got my full support

[WheelWalker]

16. I've bought the ticket and I'm climb'n aboard.

[AllentownJake]

17. Joe Biden is da man

39. It'll be interesting to hear what PA-ers say! keep us posted. nt

[tandot]

18. This is going to be one KICK-ASS-TEAM

The republicants are already p*ssing their pants!

[farmboxer]

19. Biden Good. What about losing a Dem Senator? We can't afford to lose

a Dem Senator.

I like Biden, good choice, but still worried about losing a Dem Senator. Can we get that seat back?

[blonndee]

21. In Delaware? With Biden's support?

[VolcanoJen]

37. No worries.

It's Delaware. He's Joe Biden. He'll annoint. :-)

[treestar]

83. There's a Dem governor

Delaware is a blue state.

[mvd]

129. And there's another advantage

No loss of a Senator.

[mzmolly]

20. Posting

here. :hi:

[JI7]

22. i do

[Eyes_wide_ open]

23. I have no problem with this ticket

and can support it wholeheartedly. Apparently there was a leak while I was out tonight, but I have to say I really admire the way the campaign was able to keep the news locked up as long as they did. I was really hoping for Clark, but perhaps they have something else in mind for him.

From what I've seen of Sen. Biden he's definitely a fighter, and it should be a calming influence to those worried about BO's lack of experience. Obama/Biden '08 ... yep, I can get behind that.

[HughMoran]

24. I like Biden

He was quite entertaining during the primaries - not a stick in the mudd like some old-time senators.

He's tough and he appeals to older and young voters alike.

I think it's a good pick.

[mokawanis]

25. Biden is a great choice

He's smart as all get-out and has a lot of experience with foreign policy. I'm very happy with Obama's choice.

[TheDonkey]

26. Love it Love it! Love it! Love it! Love it! Love it! Love it! Love it! Love it!

[Erin Elizabeth]

27. I likey.

[scheming daemons]

28. It's a great choice.... absolutely great

[democrat2thecore]

29. Joe is THE man! -nt

[Raine]

30. GREAT Choice

has my total support!!! :thumbsup:

[marlakay]

31. I think we have a great chance with him

and i feel much better about him than others.

[KAZ]

32. I'm on board!

[VolcanoJen]

33. I'm stoked!!!!! Formidable ticket, I'm very pleased!

OBAMA-BIDEN 08!!!!!

[intheflow]

34. I support the ticket.

I would have preferred Bill Richardson, but you can't have everything. Biden is certainly a worthy choice. :)

[Muttocracy]

35. yay Obama! nt

[TexasObserver]

36. YAY Joe

[trashcanistanista]

38. Yeah, I like Biden. I am very happy with his choice.

[mcctatas]

40. Me, me, me, me.....

I am all twitterpated at the prospect of their combined intelligence and abilities!!!!

[nomaco-10]

53. It's a great night.....

to be a dem.

I'm going to bed now knowing that I'm 99% sure he is our VP candidate and the talking heads on the cable and network news channels can pick apart and disect Obama's descision all they want this weekend, but I know in my heart we have the best VP pick in 8 years.

I'm good with that.

[NYC Liberal]

41. I'm excited!!

[goodgd_yall]

42. Joe IS the guy

:bounce:

[chill_wind]

43. Yes! Go get 'em Joe. He'll chew up McCain and spit him out good.

I'm extremely pleased. K & R

[nomaco-10]

46. I was convinced of one thing for certain and after tonight, now two....

Obama will wipe up the floor with mcsame in the debates and will turn the poll numbers into a landslide, culminating into victory numbers in November and Biden will obliterate any VP opponent mccain chooses for him to go up against.

WE'VE GOT A GREAT TICKET AND THE WINNING TEAM IN NOVEMBER!

[CreekDog]

44. Rhetorically, Biden is worth more than 3 electoral votes

you can count on that.

that VP debate will be stronger for us than in 2004 (Edwards did reasonably well), and incredibly stronger than Lieberman's awful performance in 2000.

[PCIntern]

47. Very relieved and pleased...

he's bright, quick, experienced, has recovered from extraordinary personal tragedy, and is articulate.

[monomach]

48. Yo Joe!

[Jennicut]

49. I totally support this choice, i have always liked Biden's straight talk

He is the real straight talk express not that other loser, MCwhatshisname. Biden will not take crap from anyone in the media, from any of the Rethugs. He will go after them big time.

[SeattleGirl]

50. I do!

Can't wait to see them in action, kicking GOP butt.

59. Yay ! Here.

[quakerboy]

57. Im down

[Frank Booth]

58. Fine with me.

Better choice than Bayh or Kaine.

[Duer 157099]

60. Don't know if I posted here yet, but if not, doing so now!

I'm as excited as I was on election day in Nov 2004, and then again in 2006. Here's hoping 3 times is a charm.

[elshiva]

61. OK. But, would have supported almost any Dem for VP.

I think it's a conservative move on Obama's part.

[JohnnyCougar]

63. Fuck yeah

I supported Biden for VP back in March. He fits in perfectly with this campaign.

[mmonk]

64. Present.

[blogslut]

65. Absolutely

:)

[Independent_Voice]

66. I support him because he's a solid, if underwhelming, choice

Now let's hope he doesn't say anything that gives ammunition to the GOP.

[Zynx]

67. I got so excited I couldn't go back to sleep.

[Pushed To The Left]

68. I'm very happy with Obama's choice! Go OBiden! n/t

O & JOE!

Let's break out the ammo.

[HughBeaumont]

70. I think he chose well.

I had a feeling it was going to be him all along.

[SharonRB]

71. I'm so happy I could cry

I kept waking up all night to check my phone and finally saw it at 4:30. Message had come through at 3:06, but I didn't hear it. No way I could go back to sleep, so here I am.

What a fantastic ticket we've got!

72. I'm predicting a 4-5 point jump in all the polls by tuesday. n/t

[my3boyz]

73. Two thumbs up! nt

[On the Road]

74. Well, Biden is Clean and Articulate

He's got that going for him.

[medicswife]

75. We're pulling for you Barack and Joe, this was the ticket that

would get me up and out to canvas etc. This is the ticket that has me pulling out my wallet again, even though our finances are tight. This is the ticket, folks! Let's take back Washington!

[AlinPA]

76. Let's go Joe, kick some rpig ass.

81. IMO, Joe is an excellent choice!

Props to Team Obama for again being smart and acting smart!

:applause:

[lamp_shade]

82. Happy Camper here!!!

[MH1]

84. I'm VERY happy with Biden as veep.

My only (minor) disappointment is that I kinda wanted Obama to come up with a GREAT but totally unexpected pick, to show up the media's idiocy. (That would have been sweet.) But it's more important that we have a good veep on the ticket, and I think Biden is an excellent choice, so I'm happy!

[vaberella]

85. I'm supportive 110% n/t

[bronxiteforever]

86. Formidable Candidate with election pull into Pennsylvania too

R's will have to spend a boat load of money in PA to counter this pick. The PA media market is very expensive too.
Color PA blue this fall!

[AspenRose]

87. Me!

:bounce:

[treestar]

88. Hey we have three electoral votes!!

And three counties! :rofl:

Those three votes were probably Obama's anyway, so you're right.

But nowadays state pride isn't enough, so I think they were right to pick a good campaigner rather than hope to get one particular state with a pick aimed at that.

[countingbluecars]

89. I'm happy with the choice. nt

I like Biden, and think he's going to be a great attack dog. Sure, there is some baggage but Biden is a freaking warrior. I think they complement each other well.

[CrispyQ]

94. Count me in! --nt

[bdamomma]

96. Biden is a good choice

I am very happy for the both of them. What great news!! We are going to bury and burn McInsane.

Remember back to the Presidential Debates when each of them said, yea, Joe's correct.

[many a good man]

97. 110% behind ticket

Biden was the best of all the possible picks. I've cussed at Joe as often as I've praised him, but no one has shown more tenacity at tearing into the neocon agenda as Joe has.

Great pick, Obama! Joe is going to take you over the top!

[Sparkly]

98. Of course!

[kwenu]

[That Is Quite Enough]

116. Let The Fireworks

[Dem_4_Life]

119. I am so excited!

[DeschutesRiver]

120. Am coming up to speed

on who Joe Biden is, and from everything I read (bad and good), I think this was a pretty wise move. In fact, the more I learn about Biden (gaffes included), Obama has used his brain again, no matter what the temporary initial fallout is over the choice (unlike McCain, who doesn't have one to use).

I haven't found much yet about Biden that I loathe; and many things that are pretty good - isn't afraid to speak his mind, has been around the block experience wise but is not a typical insider (takes the train, doesn't do lobbyists, has been in the know but stayed outside the corruption track), heard he is okay on the environment, and so on. And he will be the go to man to attack McCain's stupidity and silliness, so that we don't have to hear a certain segment of america bitching about that "angry young black man" - yeah, that characterization pisses me off too, but you know if Obama properly were to knock the snot out of McCain, as he richly deserves, that is all we'd hear about, and it would set back his personal goals of taking the higher ground.

So he's picked what appears to be a tough minded, been through personal fire, stayed on course with his moral compass kind of white guy who can simply knock the stuffing out of McCain, as needed, yet be kind and diplomatic where it is called for as well. Yeah, he has positions I may not agree with, but so does Obama. And I still think of our two choices, Obama is the right man for the times. Feeling the same way about this Biden guy.

Not bad.

[MsLeopard]

121. Obama/Biden!!!

They've got my vote!:patriot:

[CTLawGuy]

122. Go Biden

[Overseas]

[TheDoorbellRang]

124. Obama/Biden '08

An awesome ticket!:thumbsup:

[GoesTo11]

125. Not gutsy. Just smart and realistic. What a nice change.

I don't need a President who's all about symbols, spin. I don't need a president who needs to be lauded for his willingness to take risks and go with his gut. There is just a lot of work to do. No-drama continues to not make it all about himself, but instead just gets right down to the hard work of building a solid campaign. Loves it.

[K Gardner]

126. Vice President Joseph Biden ! There was NO better choice.

[Debi]

127. Great ticket! I'm still pinching myself!

GO JOE!!!! :bounce:

[mvd]

128. I do

I am a liberal who is wary of where the Democratic Party has gone. Between all the moderate and conservative Democrats in Congress and even a lack of leadership in a liberal like Pelosi, I have been very disappointed. I really did not like Obama's FISA vote, and still hold a very sore spot with Biden's bankruptcy vote.

But what some don't realize is that, it's only with a Democrat in the White House that we have any chance of turning Bush's damage around. And there are still clear contrasts - who they would select for the Supreme Court, choice, health care, the environment, not having a unitary executive, etc.

Biden rounds out Obama's ticket with experience and an attack dog sensibility. He has a working class ethic that should help solidify our base. Even though Schweitzer was one of my top 3, I was concerned his strengths were too similar to Obama's.

[bushisanidiot]

130. Obama/Biden 2008 kick!

woo hoooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ronnykmarshall]

131. This Hillary supporter thinks the world of Vice President Biden!

[adamuu]

133. He will make a good watchdog

I expect Biden to be succinct and biting in his counter-attacks, like Obama was during the primaries. Very nice choice by Obama.
Foreign policy experience is a beautiful compliment...
I'm sad to bring this up this but, a son in Iraq...
I see lots of positives in this choice.

[Blue_Roses]

[adamuu]

136. And the fewest interstate highways miles of all states

"Love you and Obama for the guts to pick a guy from a state with no electoral votes."
Delaware is also known for receiving very little benefit from the National Highway System. Just 95 goes through its northern tip, and two auxillary highways take you a only a little further south. It has the fewest total miles of all the states. (D.C. has fewer total miles.) (http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/reports/routefinder/table3.htm) There is no interstate highway that reaches its capital city, Dover. This is true of only 4 other states. They are AK, MO, NV and SD.

Why is this significant? Delaware makes up for its lack of national highways by building an excellent state highway network accommodating both local traffic and an absurdly bloated tractor-trailer traffic problem. On the other hand, Ted Stevens builds a bridge to nowhere.

[totodeinhere]

137. It's an outstanding ticket. On to the White House!

Been a long time since I last posted, but i just wanted to check in to share my enthusiasm about this ticket!

Obama/Biden '08

Let's rock!

[Mz Pip]

142. He was my first choice for President

so I am thrilled that he is on the ticket. He's smart and brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the ticket. He's not a rich out of touch politician.

And he's not afraid to get in the trenches and throw a few grenades if need be. And they will be needed.

[azmouse]

143. I like it.

It's a solid ticket and they have a very real shot at fixing what is wrong with this country.

I can hardly wait til January to see them in action.

GObama! GoBiden! :patriot:

I'm still very unhappy with some of his votes, and their potential to come back and bite him in the ass, but his speech convinced me he's on board for real.

[CheekyLilMonkey]

168. He makes Obama look safer to vote for

A lot of people afraid to vote for Obama will be reassured by having a VP candidate with experience and GRAVITAS :-)

But it was still a slam against Hillary supporters. They could have handled it better.
