As a long-time Biden supporter, may I just say,

[gateley]

that it warms us through and through to see such enthusiasm and support for Biden from so many of our DU friends! :grouphug:

BUT --

What I really wanted to comment on was - I thought Obama's speech today was absolutely masterful! Obama ROCKED and brought it home!

I think we have an outstanding ticket, and I know that Obama and Biden will do us proud.

Bring it on!

3. I've been a Biden supporter since day one as well. Both did a

spetacular appearance today! I know they have a lot of people to convert, but together I think they can do it!

[gateley]

12. They both have so much to give and to bring individually --

together -- LOOK OUT BELOW! :pals:

5. Congratulations!

I'm happy for you guys. It's well deserved. Biden deserves this, if there ever was someone who deserves this.

[gateley]

9. Honestly, I think it's congratulations to us ALL. We have an AMAZING ticket

with two exceptional men who are going to fight for us and for a better America. (Boy, that sounded corny - but I mean it!)

6. Glad you're happy with Obama's choice as

I and most of the, dare I say, whole Democratic Nation, gately:)

[gateley]

10. I'm so thrilled with the both of them! If the excitement on DU is any

indication of the feelings "out there", then we're going to absolutely steamroller those mofos. :hi:

19. The thing about Obama is that he's a real strategist

Not one to make a dumb move. A quality high up on the list of traits a President should have. Al Gore and John Kerry came up a bit short in that regard and the GOP took full advantage. Barak Obama, of course, has the benefit of seeing those earlier campaigns. He's playing much better defense and going on the offense to make McCain react. Picking Biden really ups the ante on McCain. I honestly don't think he can find a running mate who can match Biden.

Obama-Biden is reminiscient of Clinton-Gore....a great ticket that proved a great team in the Executive Branch. Joe Biden would help any ticket, but, with Barak Obama, he'll be even better. We now have an even bigger reason to feel hopeful about our future.

14. We do have an outstanding ticket. One of the best Democratic tickets in my....

...lifetime...:thumbsup:

[WheelWalker]

15. I'm SO thankful.

[Colobo]

17. I always liked Biden and I'm very happy to see him as Obama's VP.

[jillan]

18. You called this ticket over a year ago.

A great team.

[Pennie109]

20. It's a great ticket!

The best ever. I feel very confident about these two men. The press will tear them down, the Repubs will do their dirty work but I think in the end Obama-Biden will win.

:kick: :party: :party: :party:

21. You guys have got to be on cloud 9
