98% say Biden is knowledgable on issues 97% say he is prepared to be VP...

And the remaining percentage of people in each group slipped on banana peels and knocked themselves unconscious before they could answer the poll questions. (from tonight's CBS polling)

1. The debate drinking game

rears its head, yet again.

2. Thanks. I wanted to post that info. Just amazing numbers ...

... so don't try and tell me that Biden didn't win this debate.

Seriously. Holy crap, have you EVER seen a candidate get numbers like that on about any issue?

3. Nope, not once ever.

That is stunning. Outstanding.

Is the public developing some taste??? Could it be possible?

4. No way not even close

I am not even sure he should get numbers that high. I think he deserves them personally, but what I mean is, there has to be more than 2% or 3% of people out there in the group they polled who thought he was wrong or something like that. Hell I don't know, but that's pretty astounding to get numbers that high. I would have never guessed that. Makes me happy.

5. Heck, if you consider the margin of error, it's unanimous. Biden wins...

... and wins big. Those numbers should be the story post-debate.

6. it's amazing

He might be the most qualified VP nominee ever. Of course I am just guessing, but it's hard to think of anybody with his kind of experience. Not even Gore or Poppy Bush had his experience. Lloyd Bentsen was vastly experienced. But still, Biden has been around forever and he knows the issues in and out. I like to think that I know a thing or two about politics and policy and I bet Biden forgot more about all of that last week than I have ever known.

7. And all that, plus those numbers, impress me that much more with Obama's choice.

Those numbers certainly put to rest, I would think, any stragglers in the "should've picked Hillary" camp. To ridiculously understate it, Biden does not provide the problems for Obama that Palin does for McCain.

As for Biden's experience and knowledge, this thread, talking about Freepers, underscores that. He was so quick to begin his responses, detailed and on-point. He was on a completely different level from Palin.

Barack and Joe could be a helluva team if the country isn't dimwitted enough to let the Republicans close enough to steal another one.

8. Biden Could Have & Would Have Been A GREAT Presidential Pick

He has watched and listened to John Sydney McAsshole for 26 years, he knows the deal. McAsshole is a narcissistic fuck. Biden knows. McAsshole has not hoodwinked him. Biden fucking killed MooseBabe. It is clear that DC players hate the shit out of McAsshole. Rightly so.
