John Berman has been at ABC since 1995, and allowed to appear on television since 2001. He covered the 2008 campaign extensively, following John McCain and Mitt Romney during the primaries and then Barack Obama in the general election. He also spent more than 20 months chasing George W. Bush around the country as a producer from 1999 until 2001, earning the clever nickname, "Pain in the Ass," from our 43rd president. He is a frequent and sometimes welcome contributor to all of ABC's broadcasts.

Biden's Bio
August 27, 2008 10:27 PM
8:26 pm MT: . . . is undeniably powerful. It's this sort of thing that makes smart Republicans think that Tim Pawlenty should have the upper hand on Mitt Romney.

Yes Biden can be very wise at times, especially when he praised John McCain as a would be great president and said Obama wasn't ready.
Speak it, Brother Biden!

McCain loses no matter who he picks for VP. The Obama/Biden ticket is just too good. There are no better examples of self-made Americans...they know us because they are us!

Yes Biden was wise when he said in the past "That I would love to be running mates with John McCain." He is one of my best friends.
Well with friends like that --- who needs enemies.

i'm so disappointed in the american public. obama may be half black, but he is ALSO half white. why is it i can't, as a white woman, claim him as my own? he is a white man. raised by a white mom, white grandparents, white relatives, etc. etc. i'm so disallusioned by all the talk of the first black man to be nominated....blah, blah. when did he not become half white? i never taught my kids black and white (20 and 22 yrs. old). i taught them people. the good, the bad, the great, and the ugly. i listened tonight, hoping that joe biden could put it all in perspective. i'm just not sure. of joe, of hillary, of bill, or if i can claim obama as my own....mine, what i stand for, what i taught my daughters, truth, kindness, faith in mankind, and never, ever, give up. God Bless this country, and all that we used to stand for. i'm thinking about moving.....to canada.

Biden was no match for Hillary he failed, once again it just proves that the choice for VP and Obama's judgement was totally wrong

Barack Obama wants to correct problems he perceives in the American People. He and his wife see us as a "mean" nation of the "US KKK-A" who need to be told where to set our thermostats and what to eat by the socialist nations of Europe that we should be emulating. "Greedy" successful people and "windfall" companies, who already pay disproportionate taxes, are to be further punished. He wants to use government to correct problems with the people of America.
.....John McCain wants to correct problems he perceives in the American government. Like pork-barrel waste, overspending - he recently railed against republicans for this - and lack of vision. McCain's vision of strength for America has snatched victory from the jaws of defeat in Iraq. McCain wants to use the people and their priorities to correct the government of America.

biden was rather flat and awkward. but then introducing him after hillary and bill was a big, big, mistake. it only reminds us of the greatness of what could have been, and what was, and how pathetic our party has become.
does that mean that as a hillary supporter i will support mccain? perhaps. however as a hispanic, woman, mother of a gay son, i get chills when i think about (some) of mccains nut job, racist, republican supporters.
i felt kind of sorry for biden, and michelle, i felt as though they both were trying really, really, hard to be accepted like new kids on the playground.
this is tragic a few weeks before november and i really cannot fully commit to either candidate and i absolutely refuse to do the best of two evils dance once more.
