Oh, That Joe! (No. 19 in a Series) -- Bluegrass Banter

I like Joe Biden; I don't like his political positions and posturing. But out of all 4 candidates, he is the one that would be most fun to have a beer with.

But that doesn't mean that I think he is a good choice to be a heartbeat away from the presidency. After all, he is the consumate career politician and Democratic insider beholden to trial lawyers (oh boy is he!), unions and minority groups.

I love Joe Biden. Glad to see a Dem getting some love in Southern Indiana. I used to live in Louisville and drove across the river to work in Clarksville (just past J'ville) - sometimes it felt like crossing into a different world. I'm so happy to see IN turning blue this election; just wish I could say the same for my native KY. At least my adopted home of North Carolina is going for Obama/Biden, though!

But come on, Kentucky! I know there's still some blue in the Bluegrass State...

Biden to Couric:

A good leader has to know what he is talking about.
During the Depression you saw FDR on TV...

Biden-a heartbeat away.

Joe's the only one of the top four that I actually do like - gaffes and all.

Those that think the tv debate on Friday will just be a show or the ones that don't want to hear facts DIRECT from the candidates themselves. They would rather show their "political expertise" in unsubstantiated comments on an internet blog.

Folks, the best way to get the straight scoop is from the proverbial horses' mouth -- not from someone who has no idea what he/she is talking about on a blog.

By the way, this has been a bipartisan comment - for those of you that only watch shows and can't comprehend real life- the debate will have BOTH parties (assuming chicken McCain shows up) so you can get both sides of the story.

Joe Biden is a gaffee machine! Half the time when he's on tv I wonder if he's had a few drinks beforehand, by his manner and speech. If he wasn't such a "nice" guy, he would seem like a big, dumb animal. He's s mess, though, and if he is the VP, he would really embarrass our country. *and he'd be just a smokey puff away from being the President...

I get a kick out of watching Joe Biden. It's like going into a car dealership and watching exactly how the salesman is going to try and pressure you.You know it's coming. Of the four people running, he's the one with no personality. Just a typical political party hack. His speaking
would be about as exciting as watching paint dry except for the gaffe you know is coming. The only bad thing is it'll be hard to top the wheelchair gaffe. That one is historic. It actually beat Obamas 57 states gaffe.I do enjoy watching how Obama and Biden aren't even on the same page with their answers.

Maybe this is why McCain suspended his campaign - there is no good tone to take on the campaign trail right now.

Joe Biden certainly didn’t hit the right tone yesterday in Kentucky - getting the crowd all revved up by talking about local sports heroes and then abruptly switching gears.

Harry Reid certainly didn’t hit the right tone yesterday with his nasty, embarrassingly partisan response to McCain’s statement.

Obama certainly didn’t hit the right tone yesterday when he said, basically, that he was just going to keep campaigning until he’s needed for a vote.

*Jake – did the Obama campaign ever get back to you about his assertion that the CEOs of companies that get this bailout money shouldn’t receive one dime of it?

I believe neither McCain nor Obama should help with the Bill. The Preidant does not interfere, in Congress. So McCain and Obama, must take on the Presidential roll and NOT INTERFERE.
Lets see how Both act as a Presdident RIGHT NOW.

Jake,
I hope you read this one.
I have a question about a Fox Poll.
According to Fox, the number of Hillarys voters, will not vote for Obama. If this was true, then we also can conclude, that they are not voting for McCain. McCains numbers are actually dropping. While Obamas votes are rising. So does this mean those people talking to Fox's Pollster are lying. Or is the Fox Station itself lying? Can ABC take a Poll, on this issue? :)

Check out some of the authors, of those recent, failed books. Exspecial those coming out now. A Lobbiest will buy 100, copies of a book to Lobby for ones support. Exspecially if the book promotes, a particular company, or person. Old tactic, from histories forgotten.

Should I make one more revelation, about how some Extreme Capitolists, are money laundering and being Lobbied to help their other Capitolist buddies?

PLEASE TELL ME WHERE SARAH PALIN IS!?!?!

SHE'S NOT A SENATOR... SHE CAN'T RUN THE CAMPAIGN WHILE YOU'RE IN WASHINGTON ?

You think she's qualified to be V.P., but you can't leave her in charge of your campaign for a couple days ????????

YOU ARE A JOKE JOHN MCCAIN!

johnTX,

Shhhh, I LOVE it when Republicans chant HOOVER!, HOOVER!, HOOVER!.

How corupt are the Oil companies. Well with all the deregulations lobbied by them, in the 1980's allowed a little oversight of the Exxon Valdez scandel. the deregulataions allowed many corupt and Capitolist Tycoons take short cuts, on saftey issues. Inside trading also began again, because of deregulations allowed so many loopholes to benifit Capitolists, who took advantage of the Middle Class. Purposful Greed, thinks it can find solace in religion. But a closer inspection of ANY religion, denounces 'Greed'.

Of course Biden never said that FDR was President in 1929. He simply said FDR gave a speech after the collapse - which of course he did because he was Governor of New York, the state with the stock markets.

The only thing poor Joe got wrong was that it was done over radio and not television.

Gaffes from all Candidates are funny, but think goodness, it shows they are human.

If your house is burning,and you are POTUS, you'd better d*mn well be able to Multi-Task, are you insane?

Also, why should Obama have done the McCain plan, he's ahead?

If there was ever a time when the American People needed to connect to good old everyday American life...it would be now...way to go Joe...that's how you walk a campaign along side the people.

Biden are starting to sound like Obama - lying everywhere he goes, from personal stories to campaign promises.
