Is McCain picking Lieberman a serious possibility or are they just blowing smoke up our asses?

post primary Obama has been so disappointing. I guess i did set myself up for this sort of thing. Always don't follow the primary version of these candidates. Against core message as a Washington Insider, has made countless fucked up statements and borderline racist and insensitive comments, has voted against many of the social issues I hold strong, bankruptcy bill, voted for the Iraq War, etc etc

*sigh*

At this point I guess I have to still be on board if McCain is the alternative, but I am so frustrated with this shit already. I hope this dude has little influence in an Obama White House.

Has the reign of terror finally ended?

Why I was rooting for Clark so hard:

Not a Washington insider
Four-star general, Supreme Allied Commander of Nato
Extremely huge FP experience from the ground
Old White dude from the south
Incredibly smart and effective attack dog
Rhodes scholar, masters in economics, politics and philosophy from Oxford
Knows the chain of command
Just pure awesome

CNN confirms Sen. Barack Obama has chosen Delaware Sen. Joe Biden to be his vice-presidential running mate.
Fuck... Obama should have sent out the text messages before people started finding out.

Well guys, the dems just lost the election.

Biden brings no new voters to the table and gets only a lukewarm response from the Obama faithful.

Not only that but Biden's a blue-collar Dem, with a long history of working with exactly the white blue-collar people that Obama's having a hard time with.

You completely don't know what you're talking about. We get that you have silica in your girlie parts over not getting Hillary, but don't let it make you stupid.

Obama is not going to win West Virginia. I've spent my entire life here (unfortunately), and the reason he's not doing well here isn't because he doesn't "connect with blue collar americans" it's because he's black and people love believing chain emails. The people in this state embarrass me.

This is the attitude that will cost Obama the election, this is the reason that 25% of the democratic base are still undecided or supporting McCain.

Next morning after VP is announced: "Eh, sorry, but I was just having too much fun with ya guys by throwing off random hints and being very shady to make you believe I was the VP. That pizza prank? Brilliant, wasn't it? Got my cousin Danny to order that. Seeing the deputy Sheriff go nuts was classsssic. Congratulations to the real vice presidential nominee..."

Actually it was a goon named Pledio from somethingawful.com. Or as MSNBC calls him, the Pizza Villian. :lol

You realize that your posts are nothing but statistical noise, right?

Blowing smoke. There is a lot of doubt whether it would actually be legal for him to be picked as VP in some states since he's not a Republican.

Besides . . . you've seen him campaign, right?

Come on, McCain is a weak candidate in a year that was practically handed to the dems, why can't Obama seal the deal.

Do you honestly think that Biden is going to help the situation?

Lieberman was just another fuck-up that cost Gore his election.

I'm sorry, did we travel in time and it's November 5th? How the hell is Obama supposed to seal the deal when a single goddamn vote hasn't been CAST?

If Obama's chances came down to his VP selection, he'd be behind by now.

And who's saying he can't "Seal the deal"? McCain hasn't lead in the Gallups, like, ever. Nobody's sealing shit until we're at a time where votes are cast.

If Hillary was the candidate she would be crushing McCain right now.

I'm not believing anything until it's official, but as someone who wholly supported Biden in the primaries, if it is him, I may have a private Mandark/Edwards moment. Politically, of course.

I honestly think you have sand in your vag. I honestly think Obama will beat McCain. I honestly think Biden is a vastly better choice than a politician whose supporters have attempted to sabotage the nominated Democratic candidate since the moment he was nominated.

I also honestly think the number of women who are going to change aisles and vote for a guy who will absolutely take a run at Roe v. Wade is miniscule, and that the vast majority of them are embittered nutcases.

National polls don't matter. They're worthless.

I like Joe, the guy is tell is like it is, he made nothing but straight up sence during the primaries and he sucks of the "straight talk" that McCain once had. Good for him.


*I'm drunk, my wife bought a case of Smirnoff ice and some white wine at traders joe and I drank most of it cuz she didn't bring me mah beer!

People have said PoliGAF was the NPD of OT, but I didn't believe it.

Until now.

SecretDestroyer has single handedly brought it down to that level.

I'm in Oregon. You young spry ones are out partying, but parents with kids are at home getting ready to crash. And the old people are on their second sleep cycle.

And I was referring to most people in the country. It's 10:00 here, but 1:00 am on the east coast and midnight in the Midwest. Most people will hear about this in the morning. :p

Hillary's negatives were just too high. Unfairly so but that is the way it is. She's been a target for so long that some of the bullshit thrown at her has managed to stick.

To some degree, Obama's relative newcomer status has been a positive. They are scrambling to find things to attack him with.

That should balance Obama nicely.
