Rumblings about Biden’s “personal issues” requiring more of his attention
Rumblings | 9.04.08 | rumblings

Posted on 09/04/2008 7:05:51 AM PDT by rface

I am starting to hear rumblings that Biden has “personal issues” that have to be dealt with. There is no word on what these issues might be – but it might require more attention than he can now give to these “issues”

People familiar with this situation are beginning to speculate that Joe Biden might withdraw from the Democratic ticket as early as the middle of next week.

Hillary insiders have indicated that Hillary is available to step into the vacant slot “for the good of the party.” There are trial balloons already being floated to party officials suggesting possible scenarios on how this might happen without embarrassing Barak Obama, but it is too early to tell what kind of effect a Obama / Hillary ticket might have on the base of the Democratic Party. Very early indications are that a Obama / Hillary ticket would be well received

Look in the coming days…. Possibly Friday evening…. For serious questions about Bidens ability to serve as VP.

I hope this is coming out against Biden!

Sen. Joseph Biden - Bearing false witness...

[snip]“In a striking moment in December 2007, he opened his heart to University of Iowa students. “Let me tell you a little story. My wife and three kids were Christmas shopping for a Christmas tree, a tractor trailer, a guy who allegedly, and I never pursued it, drank his lunch instead of eating his lunch, broadsided my family, killed my wife instantly, killed my daughter instantly, and hospitalized my two sons.”

Out on the stump recently and for years, Biden has repeated this charge. Lately, he has tried to soften it with the thought that he doesn’t know if the semi truck driver was drunk...., “ I never pursued it”. He didn’t follow the case about the death of his wife and child? Give me a break.

The court certainly did. The driver was never charged and was cleared of any wrong doing. Mrs. Biden, driving a station wagon full of kids and a Christmas tree pulled into the truck’s path. The driver, also a victim, had not been drinking and for the years before his death his reputation suffered with the false charge that Biden put out in the public for sympathy and political gain.”

Interesting that there is no sign of Biden's name on ANY of the Broco Bomber campaign material at the Bronco Bomber Store

That's because Obama requires "thou shat not worship any other god" but Obama.

I'm still waiting for the damning evidence regarding his mixed-race, bastard son which was supposed to compel Bill Clinton to drop out of his race against George H. W. Bush.

Just because you expected it doesn't mean it's not a dangerous fantasy.

Everything these people do is dangerous. They're evil. That's how it works.

Better you should gird yourself for the next wave of infernal attacks on McCain/Palin.

That's exactly what I'm doing. Thorwing Biden under the bus and putting Hillary on the ticket in a fit of hysterical desperation is precisely that: an attack on McCain/Palin.

Rudy said Biden better watch out. Obama is constantly changing his mind.

“I think this is bad.”


It’s bad only because
it’s too good to be true.

Is this the bombshell you were talking about PJ?

I don't know what bombshell they are referring to. Mine is HUGE and highly entertaining. Oh, and for all those screaming at me to reveal it last week...isn't it better later when the Biden pick is pretty much set in stone? I don't think they can easily replace him. I think you will see it revealed before the end of the month, although I'm in no rush. It's not in my hands now.

Oh, and I am dedicating my revelation to William Rivers Pitt who claimed last week that Sarah Palin would have an Eagleton problem. You might remember Pitt. He was the "journalist" who gave us the scoop of Karl Rove's indictment on May 12, 2006.

“Hysterical desperation” is my characterization of much of what they do. They, being delusional Marxists in a perpetual state of denial, obviously see it differently.

I really shouldn’t have to explain how the Obama campaign, and more importantly the democrat party, might think Hillary Clinton will help them at this point. It’s rather obvious, given the recent turn of events.

Unsourced BS rumors

My Biden revelation is no "BS rumor." I've seen it and had it verified. Patience. Patience. Hee! Hee!

The underside of Obama’s bus is getting crowded.

Remember the Torricelli-Lautenberg switch. Nothing would surprise me about these thugs.

Implicit in you reasoning is the idea that the Obama campaign never saw this coming.

To me, there is no doubt they asked themselves how Obama/Biden would fair against McCain/Palin before they chose Biden.

Absolutely correct. I don't think they did.

Is there an “intrade” selection for “biden drops out” yet?

I’m guessing the “palin drops out” intrade is pretty much a dead horse now.

they realize biden was as dull a pick as ever there was, getting them no new votes. they need to counter the Palin effect to have a chance. i bet there are no “issues” i bet the talk is, WIN AT ALL COSTS!

They step up, we must step up! Then we will really have to fight this campaign on the issues; this is going to be the fight of our life (especially with the dirty tricks of the other side)..but I have not doubt with (Providence and prayer) we will succeed!!..
