Rumored: Joe Biden dropping out of the race!
Pontiac | 9/22/08 | Pontiac

Posted on 09/22/2008 6:19:39 PM PDT by Pontiac

Just got back from my local Republican Party headquarters and they were discussing a rumor that Joe Biden was dropping out of the race. The speculation was that it was due to health.

Is this rumor circulating any where else?

Yes, the rumor is circulating on the internet. It seems implausible, since it would raise a question about Obama’s judgement that the MSM couldn’t plaster over with lies and obfuscation.

I hear he’s going to drop out and endorse McCain, owing to the unfairness of Obama’s e-mail ad making fun of McCain’s inadequacy with computers.

Health...you mean, the threat of Arkancide, eh?

Is it true that Hillary had lent the Biden campaign her private chef?......

Hope he hasn’t been poisoned.

Its been going around for a while now. Sean Hannity was even talking about it today, and a local radio host mentioned it as coming from "sources inside the DNC."

The local guy was saying it could happen after the VP debate.

If Hillary joins the ticket she brings her high negatives. She may rally some of the womens vote, but I think Sarah's effect will not be diminished, partly due to the vicious attacks she has weathered (sympathy factor) also people connect with her, something Hillary doesn't get. Hillary getting lots of TV time can't help Obama. At least Biden wasn't a drag on the ticket even if he doesn't help. I see Hillary hurting the ticket as much or even more than helping. It will be interesting to watch if it does happen.

I’ve only been hearing this since 3 seconds after Obama picked Biden for his VP.

I agree. At this point it could very well do more harm than good for Obama. Then again, having that airhead Biden say: “Hillary would have been a better choice than me” certainly doesn’t make The Messiah look too good either.

I believe The Corner suggested the scenario before Rush picked it up.

Putting Hitlery on the ticket assures his loss by turning out conservatives in record numbers to vote against the Clintons.

I asked PJ specifically if this was what he was talking about and he said no.

The GOP would be ecstatic if this happened. Choosing Hitlery would assure Obama’s loss, as conservatives would turn out in record numbers just to vote against the Clintons.

Supposedly, the stupidity of Biden’s remarks will deliberately continue into October (all well planned and orchestrated) for . . . what else? . . . an October surprise when her Royal Thunderthighness, the Queen of Cankles and Pantsuits will be put on the ticket to SAVE THE DAY!!!!!

All the feminazis will applaud this and come racing back to the Hussein Obama ticket in joyful crowds . . . only problem I can see is, is Obama ready to have a food taster, bullet proof vest, be surrounded by guards 24/7, and a from-to Mapquest to Fort Marcy Park . . . hmmmmmm

Well, but who knows.
It may be in the works anyway.

But seriously, the rumor that makes much more sense is that 0bama will be outted for something that makes him NOT eligible to be President then Hillary takes over.

That kept her out of the line of fire for months and she skates into the presidency.

That scares the crap out of me.
