Jack Carter Endorses Democrat Biden for President
Associated Press ^ | 08/27/07

Posted on 08/28/2007 7:11:31 AM PDT by presidio9

Jack Carter, who ran unsuccessfully for U.S. Senate in Nevada last fall, has endorsed Sen. Joe Biden to be the Democratic nominee for president.

Carter, the son of former President Jimmy Carter, seemed to snub Illinois Sen. Barack Obama for his lack of experience and New York Sen. Hillary Clinton for having high unfavorable ratings in polls.

"With Joe Biden, we don't have to worry about the problems of lack of experience or high negatives affecting our chances in November 2008," Carter, 60, said in a statement released by the Biden campaign Monday. "I'm very comfortable that he can win."

Biden called Carter's support a valuable asset in Nevada and in early nominating state Iowa, "where the Carter name is revered."

Jimmy Carter is renowned for going from obscurity to becoming the Democratic nominee in 1976 after winning the Iowa caucuses.

Oh, no.

Disunity in the Democratican ranks.

And here I believed Herself, the Cold and Joyless, had the nomination all locked up.

Now comes Jimmy Carter’s son, and upsets the equation again.

First Zbigniew Brzezinski jumps on Obama-Osams’s bandwagon, then this.

Is Jimmy’s Georgia Mafia cutting away at the coronation of Herself?

Expect a apate of Arkancides.

re: “With Joe Biden, we don’t have to worry about the problems of lack of experience or high negatives...”

So, lack of honesty and integrity are nothing to worry about and are not negatives?

Why am I even asking the question? We are talking about Democrats!

After watching crowds of three listen to Jimmah campaign for Jack in Nevada I doubt Jacks endorsement of plugs will help, best if Jack looks for a new career choice, politics is not his forte.

One loser comes out in support of another loser. In other news, Generalissimo Franco is still dead.

Years ago, while waiting for a flight at LAX, I saw him in the waiting area (same flight), as well as the Boston Celtics team...I felt like I was in the Twilight Zone.

Negative Comment:

I am on my knees asking God to forgive me for ever supporting that (fill in the blank as I am still on my knees)human.

Worst President of the United States and probably one of the worst naivete` leaders in the entire modern world right behind Mugabee, Castro, Chavez, Pinochet, Kim Jong Ill, Chamberlain.

Just the vacuum between the ears, underneath the plugs.
