It is a stupid ad. I think they're trying to woo her supporters over to his side with it.
They released the choice at 3:00 am... If don’t think that wasn’t a slap in the face, then you’d be a fool.
Obama had to cave to Clinton’s convention request and he was criticized and embarrassed because of his weakness.... His childish response was to select his VP (not her) and inform everybody at 3:00 a.m. in the morning, probably because the story of her not being vetted came directly from the Clinton camp and made big news last night, and it was obviously released in way that made Obama look bad.
There is big bucket of bad blood between Barry and Hillary and McCain is very smart to take advantage of that rift.
“I’m Bob Dope, and Bob Dope says vote for Bob Dope, because it’s Bob Dope’s turn.”
Wasn’t that the poll taken AFTER Biden was picked, it was his favorability, not him vs Clinton
Cage match. Kidney punching. Ears hanging off. I, unfortunately for my own mental health, could go on and on.
Yes.
What about wooing super delegates over to her side? McCain really shouldn't be elevating Hillary. Period.
How could Clinton poll worse than Biden? Biden couldn’t get 2 percent of his party to notice him. He’s a do-nothing Senator from an inconsequential state. Half the party probably hasn’t heard of him. He certainly isn’t a hero to any moderate Republicans, or independents.
It would amaze me that he polls better than Hillary, who in fact won more primaries than Obama, and currently polls better than Obama on the TOP of the ticket against McCain.
Could Obama picked a whiter white guy than Biden?
Well, McCain in this ad does suggest that the 2nd-place finisher has to be considered a front-runner for the VP slot. If this ad makes the Mitt-haters even more nervous, than it has more than made my day.
If yuo get Hillary...you get Billy....that’s why the rooster didn’t choose Hillary...he wants the barnyard to himself!
Sorry, I should specify that Biden polls better among independents than Clinton, which I really think is the group that Obama (and McCain) wants to court. Among Dems, yes, Clinton does poll better.

Why didn’t he pick Clinton?
Uhhh, because he hates her?????
Hilarious! Hillaryous!
McCain’s funny!
Read the ad again. McCain is exposing the character of Obama. Everyone, even Repubs, knew Hillary was barely beaten, and should have been considered at least for VP. Because he didn't he showed clearly he is immature, angry and bears grudges. Then the 3am release of his text message was another slap of Hillary. Remember she ran the ad about the WH phone ringing at 3am.
The ad shows he is not presidential.
You are correct but it never hurts to stir some sh*t. The Democrats would do the same for us.
You obviously fail to realize that if Mitt Romney becomes VP he will use his vast powers as Vice President to force all women in America to take multiple Mormon men as husbands. THEN he'll make them all have abortions!
Gee you are not reading the right threads on FR are ya?
Yes, at the expense of elevating Hillary. Sometimes you have to squint to see the picture clearly.
Be careful what you wish for.
If Mac really wants those bitter womens’ votes, he’ll put a woman on the ticket.
“and suck out 20% of Hillary supporters on Nov. 4th.
He’s already getting 24% of them. Saw a thread around here yesterday on that.
