Biden would not give this guy a bounce and he’s a fool to think it would.
This was a complete act of desperation, completely undermines his “change” claims (how do you effect change by picking a radical entrenched partisan as your running mate?)
Attacking McCain for being in Washington just went out the window, since Biden’s been there about as long.
And Biden as a joke that he is, simply highlights how horribly inexperienced Fauxbama is... When the campaign has to rely on the VP selection to create “gravitas” the campaign is over.
I said up until this point Fauxbama would be lucky to get 40% of the vote on election day, with this choice, I now say he won’t get 40% on election day... PERIOD.
This is a complete desperation move, and a bad one. Every time I think the Fauxbama camp can’t do anything more stupid, they prove me wrong.
The criticism of McCain for having a temper and being old, just went away, because you have a guy with an insane temper, cusses like a sailor and sure ain’t young as your VP.
They didn’t properly vet the guy, which means something bad could come up on him that they don’t even know about yet.
Man, this seasons Democratic primaries and election cycle for the president is like watching a train wreck in slow motion.
Actually, at 35 years in DC, Biden’s been there a decade longer than McCain (at least in Congress). McCain was still in the Navy for much of Biden’s 1st two terms in the Senate, IIRC.
