OBAMA-BIDEN EVENT: Springfield, Illinois-LIVE THREAD

08/23/08

Springfield, Illinois We just arrived at the state capitol. We’re told Biden is en route and on the plane Obama spokeswoman Linda Douglass told us that Obama called Biden Thursday night to offer him the job

It is literally 90 degrees warmer than it was on February 10, 2007. The lectern’s all set up with the new Obama/Biden logo. Obama's plane wasn’t changed – the tip that broke Kerry's choice of Edwards in 2004 -- it simply reads “Change We Can Believe In; www.barackobama.com"). A significantly smaller crowd has turned up for this event than the 17,000 for Obama’s presidential roll out....

Obambi’s sub-conscious is telling him to flip the ticket, make Biden the Presidential candidate and naive, inexperiences little Obambi will be Biden’s VP candidate!

[LegalEagle61]

LOL sorry still laughing over that Obama gaffe...come on Biden give us more!

[Jeff Chandler]

He just said “the next President”!!!!!!!!! LOLOLOL

I can't wait for that to be played over and over and over lie "potatoe".

Yeah, I know, it will be ignored.

[toomanygrasshoppers]

doom and gloom...doom and gloom.........

[Libloather]

Those teleprompters are on either side of the mics. They're the only things Obomber ever looked at. The rookie isn't ready for prime time.

[pepperhead]

[defconw]

The future is receding? Hairline?..........

ROFLMAO!!!! Obambi just started to introduce Biden as “the next President”............. Now that’s a howler of a gaffe. There are gaffes and there are GAFFES..... that’s a big one.

After Obama gets the nomination from the RATS next week, if then it is proved he is ineligible because he was born outside the US, I am pretty sure Biden becomes the RAT nominee for President.

playing softly in the background , some sad, lonely music........

[darkangel82]

I hate ABC for showing this crap. Get off my Gdamned television, you two losers.

[dforest]

I just turned this on now, Biden was just coming out and they had this rock music playing.

I have never been more embarassed for mu country than i was at that moment.

[maggief]

Didn’t Biden say he’d do away with middle class tax cuts?

I saw two McCain stickers in downtown Baltimore last night compared to two Obama stickers. We also put our McCain stickers on our cars last night. :)

[TornadoAlley3]

Oh God, it is so bad, we are living in third world conditions and it is Bush/Mccain’s fault, we are so miserable we must elect OB. we cannot afford 4 more years, our neighbors are so bad off, our kitchen table is like Joe's...oh man.

[toomanygrasshoppers]

Oh my! Houses dropping off cliffs....everybody RUN!!!

[pepperhead]

And he had a stepfather that raised him for a while too. He even got him a pet monkey.

[keepitreal]

Our dreams are dropping off a cliff.

Kitchen tables like mine. I don’t have a kitchen table like his. Mine isn’t in a mansion on a 3 acre estate.
