OBAMA-BIDEN EVENT: Springfield, Illinois-LIVE THREAD
08/23/08
Posted on 08/23/2008 11:44:35 AM PDT by TornadoAlley3
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....

"Oh no, they are going to restore America’s soul."
Biden's been in Congress longer than McCain. I wonder why he didn't do that before now.

I kept wondering when Obama would shut up and let Biden talk.

Oops... I missed it. Oh well.
Caught the last 30 seconds, that was enough.
I’m sure the audacious one and the arrogant one sent liberals wild.

Obama must be afraid of losing PA. His internal polling must be giving him some bad news.

“My friends”...crowd chants yes we can
It could have been "Yes, McCain" after Barry'sVP pick.

You didn’t miss anything. Thankfully it is over, except for the tingly feelings going up the legs of the media.

Well, that was a waste of a good hour.
I would have been watching reruns of Doctor Who.

Michelle doesn’t look too enthused.She's pissed they're not giving her the podium.
To: All
Matthews on MSPMS does nothing but bring up President Bush. He must have got the talking points from the DNC. These guys just can’t get it through their thick lib heads that Bush is not on the ticket.
To: Republican Extremist
How about a campaign poster with Barry “Barney Fife” Obama and Joe “Cliff Claven” Biden? I don't have PhotoShop, so those who do, please give it a shot.
