Thread: I'm not going to give them hell, I'll give them the truth & they'll think it's hell

Biden bites back

Great clip, worth the watch!!! Glad to see the Dems right back on the horse after the Republican convention, not letting the focus get shifted from the middle class, health care, and the failure of the last 8 years.

Is he fucking stupid? I'm pretty sure McCain mentioned both health care and education.

"Mentioned" might be the right word.

As a production, the RNC was almost entirely character-oriented. Issues just get in the way. Really lacking in discussion of substantive issues compared to the DNC.

Biden might be my favorite politician. Tells it how it is. He might fuck up occasionally but he tells it how he sees it and he owns what he says.


If only I could have a Biden/Dodd ticket.......

Although Obama sure is up there. That guy stays high road like very few politicians of my time.


Genuine (McCain too, prior to this election cycle) goes a long way in my book.

You actually think that every one of every politicians speeches are made up from whole cloth?
EVERY one uses other speeches as sources. Period.

That fucking half wit quoted no one until he was called on it and then back pedaled.

I think Biden is going to be quite the asset in the VP debates, unfortunately VP's don't normally affect who people vote for. Which is unfortunate because I'm scared of Palin's right wing religious BS.

^^^I think he will too. He is quick on his feet and he's experienced at the hand-hand combat of elections. Watching the designated attack dogs go at each other will be entertaining.

Palin and him have to debate. That will rock.

No one else is surprised by the fact that they debate one another.

They will likely have one debate. I doubt the McCain camp will agree to more than that.

How about a couple of town halls?

In Canada, opposing Vice-Prime Ministerial candidates have a poutine eating competition, a seal trap-off, and snow machine races in lieu of debates.

Fucking snow machines. Biden's from Deleware so we're screwed.

He would own the Poutine event, though.

Ohhh...How I do loves me some Poutine.
And Shania, of course.

The 'vice prime minister' hopefuls also often have a rousing round of knuckle hopping competition. Thrilling stuff. Leslie Nielson's brother rocked at that one.

As for debates I seem to recall the vices debating in the past. However in another thread it was pointed out the McCain group is keeping Palin away from the media. That fact would seem to put the 'fact' of a debate in jeopardy. The likelihood she would have her petite ass handed to her doesn't make it more likely the McCain gang will let even one debate happen. Here's hoping though.

It's true.

Me thinks this VP debate may be more heavily viewed and taken into consideration because of McCain's age. It is very likely that Palin could become leader of the free world in no time! Remember, McCain is 72 and had 4 bouts of cancer.
