I've been hearing that for awhile.

That debate was like watching paint dry.

Ya it was not to enlightining.....

I will say this. i like how obama says alot your right john.... :D
and macain say barack your wrong.....

that says enough......

But to be honist. i would much rather be on a night ride
than watching this.....

it was a decent debate - but nothing earth shattering... and as with most pres debates - both sides declare victory - a victorious debate is about as clear as a college football national champ.

the rumor about dumping Biden has been circling uncredited net sites for awhile now - no truth to speak of... it would be a death move this far into it...no way it happens.

Can they just dump their running mate like that? I think Obama messed up when he didn't pick Hillary. She had the experience, & knows the ropes...plus Bill would be in the background.

Hillary clearly didnt want the job - she's already been vp twice now

she made it clear she wanted to be president - not the vp.

Obama had no choice but to try and work an experienced dem - and Biden was the only one really worth a damn out of all the choices...

Again, there is no way they dump Biden...they made their choice, its too far into the process. Besides if they did it - it would be viewed as admitting they made a mistake in choosing a running mate - which is the president to be's first job - you CANT screw that up... though I dont like the Palin choice the McCain camp made - its a damn political ploy and I dont like it....

Yes I like Palin - but IMO there were way too many other choices for a running mate - and if the camp had to have a woman - there are many choices there too with far more experience...just not real happy with the choice - though they have my vote.

I like Palin. I think she has the character that is needed to put Washington on it's ear. We have not had a President since Reagan who has been able to take the issues directly to the people and call the Congress to account. I think she has the record that proves that she can help McCain do that. I hope we get to see.

I too think she has a strong personality - and will certainly not hesitate to call someone out....

HOWEVER....

She has a true lack of credible experience.... and it will rear its head (probably in the first vp debate)

the good news - the VP generally does not carry a ton of weight when it comes to the candidate at the top of the ticket (except for Mondale/Ferraro) I think people will vote for Obama and/or McCain based on them - not their mate....

I just wish the McCain camp chose a young up and coming WITH experience....

When is the 1st VP debate to be?

next thursday, and on oct.5th is what the rumor mill has it for the day they dump biden for health reasons and install hilary. And yes they can do anything they want, they are democrates :(lmao:
