I know my political conversations occur mostly with college students, but I know several people who were torn between Obama and McCain and Biden swayed them toward Obama...<BR/><BR/>Who knows though...

Let's hope Catholics have longer memories than that. <BR/>You KNOW why I love Gov Palin, I have a daughter with Down syndrome, and she's a role model for public officals who happen to be mothers. <BR/>I would check Kay Bailey Hutchison about abortion. I seem to rememeber her as pro-abortion, which of course turns off this social conservative. <BR/>What ever happened to Liddy Dole?Leticiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08170455690163831806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8243665813146017811.post-26889540872853621122008-08-23T20:53:00.000-04:002008-08-23T20:53:00.000-04:00Two more things to calm your fears, Alycin.Howard ...Two more things to calm your fears, Alycin.<BR/><BR/>Howard Fineman said Biden as a VP candidate is "going to have to learn to shut his mouth." Fineman, covering Washington for decades, knows what he is capable of.<BR/><BR/>Today, Biden screwed up Obama's name. He said... "Barack O...O..America." He couldn't even get his name right. Not too many news sources cited this. Believe me, we have nothing to worry about.<BR/><BR/>I would not be surprised if Biden says something stupid to have some constituents to ask him step down from the VP place on the ticket.<BR/><BR/>Today he mentioned something about his wife is difficult to live with because she has an advanced degree. This could be taken as women should know their place. He is a walking gaffe.A Voice in the Crowdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14910627594877389819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8243665813146017811.post-46503682599571230612008-08-23T20:08:00.000-04:002008-08-23T20:08:00.000-04:00We will respectfully disagree, Alycin.The story of...We will respectfully disagree, Alycin.<BR/><BR/>The story of the day is Biden. If a news channel says it is a horrible pick, there goes their story.<BR/><BR/>Ed Rollins said just moments ago on CNBC, Hillary as VP would have had us [Republicans] shaking, we are not shaking with Biden.<BR/><BR/>Today one of the polls cited that only 13% of respondents said Biden as VP would make them more likely to vote for the ticket. That is a very low rating.<BR/><BR/>Delaware has 3 only electoral votes. <BR/><BR/>Obama thought Biden would help him with Catholics. They mentioned his Catholic heritage today at the stump. I am not too sure it will.<BR/><BR/>Time will tell. We will know who is right in about 2 months with exit data.A Voice in the Crowdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14910627594877389819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8243665813146017811.post-77869250065236770932008-08-23T19:59:00.000-04:002008-08-23T19:59:00.000-04:00I disagree, too.

Let's not forget that Biden has been around Washington forever, and his pick will disappoint those who were excited that Obama was a kind of 'outsider' and a force for change.Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01504517769804159508noreply@blogger.com
