Biden: "I'm Running"

Biden: "I'm Running"

Sen. Joe Biden (D-Del.) seems to have made up his mind to enter the 2008 presidential race, based on reading between the lines of a letter he sent to a potential donor last month and obtained by The Fix from the camp of a potential presidential rival.

Biden appears to be ready to take another shot at the White House.

A Biden spokesman chose not to comment on the letter. While Biden does not specify the race to which he is referring, it seems improbable that the appeal is aimed at raising money for a reelection race. Biden is up for a 7th term in the Senate in 2008 and has not faced a serious challenge in decades.

1. good luck with that one Joe...

[ixion]

35. wow... my words exactly.

:-)

[Captain Hilts]

2. MBNA 'ho. nt

[mr_hat]

3. As a democrat?

[Dewatson]

5. into a ditch I hope

Biden is not a democrat, atleast not if you look at his voting record.

He's owned by the Saudis and Citibank

[TK421]

16. And I'm sure that the sex scandal thing won't help his chances

:sarcasm:

[Dewatson]

36. Well, I called his office and sent a link to the Italian WP video

he still thinks Iraq was the right thing to do, he is such a repug I won't forgive him.

But you got me, I can't stand Joe Biden.

[goclark]

56. What sex scandal? nt

[lumberjack_jeff]

76. Good for you Sen Gump, run that way - we'll tell you when to stop. n/t

[Bluebear]

4. Run to MBNA's headquarters.

I'm certainly not interested.

[tk2kewl]

6. First find a short pier

[leveymg]

7. Go get 'me Sen. DuPont. Man of the people. n/t

[GreenArrow]

8. you're losing.

.

[Nicholas D Wolfwood]

9. Have fun with that one buddy!

So when do the real candidates start announcing?

[Walt Starr]

10. Warner will kick his ass. n/t

[mattclearing]

77. I could kick his ass.

No one wants to see a President Biden. No one.

[rniel]

11. I'm running too

Far away from you

[acmejack]

12. What a surprise!

alert the media

[ps1074]

13. Joementum again?

:rofl:

[MN ChimpH8R]

54. Beat me to it, dammit!

x(

[LSK]

14. prepare to use this link early and often

http://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_lists/roll_call_vote_cfm.cfm?congress=109&session=1&vote=00044

We dont need any DINOs.

[Walt Starr]

29. No more Senators, either

Two sitting Senators have ever been elected president, Warren HArding in 1920 and JFK in 1960.

[CountAllVotes]

15. keep on running Joe!

Run run run Joe, run fast too and make sure it is far far away from the White House!

:kick:

[MarinCoUSA]

17. ...far far away I hope.

Joe is like John is like yesterday's fish.

Save yer $ Joe and spend time on a worthy liberal cause.

[jackster]

18. ahhhhhh

no

thanks anyway!

[Proud2BaLiberalMom]

19. Gosh...Idiot!

What a waste of money!
:banghead:

[neverforget]

20. Joe can run but he won't get my vote.

Joementum anyone?

[NNadir]

63. Joementum...you beat me to it.

I have never gotten why this guy takes himself so seriously.

I have no idea why he is even a Senator, much less a Democratic Senator. He's not one of the shining lights of our party.

[BulletproofLandshark]

21. Tinman: No Chance In Hell, Joe!

[sasquatch]

22. Is he going to get his Pink Tutu all spiffed up before hits the trail?

We don't need another non-fighting democrat to run for president so some BCF stooge can walk all over him during the campaign and end up letting him win in the end.

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

23. "Used Car Salesman in Chief". It has a nice ring to it.

No disrespect to actual car salesmen.

[liveoaktx]

24. Video-THIS Is what I remember-You're the Real Deal to Torture Pimp

I won't vote for someone that condones torture and thinks what Abu Gonzalez did is okay

[Walt Starr]

37. "You're the REAL DEAL"

Yeah, that's the one they should play in every anti-Joe-mentum commercial in 2008.

[Garbo 2004]

57. Yup, that's exactly what comes to my mind too. Biden's valentine to

Gonzales. :puke:

[MoonRiver]

25. You may run, but you can't hide

your record. :thumbsdown:

[kpete]

30. Should I be sorry

for posting this?

I just thought it was interesting. I should send him these posts. I'm a Gore Girl myself!!!

[LSK]

34. if you can send him this post, do it

We dont need him wasting everyones times.

[stevedeshazer]

41. Naw, it makes for good conversation

Or not. :)

[MoonRiver]

78. Not at all! It was a good discussion post.

I think Biden is a serious contender in 2008. He, like Kerry, has a lot of make-up work to do before the grass roots will support him, however. Maybe he has learned.
:hug:s

[firefox]

26. Will that be as Republican or Democrat? nt

[KoKo]

27. Go Away.. ...Just Go Away. You'd think he was the only Democratic

spokesperson we have. He lives on Russert's show. Sheesh...

[TallahasseeGrannie]

28. He doesn't have a chance

They'll bring up the plagiarism stuff again and it makes him look stupid.

I don't think he is, but it's a mistake he won't be able to shake.

[SoCalDem]

31. Oh , for Pete's sake, Joe.. Hang it up

You are about as interesting as a bucket of warm spit.

[Gidney N Cloyd]

32. While you're out running, Joe...

Bring Wes and Barbara back some coffee.

[Rowdyboy]

33. Joementum II: The Revenge of the Democratic Right

To quote George Jetson's dog, Astro, "Rots of Ruck"

[Carolab]

38. Joe: You're the only one who cares. Shut up. n/t

[terrya]

39. YAWN

Gee...Biden as the nominee.

Let's lose another election!

40. I predict he wins n/t

[Walt Starr]

45. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[LSK]

46. you clearly overestimate the American sheeple!

[Walt Starr]

50. Historically, sheeple rarely vote in primaries

and you have to get nominated to get elected.

[LSK]

55. yeeeeeaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwww

Then explain how Dean got the shaft?

[Walt Starr]

66. Primary voters are rank and file of the party

That's an historical fact.

60. senator kennedy as his running mate

life is stranger than fiction.

[Clark2008]

72. Oh yeah... way to win over the South and the Mid-West

:eyes:

[Protagoras]

42. Just say NO Joe

Put the election down and step away slowly...that way no one gets hurt.

[democrat_patriot]

43. Great - so now every move is "only ro help in Prez Bid"

Even if he does something decent.

You haven't got a prayer pal.

[Danger Duck]

44. Go Joe!!!!!!!!!!

A straight shooter, good on camera, follows his convictions. He will resonate well with the voters. Maybe we can get Bradley out of retirement. That would be a ticket.

[Kolesar]

53. Yes, let us think some positive thoughts here

Three years in advance is a little silly to announce, but that's his business.

[nonconformist]

47. No thanks, Joe. nt

[LittleClarkie]

48. I thought he announced months ago

What the hey?

[WhiteTara]

49. I say don't quit your day job Joe -- you suck

If you quit your day job, your done you slimy depukem. We need a real leader not a pretender sell out.

[Roland99]

51. Biden/Clinton....the DLC wet dream ticket.

:puke:




Or...maybe Biden plans on retiring early. Therefore, Powell will spill his guts once Biden's been out of office for two years and we'll get to know all Powell knows before the '08 elections.

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

52. Running? Or, getting run out of town.

The Mouth that Never Closes is, as usual, spewing nonsense.

[AngryAmish]

58. I've got a Joe-ner!

[kpete]

59. Just Asking?

Should I step away from the computer.

[AngryAmish]

65. And don some rubber gloves!

[funflower]

61. Maybe he needs an excuse to raise money. Always nice to have a big

giant campaign "war chest" to spend....

He's got to know he'll never be President.

[depakid]

62. So he can undercut progressive Dems- and the Party

at every chance he gets on the "new" shows....

Lovely- but not unexpected. He's been inside the beltway so long that he no longer has any conception of how he's perceived around the country. He'll get about as far as Liebermann did- and do just as much damage in the process.

[More Than A Feeling]

64. Don't give up your day job

You don't speak for me, Senator Biden.

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

67. Better yet, DO give up your day job and let a progressive have it.

[npincus]

68. Mr. Milquetoast for President..... yawn

[Horse with no Name]

69. Dude they make medication for that

Oh....you mean RUNNING FOR POTUS????

70. Say it ain't so, Joe.

Please, say it ain't so.

Get an f'ing clue, too, while you're at it.

[Norwood]

71. So when is the concession speech?

[ReadTomPaine]

74. He needs to crib the text from a Brit, first..

[goforit]

73. Booooo....Yah wanna be Rethuglican.

[Gloria]

75. He should stop cluttering up the TV.....

and shut up

[npincus]

79. simply underwhelming

[WI_DEM]

80. Where does he think he can win a primary, other than Delaware?

[FlemingsGhost]

81. I'm laughing. (n/t)

Flem.

[shanti]

82. that's nice, biden....

:eyes:

[troubleinwinter]

83. NO THANK YOU.
