So...ummm...if Biden wins the nomination we are still supporting him right?

[The Straight Story]

:popcorn: :hide: :popcorn:

(I am, just remembered all the hillary threads of same stripes and thought it was worth asking with Biden....)

Edited to add: Edwards has a huge house!

[Deep13]

1. **sigh** yeah. nt

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

2. I'll be voting for the most progressive anti-war candidate on the ballot.

[Horse with no Name]

3. Still supporting?

Who was supporting him in the first place?:evilgrin:

[The Straight Story]

5. His jockstrap

:)

[hedgehog]

4. How dare you distract us from all the I won't support (fill in the blank ) threads!

[Double T]

6. gulp!!...........then Biden it is.

BUT, it will NEVER happen.

[Lex]

7. To me that is such a remote possibility that it won't keep me up

at night pondering if I can support him if he wins the primary.

[The Straight Story]

14. I am thinking he might get chosen as a running mate

It would be a Dan Quayle moment....

[emulatorloo]

16. I maybe wrong, but I don't think he has a snowball's chance in Hell of either

VP or Pres nomination. I don't think he is really serious about it either.

I guess I will owe you $5.00 if he is nominated VP.

[emulatorloo]

8. 1. he wont get the nom 2. another repug president will DESTROY us

So yeah on the infintesimal chance that Joe Biden will get the nom, I would vote for him.

[WI_DEM]

9. it is highly remote, but yes if he does, he will have my support.

[The Straight Story]

10. I suppose we would have to say nice things about him then, hmmmm

I better start the brain on that now cause it might take awhile :)

[RedStateShame]

11. At the least, he'll get a cabinet position.

Guaranteed. For one, his Iraq plan makes the most sense.

[SunDrop23]

12. I'll support whoever gets the nom...but it ain't going to be Biden.

Print it.

[wryter2000]

23. My sentiments exactly n/t

n/t

[saltpoint]

13. You bet. In truth I think his odds are pretty long, but your

question is a good one. If he wins the nomination, do we stand by him?

We should. If he is the nominee, then his delegate count at the Denver convention represents a plurality or majority of Democrats just like us who voted for him. Their votes aren't better or worse than ours if ours went to someone else's candidacy.

Also in this current international landscape, we could do a lot worse on foreign policy. Biden, for whatever specific votes you object to about him, has given us many liberal votes over a long period -- all of them valuable -- and knows foreign policy, not an unhandy thing to know after 8 years of the Bush administration, whose foreign policy is being conducted by individuals who are unable to distinguish their nether orifices from a hole in the ground.

This is no time to limit discussion or dialogue on foreign policy. Biden knows his stuff. And he's playing on the blue team.

15. I honestly can't see him winning the nom, but if he does I will vote for him.

Hoping for a better option though. I think Biden, all his flaws notwithstanding, might make an ok VP. Still, there are others I would prefer.

[Bobbie Jo]

17. Since this is based in fantasy...of course I will.

As I would support any of the Dem candidates who end up with the nom.

I may not be as enthusiastic in my support for Biden...but with this cluster*fuck we're in, even old Joe is looking pretty good. :eyes:

[in_cog_ni_to]

18. Well, if he had a chance in hell of winning the nomination, yes. He'd get my vote.

I feel pretty safe that will never happen though.

[goodhue]

19. Sure

He's pretty fly for a white guy

[The Straight Story]

20. He seems pretty clean and articulate for a white guy too (nt)

[AndyA]

21. I don't think Biden stands a chance, but if a miracle happens and he wins, he's got my vote.

He would be 200% better than what we have now.

[wryter2000]

22. Darn, I forgot about the HOUSE

Damn that HOUSE!

[ellie]

24. I don't think we have

to worry. Biden has a snowball's chance in hell in getting the nomination.
