I just got off the phone with....

[Steely_Dan]

Biden's Campaign HQ. The young man was very nice and understood our frustration. He was feeling the same way. He mentioned that there was even one lady who called who was crying the whole time because Biden would not be running. Finally, he directed me to call Joe's Office in DC. I did...

A nice lady answered the phone, but was far less receptive. It wasn't that she was rude...but she seemed somewhat detached. I expressed my frustration and that something had to be done. She said she would pass on my call to Biden's Chief of Staff. She did say that they were receiving a lot of calls.

On Edit: She did say that "at this time, Joe did not intend to re-enter the race."

1. Any clue as to how we can still contribute to him?

I'd still like to help pay off the debt for the campaign.

2. That, I don't know...

But here is the number to the campaign HQ: [phone]

Maybe they can answer that question.

3. "at this time"?

I know its grasping at straws, but that is reason for a very wee bit of optimism.

4. I Don't Know...

The tone was not hopeful in that sense. However, it sounded as if she had said it many times to many callers.

She didn't sound very pleased. I must admit that I was quite determined and might have been a little too strong. Oh well...I do feel strongly about this.

5. Well if it sounded like she'd said it many times,

that means it wasn't a slip of the tongue, but something she was instructed to say.

6. Exactly

[elleng]

7. Right;

it took some thought!!!

Believe it or not, that's the type of thing one hangs onto for a long while!

8. He has no plans at this time and that's what we're trying to impact...

of course he'll never have any such plan if we all just shut up. That's the point of making ourselves pests. KEEP THE CALLS AND POSTS UP!!!!
