Edwards and Obama are dead...time to send the $$$ to Biden!!!
Biden has shown that he is Hillary's boss on the grandstand, now he needs the big $$$ to show those in the BIG state primaries the same thing. I honestly think he is the only one who is Repugnant proof and carries the least 'baggage' as far as ill feelings in the voters go. Why not give this guy a chance!

I am not saying that Obama or Edwards are bad people, just that they cannot defeat Hillary who in turn has a really, really large miracle to pull off in order to win the general. Biden can do that, his record has some spots in it, but Joe Voter will blow those off.

Think about it, Both Edwards and Obama have been given more money than all of the Repugnants combined so far, and STILL they trail Hillary.

If Hillary is the nominee I will support her, but until that time I will work my arse off to help someone with the skills and brains to do a better job in the general election and after the inaugeration.

GIVE THE MAN A CHANCE - GIVE HIM THE $$$ TO MAKE AN HONEST RACE OF IT!

1. Because we all know how well he defeats women
Who dare to work in a man's world. Ask Anita Hill.

Sorry, Biden is poison.

11. Silly.
Biden blew the Clarence Thomas hearings by not being more supportive of Anita Hill. But in the end Biden voted against Thomas's confirmation.

Biden has good ratings among women's groups.

2. Really, he voted for the IWR, he had no problem with the bankrupcy bill,
and may be talking the talk right now, but after watching him question alito during the confirmation hearings, he took 25 minutes, out of the 30 minute time allocated, to pontificate how great he was at wasting his allotated time instead of asking the questions that NEEDED TO BE ASKED

I don't trust him. He's smart, but biden is too much into biden

3. And he's Dem of choice for the Sunday pundits.
Which alone should tell you not to touch him with a ten-foot pole.

8. Then why isn't he getting the traction? He has been around for long enough
He was the first candidate to jump in the race, which actually might not have been strategically the best move.

There are plenty of positions I don't agree with Biden on, but he does present himself well as of late.

It is too bad that Bidden, Dodd, or Richardsan are not getting more coverage, since they seem to be the least evasive on the issues, excluding Kucinich who always answers the questions

10. Or maybe its cause he is running for president and needs all the exposure he can get?
Ever think of that?

5. They're dead, huh? What a tasteless headline. And untrue.

6. I like him but
sometimes he says really really dumb things (one example calling Obama clean and articulate) that could really come back to haunt him.
