Better than Hillary.

You know, Honey, as much as I think we are suffering as AA's from the daily bombardment of racist innuendo in the MSM, the Muslims are really catching hell. It just seems so cruel to me. O can't even apologize to them for the bigotry of our nation without getting squashed and losing the presidency. The sentiments expressed against these people are ugly and I hate them. It is shameful.

CNN reports it is Biden as VP. They also announced Tubbs-Jones dead before she actually died so take it as you will.

Ha ha ha! Biden's the man!
Teacher
I'm glad you're happy too. Were those real flowers on your cake or icing ones? I wish you all a lifetime of happiness. All you need is love.

them folks are going crazy with one half-black/white dude, you put two dark skinned cats and the KKK will be holding rallies in downtown Los Angeles, Chicago, and Philly.

It's Joe Biden. I hope JJP isn't going to back down from that post!

NMP,
AS IF that would help. Because, you and I both know, that the MEDIA should have gotten the answers to these questions.

McCaca is having his macaca moment.
Still don't believe it'll be Biden; I'm going with the Obama three point play at half-court – Brian Schweitzer.

He's the No Drama Obama head fake.

TRW,
Telling the simple truth here.
My memory is as long as yours.

I'm with you.

Beautiful couple. Congratulations and as the Italians say “Cent'anni” roughly, a hundred more years.

Something tells me it's not a headfake.

I don't think it is Biden because I believe what Obama said – that it would be texted first before the media knows.
His campaign has been really good at keeping his cards close to his vest. I just don't think the media's on the right track with this.

Me too, I think he can hang with the shit talkers.

That's a very good point. It brings to mind the careful separation of their finances. I think Cindy's father was alive when they married. It could be, they encouraged the marriage, and “groomed” McCain.
TruthSeeker
You're so right. Can you imagine him taking on her debt? How can you be considered for VP with such a huge campaign debt? Furthermore, I don't believe Hillary wanted it. There's no way she'd submit to vetting by O's team…too damn proud/arrogant.
It was NEVER going to happen.
TruthSeeker
I was hoping for someone explosive, like Gore….and much less likely, Powell.
Can you imagine the shock waves???
Anyway, I think Biden will fight for Obama. I don't sense any guile or treachery in him….despite his gaffes.
TruthSeeker
Richardson was on earlier, and they asked him when the announcement would come…he wouldn't commit but he made a point of saying “after midnight”….not tomorrow, or Saturday…but “after midnight” and sure enough, John King broke the story about quarter to.

Y'all are right. Apparently, according to East Coast, Kossacks they sent out text messages @ 3 AM EDT! Eh hee!
I'm on the West Coast, so I haven't gotten mine yet. Probably won't until 3 AM PDT.
3 AM. That's cold. That's cold-blooded cool.

Well, unlike Cindy McCain, at least Obama acknowledges his existence.
pjamma
Well his campaign didn't say anything but when you have hundreds of reporters camped out all over the place and making guesses it's bound to get out. The MSM was determined to scoop the story.
Val
Teacher – great point. It is horrible. I try to address these comments when I see them but you are right.. . . . it is a terrible thing the bigotry toward muslims.
