^ Yeah, I've liked him a lot, when it comes to beating the tar out of these people about Iraq.

He's a real fire breather when he gets going, and he'll make a good foil to Obama's generally laid back demeanor.

The VP debate will be sure to be entertaining.

Its going to be interesting to see how McCain will continue to tackle foreign affairs as an election issue now. the Obama campaign just got a lot stronger in that area. McCain might have just lost his "not experienced enough" soundbite.

Hahaha! The Democrats do everything they can to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

I'm the change candidate -- I'll run with Mr.Establishment-McCain clone.
I'm against Iraq -- I'll run with pro-war pro-big military guy.

Biden is going to have to stay off TV, or it will show how weak Obama is and how much better Biden is at tough talk. I hope McCain picks a woman to really neuter Biden's powers here (plus it will upset Hilary fans). Biden is going to look bad in debates trying to be nice if he is debating some polite midwest Gov.-type woman VP candidate.

Obama picked the worst person though if he is weak in military and foreign affairs because Biden is the perfect person to underscore Obama's weaknesses and lack of experience by picking Mr. Experience.

He is a rip off. Anti privacy anti privacy and anti encryption. Not net neutral.

Screw this crap.

Why do people fall for the two party crap? There are more choices out there. When he gets elected and shit hits the fan... or MCcain for that matter Ill say "I fucking told you so."

NetRunnersays...

^ Obama is for net neutrality and privacy, and I doubt he has a stated position on encryption. Biden won't be Dick Cheney.

You only get to say "I told you so" if you suggest who to vote for, and don't get your way.

Stamping your feet about the two party system less than 3 months before the Presidential election is just silly (not that you're the only one doing it).

Who did you vote for in the Congressional elections in 2006? Third parties need to start there, rather than trying to repeat Lincoln's hat trick.
