Does Joe Biden do anything to excite the democratic base? What about you Hillary supporters? What grade do u ?

Question

give Obama's choice?

Thanks!

Answer 1

A-

As far as Hillary supporters:if they are too spiteful to sabotage the Democrats' decision then that party should not be in the presidency.  It shows serious immaturity from the Hillary supporters to do this since Obama is more like Hillary than McCain is like Hillary.

Personally, I think at poll time the damage would be very minimal if at all.

The problem with selecting Hillary as a VP choice would only benefit the campaign but not a presidency.  She would constantly grab for more power in that office creating headaches and potential embarrassments.  She is a gifted politician but she would not show aquiesence... and then there's the problem with Bill --he can't stay away from the spotlight.  Between the Clintons in the VP's office any Democratic presidency would fail under the pomp of those two.  

And we certainly don't need another Cheney to a Bush... and Hillary could be (fairly or unfairly) seen as this.

Answer 2

I lived in Delaware for many years and always found Biden to be a pompous elitist @ss.  Delaware would have gone to Obama regardless of whether Biden was the choice - they are a huge democrat state.  

I think Biden polarizes the democratic nomination even more.  I give it a C.

Answer 3

I find him to be acceptable, solid, not particularly inspiring...B or B-

Answer 4

Biden will do. I think he could have done better with some others (not Hillary) though.  My grade C+.

Answer 5

At least he is representing CHANGE. Old Status Quo Joe.

Answer 6

It's the dream team.

McCain would have to get Jesus H. Christ himself as his VP to come close.

Answer 7

Oh yeah, Biden has whipped them all into a major emotional frenzy.

After all, he is going to deliver the great state of Delaware to Obama.

All six of them have been told: 'pick the one with the donkey on the name'.

When you think Delaware, what comes to mind?  

Yep, my answer was the same, nothing, not a damned thing,  

Answer 8

Well, instead of a convention bounce, Obama lost 2 points in the polls and the WSJ did a survey of Hillary supporters that now says 50% of her supporters will either support McCain or stay home.

Now, the Obama campaign has basically stated that they don't need Hillary supporters in a press release this morning. Dumb Dumb Dumb.  

Answer 9

I'd give it a solid 8 of 10.  I like Mr. Biden, but it probably isn't going to change many peoples minds.
