Will Joe Biden give the Democrats the backbone they need to fight back against the negative McCain Ads?

Question

I just think Obama is too nice when it comes to smear campaigns, which the republicans have mastered, can Barack now use Biden to fight back considering Biden won't take no c**p!

Answer 1

The Vice Presidential pick has historically meant little to nothing in Presidential elections.  For example, Dan Quayle was possibly the worst selection as Vice President, and Bush still won.

Joe Biden is an attack dog, no doubt about it.  Will he be the the reason the ticket wins or loses? No.  It all starts at the top of the ticket my friends, and that's the reason Obama will lose.

Answer 2

Good one Big 'T"

Biden (who I like and has a son in Iraq) will never the less be

good energy  to explode him

Answer 3

I hear that Biden is very outspoken and straightforward---so hey, we might just be in for a good surprise.....

Answer 4

Yes, absolutely

Answer 5

Yes, that could be one of the main reasons Obama picked Biden.  Biden's comment that Rudy Giuliani's speeches consisted of nothing besides "a noun, a verb and 9/11" brought Rudy down.

Answer 6

WHAT LOL A RANTING MAN WHO'S RAN TWICE NOBODY WANTED HIS A**  HAS MADE RACIAL COMMENTS AND DOESN'T BELIEVE IN THE CRACKHEAD THAT CHOSE HIM HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Answer 7

Obviously you do not pay attention Liberals/the Clintons actually have perfected smear politics.  However if McCain were to go "down that road"  and not just point out the facts of Obama, Biden is a negative add.  And it could be hard for Biden to "fight back"  when he has been one of McCain's biggest supporters.  Remember Biden urged Kerry to pick McCain for the 03' election, or do you just spew without research.

Answer 8

Not at all. Biden will be the reason the DNC loses yet another presidential election.

Answer 9

I wrote about it all in my blog check it out here: http://polaff.blogspot.com/

Answer 10

Biden also said in 2007 that Obama was not qualified to be president....don't forget the "Clean and articulate" comment about Obama...

Also a 30 + year old white male Washington insider....

Come on in one swoop Obama negated all that "Change" rhetoric.... he just gave a script more than a candidate to the McCain Camp

Answer 11

Biden gives McCain material for anti-Democrat ads.

Obama said he is for change but he picked a career politician who said he supports McCain and not Obama.

Answer 12

Does Good prevail over evil ? I think that Obama and Biden are the perfect Good team.

Answer 13

NO

Joe Biden will just give  McCain a lot more Foder.

See Joe,  See Joe put his foot in mouth

STOP the Liberal campaign of HATE and LIES

No more taLiberal Hate and Lies

Answer 14

Let's hope so. Back in 2004, Kerry muzzled John Edwards when Edwards wanted to go on the attack. Kerry was a sissy and lost. Obama should feed Biden gun powder and let him wreck havoc on Bush/McCain.

Answer 15

The potential vice president is usually used as an attack dog position. The vice presidential selection isn't going to make or break a ticket, usually.

That said, Biden will do all the attacking, and Obama will look as though he is above the fray. McCain is looking too negative, and that will come back to haunt him in November.

Answer 16

It's gotta be better than the whining Obama has been doing.
