Biden says "hillary might have been a better pick?"

[imax2268]

The headline was on Drudge...sorry but I check from time to time to see what's going on...here's the link...

Tell me this isn't true...or made up...

1. He just effusively praised Clinton when someone in the crowd

started talking her down.

[ShortnFiery]

2. Why are we feeding a Rove inspired DRUDGE new's cycle?

:grr:

[BlooInBloo]

10. It's just what DUers do. It's a lost battle. Sigh.

[merh]

26. Oh christ - go watch his acceptance speech

then read the huffington article about the 11 million new dem voters registered

then get off of DU and breath - walk around and realize, DU is not the universe and there is hope, never give up the hope.

[BlooInBloo]

27. wtf are you talking about? lol!

[merh]

30. oh, sorry - read your post wrong

I thought you were posting a doom and gloom comment about the campaign.
When I read it again I realized you were just noting that some duers post garbage.

:blush: sorry :blush:

But may want to watch his speech again - it was really good :silly: :patriot:

[BlooInBloo]

34. No one was ever the worse for watching Obama talk!

:)

19. I don't fucking know....

3. Seems to be a direct quote...

"She’s a truly close personal friend, she is qualified to be president of the United States of America, she’s easily qualified to be vice president of the United States of America, and quite frankly, it might have been a better pick than me."

[ShortnFiery]

4. Biden is being humble. Wake up! Biden is the Democratic Nominee for VP. No need to rehash HRC.

[sf_331]

9. I know...

I simply wanted to point out that it wasn't made up like the OP asked.

[Life Long Dem]

18. Saying that was so uncalled for.

Why this is even on the mind of someone mystifies me.

[Divine Discontent]

5. It's complimentary... smart move. not sure why the OP says they hope its not true.... its humility.

[JI7]

6. but it was in response to someone who was being critical of Hillary

and how he was glad Hillary was not vp.

[Sebastian Doyle]

20. ....taken ridiculously out of context.

But I'll bet you already knew that.

[The Traveler]

7. Character. Respect. Humility.

Joe Biden is the real deal.

[NoSheep]

8. Biden was just being modest, the way I read it. It's just not a big deal.

No need to repeat that bastard's name (Think: Search Engine Optimization) to raise his Google rankings

[Union Thug]

11. That's my take, too. He seems like a gracious guy. n/t

[NoSheep]

28. He's been a Democrat for a loooong time ;-)

[imax2268]

12. hey relax everyone...I'm not a pukie...

yes it was a headline on drudge...sorry...but a puke was talking shit and I was trying to find out if it was taken out of context or not...you never know what these repukes will stoop to these days...

[ShortnFiery]

14. Understood. But our whorish M$M would jump at the chance to waste a news cycle on this tripe.

Let's categorically REFUSE to feed that inane beastie?

[imax2268]

25. no problem...

see...I knew I could count on DU to get the story straight...

[NoSheep]

29. 's okay

[Marsala]

13. Any chance at all this won't dominate the next news cycle?

I'm not optimistic.

[blondeatlast]

24. Hardly exciting enough. He was clearly being gracious; only FAUX

will even try to spin it as anything more.

It's hard to feast on a baby carrot.

[NYC_SKP]

31. Yea, only FAUX and trolls and comment #23 nt.

[Fridays Child]

15. Biden was paying her a compliment.

The right wing media weasels are desperate for any topic that keeps McCain from having to discuss the issues important to Americans. They know he doesn't have what it takes and that scares the shit out of them.

[1corona4u]

22. Exactly.

[crimsonblue]

16. he was just being gracious...

Obama has made clear that Biden is the best person for the job.

[1corona4u]

17. Do we have to go through THIS again!!!

Biden is a MODEST MAN. He is humble. He was just being complementary to Hillary.

Sheesh....There's a WHOLE big ass thread about this from earlier.

[imax2268]

21. good grief...

sorry for asking a question...

[geek tragedy]

23. Joe is right, she would have made a better pick.

Evidence: this statement.

[windbreeze]

32. Sometimes I wonder why

I come here....I can read this crap anywhere on the web...he was responding to what was said, and what he said is being taken out of it's proper context...just like it was when Gen.Clark responded to a question about whether McCain's POW status made him more qualified to be Prez...same sort of thing...God, can't we for once stop falling for the shit they throw out there just to see if it will stick?? wb

[unfrigginreal]

33. Hillary supporter here

Joe was just being overly gracious because he's such a decent man. We have our team and it's Obama-Biden.

Hillary's for them, Bill's for them and their supporters (almost all) are for them.

No need to worry about what Puke Drudge has to say about it.

[merh]

35. what a lovely post

thank you
