Biden’s selection produces no positive polling bounce for Obama campaign
According to Gallup polling, the Biden announcement has generated practically no bounce for Obama’s campaign. That’s unusual, since a candidate normally picks up a few points when he adds a Vice-President to the ticket… Typically, presidential candidates have gotten a bump in the polls after naming their vice presidential running mate. Obama apparently received no [...]

Here are a few reactions from DailyKos commenters, discussing Barack Obama’s selection of Joe Biden as the Democratic vice-presidential nominee… ———— I wanted Clark too, and I have to admit I’m pretty let down that it’s Biden. But I’ve known for some time that it wouldn’t be my guy. ———— Ho hum. Not inspired. Hair plugs and plagerism. I will be interested [...]

Saturday, August 23, 2008
Barack Obama picked Joe Biden to be his running mate this morning. You couldn’t ask for a much better choice, really. A white guy who has been in the Senate for over 35 years. A Washington insider who has run twice for President and failed both times. Represents Delaware - a [...]

Saturday, August 23, 2008
In a text message sent out to journalists all over the world just minutes ago, Barack Obama announced that he has officially selected Delaware Senator Joe Biden as his running mate.

But, I actually agree 100% with Ralph Nader and Michael Moore. Barack Obama’s choice of a running mate is expected within the next few hours, and the rumors are flying in full force. Will it be Joe Biden? Chet Edwards? Evan Bayh? Someone totally different? Maybe even Hillary Clinton? Well, [...]

Friday, August 22, 2008
Texan Chet Edwards is being vetted by the Obama campaign for Vice-President and is being pushed heavily by Nancy Pelosi. He’s a nine-term Congressman who represents the area that includes President Bush’s ranch. His last name might very well be working against him. Creating an Obama/Edwards ticket would bring back memories of Kerry/Edwards… even [...]

In this audio clip taken from YouTube, then State Senator Barack Obama coldly claims two doctors helping a baby born alive after a botched abortion would be a burden for the aborting mother.

Wednesday, August 20, 2008
According to the Politico, Ralph Nader is telling people that he fully expects that Barack Obama will name Hillary Clinton as his running-mate in the next few days. Nader suggests that Obama can’t really pick anyone else, as all other available choices are uninspiring empty suits. “I don’t think he’s that dumb,” said Nader, commenting [...]

Wednesday, August 20, 2008
The Democratic and Republican conventions are stacked right on top of each other. Generally, there isn’t expected to be any significant news out of either event. They will just be carefully scripted shows designed to introduce their candidates to the American public. But it’s doubtful many people will change their minds based [...]

Monday, August 18, 2008
Likely Democratic nominee Barack Obama met with T. Boone Pickens to discuss energy policy today. The two men would be unlikely allies, as Pickens has been a staunch Republican who heavily funded the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth organization that’s largely credited for destroying John Kerry’s Presidential campaign back in 2004. When asked [...]
