Is Bob Schrum running Joe Biden's campaign?
Seriously?

As I read a lot of the postings here from the Bidenites it seems like they are all trying position him as an alternative to Clinton, Edwards and Obama. Now he has an ad with those candidates saying "I agree with Biden".

OK, If those candidates agree with Biden, why should their voters change positions and vote for Biden?

This has to be the worst peice of political advertizing since Dukakis in the tank.

1. Joe Biden is the only
grown up in the field.

Why vote for a "me too" candidate when you could vote for the one guy that could hit the ground running...

6. You really like to waddle in mischief, don't you, inthebrain? You now insult Biden's supporters.
Edited on Mon Nov-26-07 10:53 PM by David Zephyr
Don't you have a life beyond starting accusatory threads that belittle other DU'ers?

You remind me of those that hate Hillary Clinton.

Dude, you are obsessed with Joe Biden. For your sake, I truly hope you get some fresh air.

7. I'm not bashing any DUers
I just don't see how this seperates Biden from the other candidates.

Perhaps I should talk about how he pours a lousy a cup of coffee or something. Last time he kissed a baby, he dropped it.

Now, if I really wanted to piss people off I would start there.

Triangualating is stupid. It just doesn't work. As I see this ad all I see is Biden claiming "I'm like them and they are like me, we all agree!!!!"

It doesn't really tell me what he's offering that differs from the other candidates. Quite frankly, there isn't much that differs him from them except his abortions stances are horrible and he doesn't stand up to the credit card companies.

Other than that I don't see a difference.

9. Sincere question -
"Last time he kissed a baby, he dropped it."

What happened? Is this for real?

Thanks.

Edited on Tue Nov-27-07 12:27 AM by Froward69
after he dropped the baby he kicked it too... way cool in my book then he handed out high interest credit cards to everyone it was awesome... then Ozzy walked in, like right on que, and they bit the heads off of bats. spit the blood on the crying mother as she held the now limp baby. hes got my vote.
on edit=:sarcasm: now THATS alternative politicking.

14. I suppose this is officially your coming out party?
Edited on Tue Nov-27-07 12:52 AM by inthebrain
I suppose not one of your Bidenites are going to set you straight on this one.

It really was not secret who he was reaching out to in those comments. Now you're sticking your little turtle head out your little turtle shell.

PS Maybe you should have taken your own advice and ignored me.

18. I hate gay people?
WTF are you talking about.

Please show me where I have EVER fucking posted anything resembling hatred towards gay people.

YOU on the other hand seem to think racism is something to celebrate.

19. If you don't get the message of the ad, then you're not smart enough to vote for Biden anyway

20. Articulate on it
My idea of proving that you are an alternative to the other candidates is to go at an issue that you are right on, that they claim you got wrong.

Chances are, an ad with everyone claiming you are right on something just says "we agree, we are all the same". It's extremely Bob Schrumesque.

I like that DK makes those attempts.

As much as I am not big on Edwards, at least he's trying to do that to. Although I find most of it dishonest.

At least it opens up the dialogue on the issues. Watching Hillary and Obama go back and forth is tiring.
