Hello, good people of the Joe Biden group on DU, and if you

have a moment, I hope you will accept congratulations for the strong praise Joe Biden is receiving from DU these days.

Since Obama's decision to go with Joe, a lot of doubters have become believers, and even the holdouts begrudgingly concede that Biden is a huge lift for this ticket.

That Biden is the real deal is not news to you -- you've known that all along and held true to it through thick and thin.

But it has to be a bone-deep pleasure for you to see such a good man validated like this.

Hat's off to ya, and now let's run up the score on McCain!

1. Thank you OC!

:hi: Now, if we could just get the media onboard. They're coming along, but they need to leave out dragging him through the mud, before they praise him. They just need to start with the praise, and finish with it. :-)

3. And you've always been a strong champion for Joe, too, OC -- you

saw what we saw, and we've always been most appreciative of your support and fairness.

Hat's off back at ya! :pals:

5. Thanks gateley, but I'm so thrilled with this ticket I can hardly

concentrate on anything else. What a duo.

And how much they'll be appreciated if we can shove hard and get them elected.

The country could use a lift!

8. Thanks!

It does really please me for others to see "the real Joe". I was lucky enough to see him in Michigan this week, and he is even more impressive in person.

Thanks to you, too, for support you have given in the past.

Go Joe...go Obama! Best team I've seen!

10. Hey, you're one of our good people too - you just probably have better things to do

than post endlessly here :7

Thanks, OC, it's been a long, changing, rewarding ride so far and much to come!

12. Not at all. We're doing some volunteering for some local elections

but Biden is so completely at home on the campaign trail it just feels great to watch him and hear him.

And I really do think Palin is in for a very high-pressure evening in the veep debate. With poise and courtesy and deference, I think Biden is going to dissemble her on global news television.

11. You are very kind, OC. Our party had several good and well qualified persons

that could have made up our ticket. For that I am grateful. We have settled on two gentlemen with, I think, rare and magical chemistry and the country...the world, will be better off for it. Let's now body-slam these republican parasites and move quickly to the future.

14. Thanks for the Recognition

It is no secret that I have passionately supported Mr. Biden from day one. He was my choice for President. It is strange (in some small way) to see people "discovering" the kind of person Biden has been all along. Many of us saw this passion, this dedication, this statesmanship from the very beginning knowing that this was not only the most qualified candidate on either side, but that he was exactly what this country needed at this critical time. While I would have rather seen a Biden/Obama ticket, I am pleased that Biden is there by Obama's side and will help guide him with qualified advice and unquestioned experience.

16. Hi OC!!!

The funny thing to me is how perfect Biden is as a VP candidate.
I realize that now. His personality, his knowledge, his style is actually better suited to being VP.

We have the perfect ticket and WE'RE GONNA WIN THIS THING!
