Will Biden's Racial Slurs be Part of Obama's VP Pick Coverage?

Sort by NewsBusters (Free subscription) - 23/08/2008

As my colleague Mark Finkelstein reported Saturday, the racial slurs/gaffes of Sen. Joe Biden have already been discussed as " one of his strengths ." Despite this surprising segment on Saturday's special edition of MSNBC's "Morning Joe," one has to wonder just how much coverage the various racially insensitive remarks by the Delaware Senator are going to get in the coming days as press members analyze...

McCain advisor Carly Fiorina told a St. Louis radio station, when asked, that though she supported John McCain to be President, she didn't think he could run a major corporation, as the two jobs require different skill sets. She later...

PLEASE Let it Be Joe Biden or Tim Kaine

Could Obama's VP pick seriously be this lame? I'm just passing on the latest I'm hearing--that Sen. Joe Biden (D-Del.) is moving up on the list of potential running mates for presumptive Democratic nominee Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.). While Obama's heart may go towards Virginia Gov. Tim Kaine--his head takes him to a more experienced pick, a Sen. Evan Bayh (D-Ind.) or Biden, chairman of the Senate...

By Kate Sheppard Joe Biden. Tonight's vice presidential debate is by far the most anticipated of this election cycle. In the right corner, newcomer Sarah Palin. In the left, Joe Biden, a senator who's been in office since Palin was "in, like, the second grade."

Why Biden’s Racist Behind Ain’t Gonna Be VP

Sort by Jack and Jill Politics (Free subscription) - 19/08/2008

RealClearPolitics’ VP Watch said that Chris Bowers’ analysis of Biden as a VP pick amounted almost to a Netroots endorsement. Bowers said: Maybe my support for Biden is mainly a testament to how poor the crop of potential candidates is than anything else. After all, being preferable to Evan Bayh isn’t really saying much of at [...]

Obama picks Joe Biden to be VP nominee (am I allowed to smile?)

Sort by Badger Blogger (Free subscription) - 23/08/2008

Barack Obama has selected to be his running mate, a man that only a few months ago called Obama “not ready to be president…” But at least he thinks he is articulate bright and clean (where does that leave Al Sharpton or Jesse Jackson'). I’m sure Biden will bring the 7-11 and Dunkin’ Doughnuts owning Indian [...]

Obama stuck it to the Hillary PUMA crowd by picking Mr MotorMouth himself, Joe Biden, for his VP, and they're gonna stick it right back to him by voting for John McCain now that it's certain that Hillary is out of the picture, absent some obscene revolt at the convention which is always a possibility from that side of the fence.
