What are your opinions on him as a Democratic Presidential candidate in 2008? Just watched an interview he gave on Hardball and I think he had some valid points. Let me know what you think, good or bad............

He is definately running he has stated that more than once and is already taking doantions to his campaign. Do I think he is a good candidate? NO!!!!!!! Will he win the democratic nomination? Only if he kills half his opponents and Iwould not put that past him. If he somehow wins the nomination will he win the general election? Hello President McCain or President Rice, or President Republican somebody. If the Democrats want to stand a chance Senators Biden, Clinton, and Kerry need to forget about running. Otherwise say to another 4 and possibly 8 years of Republicans in the white house. Those of you that want to vote according to what he says on television talk shows or radio talk shows for that matter are what is wrong with this country sit down and do your homework find out who he is as with almost every politician tose interviews are filled with lies. These people will say anything to get into office and then when they get in it will be business as usual. Why do you think John Kerry lost. He said what he thought people wanted to hear and that changed from day to day and all of his two faced lies were exposed as well as a lot of people did there homework and found out who he really is.

Sure, he's a good democrat - whatever it is, he's a against it. He hates this country with a passion, and would never utter a statesman-like thought even if there were someone moving his lips for him. He's always got a good sound bite - he would've done this, he would've done that - what the administration is doing makes no sense at all - what he doesn't talk about is that he was there when we went after Iraq, and he voted for it. He was yakking about how we had to go after Saddam when his buddy the serial rapist, Clinton, was still in office... Now he sees the world completely differently - because his party is out of power and he can't do anything but take potshots and criticize, rather than get off his dead butt and offer meaningful insight. Typical democrat - won't do a thing to help his country, unless his party can take credit for it...

No comment on Joe Biden, haven't heard too much about his views, although he did make a racial remark about people from India and there wasn't anything on the news about it, but if that had been a republican that made that remark, it would be all over the country and the world.

Every interview I have seen of him he has sounded intelligent and rational. At this point, having not followed his career to carefully and only seen interviews on shows such as Meet the Press, I personally would vote for him over any of the currently talked about Republican or Democratic candidates.
However, should a Democrat such as Obama run or an intelligent, moderate, Republican run (McCain has long since lost those titles), I may vote for that person. But in my opinion Biden would beat out another Kerry run, Hilary, McCain, Bush (Jeb), etc.

I don't think it matters what puppet the dumbocraps throw at the presidancy, It might as well be Jock Strap Chirak.
A majority of americans already know it is the intention of the DNC to destroy everything good about America!

I would vote for him in a flat second. At last a real politician who has a brain who'd a thunk it! He knows his way around a diplomatic situation and would leave hillary in the dust on solutions to our problems here at home as well as a broad we NEED this guy very badly someone who's serious not a sound bite whore. At least he would be better than the current president by light years and would go a long way towards coming down foriegn nations and undoing bush's damage to this nation and to everybody else we've crapped on.

Saw him on "Meet the Press"...he won my vote. He's main point was that there is too much attention on special interest groups in DC and that the two parties had to work together to solve issues. He made it clear that DC has to go back to working for the people and that the public wants actions not talk.

He tried in 1988, but then he got caught plagerizing the late British Labour Party leader Neil Kinnock & then he withdrew. Besides he won't stand a chance against ANY Republican, nor will his son who is running for Atty General of Delaware.

I've always thought of Joe Biden as the quintessential opportunist politician and, in the Senate anyway, he's only outclassed in this quality by Chuck Schumer and Queen Hillary the Great herself.
