why don't you ask democrats why they didn't like Biden in the primary. he basically had no impact. Biden has never made a ripple on the national scene, yet Obama bypasses Clinton, who he barely beat for the nomination and has rabid national support, for a guy who scored a zero in the primary.

arljim, I said "already" in reference to this thread, and to several people "already" weighing in with a big negative on Biden with only a handful of responses given at this time.

What politicians do some of you guys "like". If you like either of the Bush's or Cheney, I doubt we can have a constructive conversation because I find support for that trio, in any form, politically or personally, unimaginable.

I do like some aspects of McCain's personality, though I wouldn't want him to be President

I was actually a fan of what Mark Warner was able to accomplish as Gov. of Virginia.

Why? He never married Elizabeth Taylor.

well i guess we can't have a constructive conversation for some reason, because i do like Dick Cheney quite a bit. politically and personally, and i have no problem with either of the Bushes personally although neither was a favorite politically.

That's okay, ARLJIM, we can still talk horses on other threads.

Communication can be a bit "funny" sometimes with strangers in a chat room/internet forum. Perhaps I overstated my ability to civilly discuss politics with a Bush-Cheney supporter

I can always put up a multitude of polls on some category here on DT, find out where we all stand on issues like abortion, gay marriage, death penalty,etc.

I might be able to have a pleasant afternoon with "W.", but even at my calmest, I still think I'd take a swing at Cheney

somerfrost · #10 08-23-2008, 02:32 PM

I know better than to get into a political discussion here....just mark me down as one vote for Obama.

Biden is perfect.
He can play the attack dog while Obama remains above the fray.
Biden will go after anybody with gusto.
Classic nice guy bad guy ticket.

Covers the foreign affair hole.

#12 08-23-2008, 02:38 PM

but first and foremost because Biden is simply not likable

I do like Dick Cheney quite a bit

Gadzooks Batman!
The parallel's between these two are astounding, just from different parties.

VP picked for presidents considered weak on foreign affairs.
Both are very opinionated and will tell one to go to hell
thus trying to maintain the good guy image of their running mate.
Both very experienced in Washington... Its a huge parallel for
diff. parties.

Hard to see I guess if you are partisan.

You dont like Biden and you do like Cheney?
I bet you also liked Tom Delay and hate Nancy Pelosi.
Cheney is so cuddly.
I dont mind getting shot in the face either.

Biden is simply not likeable but Cheney is...
Alrighty then.
