| Biden in N.H.: 'I'm running for president' |
| 2006-06-19 |
 DOVER, N.H. -- Calling the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks a greater shock to the American psyche than Pearl Harbor, Sen. Joe Biden said Saturday that Democrats must demonstrate they can provide for national security to win back the presidency. The Delaware Democrat spoke to more than 100 people gathered at an event organized by Strafford County Democrats. "I'm running for president -- flat out," he said, adding his party should learn to be more blunt. |

| #13 Biden is going after the modern day Harold Stassen record of futility. Good ruck Joe! |

| #12 Biden strode up the aisle between folding chairs as he spoke, leaning over to make some of his points face to face with his listeners. "Folding" ....he'll be doing a lot of that I suspect. |

| #11 "I'm running for president -- flat out," That phrase seems familiar - maybe I heard it before. |

| #10 #3: "...some small states simply don't have two intelligent people to send to the Senate." Some of the largest states don't, either. Actually you're both right and wrong at the same time. The intelligent folks are too busy to run for frat house president, leaving the losers to fight it out in the polls. |

| #9 Better get a headstart and have your staff start researching English politicians speeches you can plagarize. Just to beat the rush... |

| #5 So who's notes are you going to lift this time? I know you've had time for your staff to dig deeper, but the internet has also gotten bigger. |

| #4 Well stated, Dave. The one thread I find common among democrats is corruption. Democrats must believe all America is corrupt, therefore not worth saving. |

| #3 "...some small states simply don't have two intelligent people to send to the Senate." Some of the largest states don't, either. Ah, well. Even though I was a Democrat for 31 years, I'll never again vote for another one of those idiots for President-- or for any other public office, for that matter. And I have ZERO respect for anyone who does after seeing the Democratic Party in action since 9/11. The Democratic Party WILL NOT provide for America's security. They will not, because their base on the Left does not believe that America is worth defending. |

| #2 Jeebus, does he have any idea what's going to happen to him if he even polls 0.5%? All the things we know and dislike about Joe, all the things that came up last time he ran futilely for president, are going to come back again. Loudly. Joe Biden is an argument against the Founding Fathers' Great Compromise -- some small states simply don't have two intelligent people to send to the Senate. |

| #1 Okay, Sen. Biden, I can be just as blunt, I'm will not vote for you in 2008. That's one for the polls. Please have them call me, so I can register my exit vote of not having voted for you with them so there is no false record of my vote. No for Biden. Shall I send my vote to your office, so there will be no question of how I voted? Just tryin' to help, you know. What you what is yours. But don't want you to have mine, that isn't yours. |
