‘Joe, run': Draft Biden PAC launches ad campaign

[Acebb]

When Ms. Inevitable's campaign is an utter disaster this tends to happen:

The Draft Biden super PAC has launched an ad campaign trying to encourage Vice President Biden to enter the 2016 Democratic presidential nomination contest, using his personal story of trying to overcome tragedies with his family to find "redemption."

It marks an intensifying effort to demonstrate that there is enough financial support among Democratic donors to support a late-breaking entry by Biden, who has spent the past two months considering the presidential race following a mourning period after his 46-year-old son, Beau, died May 30 after a long battle with brain cancer.

The 90-second spot does not mention his son's death, only alludes to it, but it traces the arc of Biden's 43-year career in Washington, beginning with the December 1972 car crash that left his first wife and daughter dead and his two sons in a hospital trying to rehabilitate.

"By focusing on my sons, I found my redemption," the vice president says in the ad, using his own words to tell the story.

It has been reported that if he is running he will announce it by Monday.

Politicize everything:

Exclusive: Biden himself leaked word of his son's dying wish

Aug. 1, to be exact — the day renowned Hillary Clinton-critic Maureen Dowd published a column that marked a turning point in the presidential speculation.

According to multiple sources, it was Biden himself who talked to her, painting a tragic portrait of a dying son, Beau’s face partially paralyzed, sitting his father down and trying to make him promise to run for president because "the White House should not revert to the Clintons and that the country would be better off with Biden values.”

===
Now the Clinton attack machine is in full gear against Biden.

Well, if 2008 is any indication and they couldn't even beat a community organizer, the Clinton attack machine is overhyped and Biden has nothing to worry about.

I’m guessing he’s thinking 3rd time’s a charm.

Come on Joe, get in the race America needs another 70 year old white Democrat!

 

[neverbend]

I read somewhere ObHama is ready to support Biden with a big IF! He wants
Biden's assurance that he'll to take as a VP Deval Patrick. Ouch!!!!

 

[JDeuce]

Come on Joe, get in the race America needs another 70 year old white Democrat!

Gotta just LOVE the diversity there! Look at all those different shades of white skin and different colors of gray hair.

What an absolute idiot brigade. The unintentional comedy will be off the charts tonight.

Joe Biden gauging politics, staffing for 2016 run


Washington (CNN) Vice President Joe Biden's associates are setting up interviews for potential staff positions on a Biden presidential campaign, a source familiar with the process tells CNN.

The interviews come as the political world waits for a decision from Biden on whether he will enter the Democratic 2016 presidential primary.
Biden met with his top political advisers Monday night -- the same group he met with at least twice last week.
...

Pennsylvania Democratic Rep. Brendan Boyle, who tweeted Monday morning that he has a source who says Biden will run for president, said he is confident his information is accurate and that an announcement is coming "very soon."
"If he didn't run, it would be pulling back from a decision that's already been made," Boyle told CNN. The congressman declined to reveal his source but described it as "very close to the Biden camp."

"Biden confirms to Obama at lunch today he's running, announces at U Delaware tomorrow."

--He's apparently going to show up at the Iowa Jefferson/Jackson dinner Sat evening as a candidate.

Here's what's interesting about Biden running. It makes things tougher on both Clinton and Obama. Obama wants to support the party nominee in the end. But for Hillary to outlast Biden she's going to have to throw little shit pellets at the job Biden has done. How is she going to do this without attacking Obama? It's a fine line to walk. And if she crosses that line and eventually wins the nomination will Obama still support her? Speaking of Obama you know he's aiming to be the next secretary general of the UN :scared:

That source the same one that told choptalk that Brees is out for the season? Ha j/k

 

[SheriffJoe]

Biden will not be running without Valerie Jarrett's approval. They have it all figured out.

"I think Joe Biden made the correct decision for him & his family. Personally, I would rather run against Hillary because her record is so bad."

-- Donald Trump

 

[neverbend]

In the sobriety of morning old joe was finally able to tell the time of day.
Even if he were able to take the nomination away from Mrs, Clinton I think
the prospect of being butchered by the likes of Donald Trump in the presidential debates
was something he preferred to avoid!

I'm guessing I was wrong. Well at least I can laugh at the draft Biden super pac and their donors for wasting their money.

That was someone I'm sure you admire, Bill Kristol.
