I just have to ask this, because seeing what is going on now, with Obama's numbers falling, among other things, and Joe Biden not attracting much media attention, how long do you think it will be before Obama realizes he made a crucial mistake in choosing Joe Biden to be his VP? My guess is he will dump Biden and pick up Hillary to make this race swing in his favor. Anyone else think that?
Pushing a fund-raiser later this month, a finance staff member sent a sharply worded note last week to Illinois members of its national finance committee, calling their recent efforts “extremely anemic.”
At a convention-week meeting in Denver of the campaign’s top fund-raisers, buttons with the image of a money tree were distributed to those who had already contributed the maximum $2,300 to the general election, a subtle reminder to those who had failed to ante up.
The signs of concern have become evident in recent weeks as early fund-raising totals have suggested that Mr. Obama’s decision to bypass public financing may not necessarily afford him the commanding financing advantage over Senator John McCain that many had originally predicted.

I don't think He can legally do that. He'd love to, but I think he's stuck with Biden.

I'm sure as hell Obama wants to dump Biden and we have Aurelius or Shot's or both idk talking about McCain thinking about dumping Palin I don't know how much bong water they drank but it sure must of been alot. As for Biden instead of a Empty suit like Obama is hes a failed suit and Obama already shuned out the women in his party by not putting Hillary on the ticket.

He won't do it now, but there were a few days of shakiness with her. McCain wouldn't have a campaign if it wasn't for her now.

ABC News' Matthew Jaffe reports (http://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalradar/2008/09/biden-hillary-a.html): Sen. Barack Obama's, D-Ill., vice presidential nominee, Sen. Joe Biden, D-Del., Wednesday said that Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y., might have been a better pick for the position than him.
At a rally in Nashua, N.H., a man in the audience told Biden how glad he was that Obama picked him over Hillary, "not because she's a woman, but because, look at the things she did in the past."
"Make no mistake about this," Biden responded. "Hillary Clinton is as qualified or more qualified than I am to be vice president of the United States of America. Let’s get that straight. She’s a truly close personal friend, she is qualified to be president of the United States of America, she’s easily qualified to be vice president of the United States of America, and quite frankly, it might have been a better pick than me. But she’s first rate, I mean that sincerely, she’s first rate, so let’s get that straight."
Presidential timber my ass... These guys are just a couple of whiners. They're folding like cheap cardboard.

Meanwhile, in the real world......There were no days of Shakiness. The GOP I was watching was enthused, fired up and backing Palin all the way, and it's too, too late to dump Biden. Obama is now fighting a handicap match. He's finished.
