Children of our nation
About the Author
Who says children can't be democrats? We have our opinions too. Why can't they be heard? Why do we have to live in darkness until we are old enough to vote?
Joe Biden.
Biden beat Edwards in the finals by a vote of 5-4.
Biden seems to be the one that is doing the best among people. He won this tournament, He was named the most Likely to be VP by Chris Mathews this week, he finished a close second to Clark in the CQ VP Madness and is the front runner in the MSNBC Veepstakes.
although I voted for Edwards I think he would help the ticket. He brings Foreign Policy experience, which people think Obama is Lacking. he helps bring liberals and Moderates together.
I think geographically he helps in Virginia, Ohio, Indiana, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin and Colorado.
Biden is a very good choice.

I have been looking at the Obaba leaked short list and have thrown in a few names that people suspect are on there but weren't leaked. there are only 10 people who could possibly be picked. 3 on the short list have said they won't take it (Webb, Strickland and Clinton). A Mark Warner pick would take him out of an important senate battle which could help democrats get to 60. there are a lot of names on there (E.G. Chris Dodd, Bill Nelson, Jack Reed and Evan Bahy) who are in the senate in states that have Republican Governors. so if Obama wins and the democrats get to 60 the Republican governor would get to pick the replacement, therefor the GOP could filibuster. I took off Kaine and Jones because they aren't well known enough, and John Kerry because simply it won't be john Kerry. Here are the 10 possible picks:
On the Confirmed Shortlist:
John Edwards
Tom Daschel
Joe Biden
Kathleen Sabillius
Sam Nunn
on the "widely suspected" Short list:
Bill Richardson
Wes Clark
Bob Graham
Wild Cards:
Chuck Haggle
Russ Fiengold

Note: I write this fully aware that I will be attacked for it, but people who know me know that I never shrink from the right fight.
I visited the PUMA website today to answer a few question I have about it. I found, from what I saw, that PUMA is an attempt to desolate every thing that common sense and the Democratic Party, party of Robert Kennedy stands for. these are not normal Clinton Supporters, normal Clinton supporters are voting for Obama or at least considering it. This is a forum to proudly display ignorance, Racism and common disregard for people in need. These People are not Democrats, they are therocrats. I personally feel that the PUMA party could be more harmful to America and Democracy than the Republican Party.
this goes against the Ideals of Democracy in every sense of the word. People are voting against their own interests and Ideals to satisfy Ignorant, Racist and/or twisted theological needs. These are the same people who say Obama is associated with Islam. These are people who will say anything to satisfy their twisted needs. These are people who would gladly let the constitutional crises of the Bush Admin. go on just because they wanted Hillary more, or they can not find it with in themselves to vote for a black man. These are not real Democrats. I condemn this twisted and/or hateful organization and I hope you will join me.

John Zogby, Whom I have always considered the best pollster in America, has just released some new numbers. His electoral count is Obama 273 McCain 160 with 105 to close to call. of the 32 states he polled McCain only has a 10+ point lead in one state: Alabama. Obama has a 10 point lead in every Kerry State Except New Hampshire (3 Points) as well as in New Mexico. These numbers should be taken with a grain of salt, but also may be the most accurate polling of the election so far. Here is the link If you like Numbers your going to want to see this.
Register to vote, and send Voltage to play at the Democratic National Convention. We have songs that are perfect for the event already written, and I am already the number one democrat at the DNC.
Hillary Clinton LOST FAIR AND SQUARE. BARACK OBAMA IS THE NOMINEE, GET OVER IT. I know it sucks to have your candidate loose but it's not the end of the world. and for all of you that say Obama can't win in November, Most of you are the same People that said Hillary had the Nomination 16 Months ago. I have not yet looked at a single piece of statistical data that says Obama is not electable. for all of you who say he is "Flip flopping" on every Issue it is not true. He's only moved on Two Issues: FISA (And even there he hasn't moved as much as people say) and The Death Penalty. He did not Flip Flop on Campaign finance, that's a load of bull and you Know it, And Had Hillary been the Nominee she would have Moved too.
I'm sorry if this sounds blunt and Arrogant but I'm Sick of people who Keep feeding me this B.S.
