The deed is done! Yes, Barack Obama has finally quenched all of our thirsts by announcing his running mate... Senator Joseph Biden to be his Vice President. Even though I sent in my text to be one of the first to know the big news, which I might add had me a lil disappointed, because I had to find out via Larry King, the text didn't even go out until 3:52 am. The Democratic candidate broke the news on his Web site overnight, followed by text messages sent to thousands of campaign supporters who had signed up to receive the news directly. *Side note Barack... you gotta plan that a little better, because I'm sure I wasn't the only one to be disappointed by not being "the first" to know. Keep your word dude!
The text read, "Barack has chosen Senator Joe Biden to be our VP nominee. Watch the first Obama-Biden rally live at 3pm ET on www.BarackObama.com. Spread the word!"
On his Web site, Obama says, "Joe Biden brings extensive foreign policy experience, an impressive record of collaborating across party lines, and a direct approach to getting the job done. We have our team, but we also have our work cut out for us."
Senator and Republican candidate John McCain said in a statement, "There has been no harsher critic of Barack Obama's lack of experience than Joe Biden. Biden has denounced Barack Obama's poor foreign policy judgment and has strongly argued in his own words what Americans are quickly realizing -- that Barack Obama is not ready to be President."
Well McCain, if Joe Biden really had issues with Barack and his policies, who better to be his candidate. Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer right?
