2. I'm pretty sure he is (of the candidates, that is) |
|
it didn't start exactly at 7:30, and then C-Span was having some technical difficulties, but then Sen. Harkin spoke, and now Dodd is up.

It was here. I turned it off. Now I'm hearing Dodd again.

She gets rousing applause. I'm curious to hear the applause Mr. Microphone, aka Biden gets.

10. John Edwards is very pro-union. |
|
No one speaks on behalf of the workers right to organize like he does. He hit it out of the park tonight.
I will proudly caucus for him again in January.

12. Now Mr. Microphone is up |
|
aka Joe Biden. He got lukewarm applause as he should have. Yak yak yak. This guy needs to quit the race and concentrate on being a Senator from Delaware and ending the Iraq war, which he ain't doing now. Now some may ask, why aren't I as an Iowan and a Democrat not at this dinner? Well, I have a couple of reasons. First and foremost is because I have a job which requires me to work on Saturdays. That's ok, someone needs to. Secondly, I haven't got the money. Enough of that. Mr. Microphone just said, "This war must end". I agree. So why didn't he vote to end the fucking war?
