1. Everyone please watch this. This is the leader we need in the Senate if he can't be in the WH.

2. He's a Great Speaker
and I do believe him. I just wish it didn't have to take this much for him to "put" impeachment on the table. I do believe Bush lying the first time with Iraq was already enough!

3. yes I am becoming a fan of joe,.
He is a knowledgeable experienced guy,. and a great speaker.
However I have not seen or heard him going after the CURRENT misdeeds of the Cheney Junta near enough for me to support his run,. I am coming to support some of his actions,. perhaps I will read a bit more about him.

7. Welcome to DU
He certainly does get his point across, clearly and intelligently. I've been listening to him for quite some time and he talks straight, not in political slogans.

5. the more I see of Biden , the more impressed I am
for a long time I thought of him as a blowhard,
but I believe he has matured, and his analysis
of where we are has been low key, but spot on.

8. The media put a "tag" on him long ago
A tag that has been hard to shake off, but this is a guy who speaks from both knowledge and experience. He seems to have viable answers for just about every issue and he is fascinating to listen to.

9. I thought of him in the same way (but now looking back, I realize that was mostly
because people TOLD me he was a blowhard), then I started LISTENING to him. Impressed me to no end. Still does, every time.

10. I've seen him be a "blowhard", and at times he can be
but I still think he's probably the one in the running that's most qualifed to be President. When he would go on and on about one of *'s appointees, while saying he or she was going to be confirmed anyway, he used to piss me off, but there was always something likeable about the guy, and eloquent, too. I've always liked him, even when I wasn't "supposed" to.

I think what you see is what you get, there's really no bullshit about the guy, and most of all, he knows what he's talking about. I cannot for the life of me figure out why he's not polling better.

20. Yes, it does, and I had donated to Obama early on
but last time I had some money to spare, it went to Biden, and I think today I might make another donation to him.

17. People just blew him off as talking too much
but as intellect people shouldn't we relish someone who can put a sentence together and say something correctly. Joe gets right to the point. I would love to see Biden rise higher in the polls, and turn this wicked media on the head. That would be something to see, we do not need the media to tell us who to vote for. I am tired of the media thinking we are a bunch of imbeciles.

14. Joe's getting radicalized--literally, in the sense of getting to the roots of the problems
Ironically, it was George Romney who coined the phrase "radical moderate."

16. Joe gets it loud and clear.
I only wish people would really listen to him and as he said last week "look him over".

19. These two idiots should read "The Shock Doctrine"
so they'll know why we went to war in Iraq.

Biden doesn't think we "went to war for oil" except we want to control the oil. Yeah, that makes sense.

Also, Chris doesn't know that the second half of the report has already been released, with no media fanfare. WAKE the F* up, you lazy, stupid, venal moron.

24. Yep. It's good Biden has drawn a line in the sand on Iran, but
he is real short on details about how we get the faak out of the region.

How did he vote on renewed funding of the permanent military bases?
