Okay. I'm convinced.
I will be caucusing for Joe Biden. This is the first time I have EVER decided on a candidate without hearing them speak first hand, and it's the first time I've made my mind up this far in advance. It's been a struggle, but I'm planting myself in the Biden camp.

3. I hope so...
It feels good to finally have made a decision, because now I can help his campaign. Not being settled on a candidate is a helpless feeling.

6. Is that guy great or what! Saw him Sunday on ABC
He presented himself so well, no sound bites but straight to his major points. Then got an e-mail from Biden's people with a endorsement from a paper there where they stated why they had chosen him. Just plain inspirational and full of positives. Biden has an overall grasp of what needs to be done in this critical time and that includes wire tapping/evesdropping.

I truly believe he is an honest and smart person more than capable of leading this country out of the quagmire it is in!!

7. You're in good company!
This is a great group of people which I consider a reflection on the candidate. That fact that your support has been well-thought out makes it more credible to me. I've noticed a lot of people attach to a candidate too quickly without really giving it much thought or scrutiny.

8. Welcome to our newest Bidenite!!
Just a warning - you start out like Biden and then you start really paying attention to him, and then you like him even more. Then he goes on This Week with George Steph. and you wonder how anyone can endorse any candidate other than Joe.

Glad to have you here.
