Bill And Hillary To Campaign With Biden In Pennsylvania
For the first time, both Clintons will campaign together for the Obama-Biden ticket.
Hillary and Bill will be campaigning alongside Joe Biden this Sunday at an event in Scranton, Pennsylvania, according to Obama Pennsylvania spokesperson Sean Smith.
Polls have been showing Obama-Biden starting to pull away in the Pennsylvania -- and that's before any appearance by the Clintons in the state.
The Clintons will hammer away at economic themes in their speeches at the Sunday rally, and they are likely to play up the roots in the Scranton area that both Hillary and Biden share. Further details will be announced later in the week.

I think they should leave Bill at home. People often vote on character, and Bill consistently calls McCain a great man and Obama he doesn't know. He talks about Obama being right on the issues. But he does not say anything about Obama as a person.

I no longer just want BHO to win or to even win handily. . .I want him to annihilate and humiliate McMoron and his cocktail waitresss sidekick.

I want to see McScum literally, completely destroyed. He and those nutjobs deserve it after their shamelessly un-American campaign.

I would very much like that, too, just to show future candidates that lying doesn't pay and that fomenting hatred and, potentially, violence against your opponent is not only morally but politically suicidal.
On the other hand, I would gladly accept a victory of any size.

Oh, my god -- is that real? It resembles a parody set-up, but Santorum looks real (or as close to real as he ever does).

Absolutely real. As long as I live, I'll never forget that picture.

A thing of beauty: Rabid pitbull crushed and shamed.
Next up: Palin sneaking back to Alaska, to face her numerous investigations. I think her national failure and scruitny will destroy her career back in AK.

Esp since Obama seems to be winning this thing- Bill & Hill are going to be unequivocal. The burden is fully upon them to be on board- they sure will want to be current and relevant, esp Bill.

My guess is that this is a harmless place to use Bill Clinton (in other words he doesn't cost them votes.) This gets the "where is Bill Clinton?" question off the table.
Hillary could help them in FL though, possibly OH.

It also assures people that Bill's not scouring the land for interns at the moment.*

That should terminate any delusional plan McCain had about PA. Soon, he will be moving his PA staff to GA.

Here, let me concisely summarize the next 100 comments so we can avoid the waste of space:
* Yeah right, I'll believe it when I see it.
* I can't imagine why they'd bother campaigning for the guy who slandered them, dragging their name through the mud all primary long.
* Haha, I guess Hillary wanted to experience being part of a winning campaign for once.
* Thank god, Obama needs all the help he can get reaching out to the nonelite, normal people he thinks are too busy clinging to their guns and god to vote.
...and so on.

Either the internal polling says Pa is a closer race or the Obama Campaign is making one last push to force McCain out of the State.
Otherwise one might figure that splitting up the three to cover three swing states might be the better tactic.

I'm hoping this is the case. You know now McScum/Barbie are vomiting hatred, and there may be quite a few Obama-leaning voters in rural PA (an "Alabama" lol) that might feel swayed. Three established democrats' appearance there can preempt it and reassure rural PA voters. Just my guess.

I'm delighted to have both Bill and Hillary out there with Biden - it's going to be a good thing for Obama.
Hillary has been just magnificent - she's campaigned hard for Obama. Bill has been up and down -(how very Bill. Hahaha) but when he's on, god nobody is better and he and Hillary and Biden together - I wish I could be there.
October 7, 2008 5:50 PM | Reply | Permalink
One can say what they will about the frosty relationship between Bill and Barack, but Bill seems to really like Biden. So having him stump with Biden is probably the smart move.
Hillary needs to be there to babysit and keep the boys on message. I could imagine Bill and Joe could easily get lost on a tangent when together.

Scranton and Wilkes-Barre are the areas where Obama did the poorest during the primaries. I imagine they just want to get the numbers up there.

Where are the other surrogates - such as Richardson, Gore?
Will mccain even be able to show his face in the Senate again - or will he just concede the election AND resign from the Senate immediately - I am hoping for an Obama / Biden landslide. I'm also thinking mccain is going to erupt tonight. After the last few days of instability and hatred he's not going to be able to get himself in control...ever again.

Gore doesn't want to be seen as political anymore and Richardson is busy governing. You don't see Kaine or Sebelius stumping anymore either. It's Obama, Biden, the wives, the Clintons or campaign operatives these days.

And someone said Richardson was in Milwaukee stumping a few days ago. But if all he does is deliver NM, that's cool. Maybe help out in CO.

Stop calling Sarah Palin a waitress. I have know a lot of hard working wonderful waitresses. Why demean them.
You can do better than that.
Come up with names for Palin that do not demean other working class women.
How about: The BarbieCuda.
I am sure that you can think of ones much better than this one, off of the top of my head.

I keep calling her Barbie or Falin.

Barbiecuda puts a spin on her spin. It's good.
Pretty soon she'll be Sarah Wailin' when we get to send her tacky azz back "UP...to Alaska".
She'll have to work that money-maker overtime to save her precious career. Maybe she and Stevens will have some common experience to share in a few years. She could write a book. "Hard Time", by Sarah Palin, with a forward by Karl Rove or Bill O'Lielly (the hardcore special "inside" edition).

Can anyone tell me why Hillary has not been out pounding on Palin's horrid appeals to skinhead, xenophobic America?
It would take just one big Hillary speech, in which she slammed Palin, to knock that twitchy cocktail waitress on her ass.

Get that lead way up in PA, then send Bill + Hill to camp out in FL while Barack + Joe casually tour around CO, MO, IN, OH. The election will be o-v-a-h.

Bill might be good in MO. Don't know the state, but his style would seem to work well.
October 7, 2008 6:54 PM | Reply | Permalink
I don't think Bill would be too great in MO - It seems to me it's more of a "values" state - Lots of religion. Perhaps some of the Republicans - Lilibet Hagel, Susan Eisenhower, and of course the Dems have their own McCaskill. Hillary would do OK there however. Maybe Caroline Kennedy, but with Ted so sick I don't know how much time she can commit. Bush won MO by 7% in 2004. What about some of the retired generals who are supporting Obama? And get Jill and Joe there of course. That should do it.
