TOM KLUDT 2:50 PM EDT, TUESDAY AUGUST 21, 2012

The Obama campaign made it official on Tuesday: Vice President Joe Biden will host a campaign rally in Tampa, Fla on Monday. Additional details will be announced later.

Biden's appearance is notable in that it will be held in the same city and at the same time as the Republican National Convention, which kicks off on Monday.

8. Team Obama is just fucking w/ them now

[corkhead]

10. That seems to set a new precedent in taunting

going to the city of the opponent's convention. Don't be surprised to see the same sort of reciprocal thing in Charlotte. In fact, it wouldn't surprise me if they had intelligence that something like this was going to happen in Charlotte anyway, so they decided to beat them to the punch.

11. Yeah, romney has already set the precedent

in Taunting so I'm sure the willards will whine about this..but so what.

Kill 'em FACTS, VP Joe!

[ChazII]

12. The only thing we have to fear

is the headach form the mispelled signs - should the rethugs come to the Democratic Convention.

(Words misspelled on purpose.)

[onehandle]

13. Kick some ass, Mr. Vice President. nt

[nanabugg]

14. Hope the sun shines on Joe's event and then after...it rains like hell!! This will be a sign to

the Robertson followers.

15. Remember not long ago when the Romney bus was trolling Obama's campaign blowing its horn? n/t

16. UPDATE: Reince Priebus Responds

Vice President Joe Biden is scheduled to speak at several campaign events next week in Tampa, during the first two days of the Republican National Convention. Yesterday RNC Chairman Reince Priebus reacted to the scheduling by saying that sometimes parties “play with each other’s conventions,” and suggested that whatever the Democrats might do, “we can do ten times over to them.”

The Obama campaign confirmed earlier this week that Biden will be campaigning in Tampa for two days. Priebus responded by suggesting to BuzzFeed that the GOP may respond in kind to whatever the Democrats have planned.

“I think it’s pretty common among parties to play with each other’s conventions, and we’ll have a pretty big presence in Charlotte as well,” Priebus said. “The nice thing about going first is that whatever they do to us, we can do ten times over to them.”

Does that mean that Romney may counter-program the Democratic convention in Charlotte next month? Priebus replied “You never know where we are going to be.”

“I’m a big believer in: if they punch us, we put on the brass knuckles and punch back,” he added.

Priebus sounds like an angry and violent man.
