[Clio the Leo]

1. And here's my prediction...

Number of Biden "pop" references: 2

Number of Biden "train" references: 1

Number of time Biden says "that's not hyperbole, friends, that's the truth!": 1

Number of time Obama says "Slurpee": 1

Number of witch references: 5

:)

[jenmito]

2. One thing you left out that Biden always says:

"And I mean that LITERALLY-not figuratively." And he's always wrong-he DOES mean what he says figuratively. But that's just Joe. He's very "enthusiastic." :)

[Clio the Leo]

10. lol that man is AWESOME! nt

[Clio the Leo]

21. "I mean that literally!" #1 nt

[jenmito]

24. Yup! n/t

[gateley]

39. And... "I'm not being facetious, this is not hyperbole." I had that as a sig line

for a while when Biden was still in the race. :7

[young but wise]

3. You are funny. Thanks for this.

[Clio the Leo]

29. "my dad used to say" #1 nt

[FBaggins]

4. Why are they campaigning in a state that we've got locked up? n/t

[jenmito]

7. It's Biden's seat. They want to get some credit for Coons' coming victory. n/t

[FBaggins]

17. Lol... the Tea Party get's credit for Coon's victory.

Which may very well be why they're there. To highlight the kinds of candidates that republicans are running in some of these races. Build the meme for after the election that the republican party is tearing down the middle.

It could be particularly effective if we only hold the senate by one vote.

[FrenchieCat]

5. Will the Republican Corporate Media show this? or do we have to go to the Internet as usual?

:shrug:

[jenmito]

8. Internet only. Not even C-Span is showing it. n/t

[Clio the Leo]

11. Shameful. nt

[jenmito]

14. Yup-but not surprising. n/t

[FrenchieCat]

13. Predictable!

[jenmito]

16. I know. I saw your thread which described the way it is PERFECTLY...

and I was the second person to comment on your thread.

[gateley]

46. Wow, Frenchie -- that was awesome!! nt

[gateley]

44. I know. Pisses me off. They started it on MSNBC but only for a few moments. nt

[jenmito]

50. Yup-just as Frenchie described! n/t

[bardgal]

63. The media Obama blackout seems to be

complete if not even CSPAN is showing it.

That is truly frightening.

[LynneSin]

6. We heard the motorcade go by about an hour ago

I work right by the train station. I had a chance for a ticket but I had too much on my plate for work today.

[Clio the Leo]

12. I'm jealous! nt

[LynneSin]

19. What hearing a motorcade go by. No biggie

I had to deal with it after the election almost everyday. They were holding a senate session and technically Joe was still a senator. And he still took Amtrak to and from work. So at least 2-3 times a week I'd leave work about the same time he was coming home and they'd block off our garage for 15 minutes while his motorcade passed by.

I can live without it.

[Clio the Leo]

26. I got stopped in traffic once while we waited for Cheney to pass...

.... living in a blue state must be nice.

[gateley]

45. Sure, it's meh to you, after all how many people have had Joe Biden standing on their front porch??

[Clio the Leo]

9. Coons up now. nt

[Clio the Leo]

15. It will be fun to see who gets bigger applause, Biden or the President. nt

[Clio the Leo]

33. answer: The President. ;-) nt

[Clio the Leo]

18. Coons with very kind words about FLOTUS....

.... recalling hearing her speak in DE in 2008. Says how inspiring she was.

(Or to put it another way ...... SUCK IT PALIN!!!!)

[Clio the Leo]

20. lol Biden: "No one missed me as Sen. once you got Ted Kauffman!"

talking about his interim replacement.

[monmouth]

22. Joey is a rock star! I really like Chris Coons, beautiful speaker, calm

cool and collected. Great choice.

[Clio the Leo]

23. Biden "Without Plouffe and Pfifer Obama would have had a hard time winning!"

Talking about Delewareans David Plouffe and Communications director Dan Pfiffer. (I know I'm spelling that wrong, sorry)

[Clio the Leo]

25. BIden "When I die, Deleware will be written on my heart."

he stole that line from someone, but I love it.

[Clio the Leo]

27. Biden "I thought the President needed me like another hole in his head."

.... lol perhaps not the BEST metaphor to use about a sitting President. :)

[Clio the Leo]

28. says "my friend is all spine and all heart." nt

[Clio the Leo]

30. "When you get knocked down, GET UP!"

that NEVER gets old!!! :bounce:

[Clio the Leo]

31. Huge applause when Biden mentions end of IQ war. nt

[Clio the Leo]

32. Awww, Biden kind of nuzzled the President, that will be a cute pic. nt

[Clio the Leo]

34. Obama: "Single best decision I've made is selecting Joe Biden as my VP"

.... "and I mean that!"

and then hugs him.

[Clio the Leo]

35. "I dont want anyone taking anything for granted." nt

[gateley]

36. Just coming here to post this! Shoulda known!

:hi:

Ha! I'd love for them to have taken the train, but it probably would have only been Joe, O, and the SS!

[Clio the Leo]

37. lol nt

[Clio the Leo]

38. "GOP was hoping people would forget they were the ones who created the mess."

Well, Alvin Greene hasn't forgotten! lol

[Clio the Leo]

40. lol, "it was not as if they went off into the desert and meditated on it"

RANDOM JESUS reference!!! lol LOVE IT!!!!

[Clio the Leo]

41. DE has one of the best flags....

..... love the little men on it.

[Clio the Leo]

42. "I bring the past up not because I want to re-litigate it, but because I dont want to RELIVE it."

[Clio the Leo]

43. There he goes quoting the Bible again....

... that darned crazy Muslin!!!

("I AM my brother's keeper, I AM my sisters keeper!")

crowd gets a 2004 flashback and rises to their feet.

[jenmito]

47. Isn't that exactly what a secret Muslim WOULD do?

:sarcasm:

[Clio the Leo]

48. Only if they were Kenyan! nt

[Clio the Leo]

49. Slurpee reference coming up! nt

[Clio the Leo]

51. "Sip .... sip ..... sippin' on a slurPAY!"

..... wish auto tune would do a Three-5 mafia tribute with that.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tgoxEfOlYb0

[gateley]

57. Well now THAT's going to going through my head all day! nt

[Clio the Leo]

61. lol! good! Now I'm not alone!

Because it's been going on in MY Head ever since he first said "slurpee."

[Clio the Leo]

52. "Our journey was NOT about putting a President in the White House...."

"It was about EVERY day after that!"

new line I believe

[gateley]

53. I've said it before and I'll say it again -- Obama could do stand-up. He's a natural!

Impeccable timing and flawless expressions! :rofl:

[jenmito]

56. He has PERFECT timing! I LOVE how he just looks out at the audience

with a straight face and then does his smile and little laugh thing. Usually, "Heh." :D

[Clio the Leo]

62. He reminds me of Newhart....

.... with those dry pauses ... even a stutter every now and then.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SuOaGqnv87w

and compare...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T0GwZFAV1Lw

I'd be interested to know if he was fan.

[gateley]

65. Good comparison! Too funny! nt

[gateley]

54. Hi, Bob! We always rest a little easier when you're on the scene! nt

[gateley]

55. You forgot to predict Biden's points! Remember Hillary's clap clap point point?

Biden's giving her a run for her money! :7

[jenmito]

58. I love his secret service guys...

always so serious in keeping our Prez safe.

[gateley]

59. Somebody once posted that "Bob" is the one (forget the actual term) whose job

it is to put himself between POTUS and an attacker, whereas the others mostly keep scanning the crowd, trying to avoid any dangerous person actually getting that close. :scared: Crazy way to make a living.

[jenmito]

60. "Bob" must stand for

"Barack Obama's Bodyguard." So when you mentioned "Bob" in your post above you meant HIM. I agree with you.

[Clio the Leo]

64. ha! Clever!

"Bob" is my standard name for all generic looking white men (Marsha Warfield who played "Roz" on Night Court had a routine where she said that all white men were named Bob.) .... I just thought he looked like a Bob.

But I like your idea better! lol

Here's a rarely seen shot of "Bob" aka Joe Clancy and Reggie leaving the White House

http://www3.pictures.zimbio.com/gi/President+Obama+Departs+White+House+Enroute+ZZZ2xDF-aDIl.jpg

[jenmito]

66. Oh...

I never watched Night Court. And wouldn't you know-I have a white neighbor named Bob?! :rofl:

[Clio the Leo]

67. I'm tellin' ya! There all over the place! lol nt
