OH-Eight: Biden is up, up, and away!

[PatSeg]

BIDEN: Per NBC/NJ’s Carrie Dann, Biden becomes the last of the six Democratic campaigns playing in Iowa to go up on TV in the state. In the ad, Biden speaks directly into the camera and says, "Being president isn't the same thing as running for president. When this campaign is over, political slogans like 'Experience' and 'Change' will mean absolutely nothing. The next president has to act.” He then touts the bipartisan approval in the Senate of his Iraq plan and that he spoke with the Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf before Bush did after Musharraf declared emergency rule earlier this year. “You don’t have to guess what I’ll do as president,” Biden says to close the ad. “Just look at what I’ve done.”

A former republican and very anti-Biden! Now he has a Biden bumper sticker on his car.

picks up on the hint.

11. Before he came over yesterday

I was thinking that "All I want of Christmas if for Biden to win the nomination"!!!

6. It will be!

"I promise you, I promise you" it will be!

7. That is exactly why I switched my support to Biden

I hope the message hits others like it's hit me. Seems right on target - at least for what I want in the next President.

15. Biden is a smart man who has surrounded himself w/some smart people.

The new ad highlights one of Sen. Biden's biggest selling points: he's the only Democrat running whose election to the presidency wouldn't be a wait-and-see gamble. He's the one with experience at a time when we need someone with experience. Great ad. Great candidate.

16. Yes, he has.

[PatSeg]

18. I think the ad is very effective to serious voters

It invites them to study him more and shows him as a serious candidate.
