OK, after tonight I'm ALL IN with Joe!!!!

To that, let me add.....

That if we took all of the other Democratic candidates - present and past - and shook them up in a bottle and made them Joe's VP, we'd have a damned dynamite ticket!!

Amy had been my preferred candidate but to be perfectly honest, I chose her because she had been on Rachel's show many times in the past and I was most famiiar with her.

But after tonight, OMG,!!!

Joe's past experience really glowed.

He was forceful, outspoken, but most of all....

Polite in stopping when his time was up.

This might not mean too much to those who want a forceful Nominee.

But waiting your turn and playing by the rules means a LOT to me.

And like Joe, I went to Catholic schools.

I hated the discipline while there, but NOW I realize its worth.

At the age of 67 I'm finally pulling my head out of my arse.

And acknowledging the education my parents gifted me with.

GO JOE!!!!!

There's some old animus there regarding banking legislation.

Rather than pulling our current Dem senators out when we need them desperately, I'd rather see Biden choose someone like a past or present woman governor. I also think its a bad idea to select someone who already dropped out of the race.

He even charmed the moderator. That type of thing translates to debate watchers.

For some reason so many candidates don't realize they look bad when they desperately try to squeeze in 15 more meaningless canned seconds. I remember in my Las Vegas living room during debate watching parties my audience would invariably turn against the candidate who attempted to hog the stage.

Something like this:

Joe: 40%
Sanders: 20%
Warren: 10%
Styer: 10%

If anything like that happens the narrative will be Joe is back!.. the Comeback Kid!.. Joe got his Mojo back! .. etc.

Which should propel him to a big Super Tuesday.

I just wanted to make a quick comment on Pete's wit and spot-on situation analysis. When he mentioned 50's/trump and 60's/bernie, I burst out laughing and actually applauded him.

After Joe gets into the White House I sure hope he finds a position for Pete.
