13. I don't believe there was EVER in American history, such a Prez/VP team that was so compatible
Traditionally, such choices are made to "balance the ticket". That frequently resulted in either "empty suit" VPs, or all but openly hostile ones. But these two guys REALLY look to the best of pals! One can easily imagine Joe effortlessly completing a sentence of Obama's.

I FEEL BETTER ABOUT THE FUTURE OF THIS NATION (AND THE REST OF THE WORLD), EACH PASSING DAY! Bring on Beauty and the Beast!

30. Gore and Clinton were a pretty dynamic duo
that was a magical time. It's easy to forget, but I wish we could get back to the idea that talent and hardwork is rewarded even in government.

Having a boss like Barack is just giving him the focus he needs to realize his potential as an elder statesman.

24. The majority of folks that run for office do so with all good intentions
Edited on Tue Sep-02-08 08:12 AM by merh
Sure, there are those that want just the power and money that can go with the job if you "play things" right, but most have dreams of doing the right thing, of doing what they can do to make the nation better and to help people.

Biden was one of these elected officials, but over the years it has become harder and harder to do for the people, to do what is needed to help citizens and the nation. I would imagine it has become tiring and frustrating to hold office these days, as a dem when there was no dem majority and now with the thin majority we have now.

But Obama has given hope and made folks, like Biden and Kennedy, believe that they can make a difference again, that they can change things for the better and help folks. You can see it in their eyes and in the eyes of their loved ones, how they sparkle with the dream, how their hearts seem lighter and they have a new enthusian.

This "hope" that Obama has restored is not some mystic, preacher thing, not some cult leader to his followers. It is a man opening up doors, asking others to help him open up the doors, lift the windows to let the air in and reminding others how damned important they are to the process. "We are the change we've been looking for" is not some corny chant, some kooky political phrase, it is a truism and Obama has helped many realize the simple truism. He taps into the best of us and in so doing, he helps us restore ourselves and we can restore our nation.

The images could well be captioned "Enthusian - it's contagious"

25. Funny how McCain looks positively ancient compared to Biden
They are only about 6 years apart but McCain comes off as a dodering grumpy old man and Biden comes off as very youthful.

But hes giving it all he has, Biden hit the ground running, even though Biden has a different, a very different style than Barack.

43. Obama is so magna-cum-laude smart, deliberative. Joe seems like a real upper to what is serious...
Edited on Tue Sep-02-08 05:34 PM by MarjorieG
and can be tedious. Imagine to be solo, and have to be up, the focus, all the time.

I'm just loving this, and I think the media who has always liked and respected Joe, and Clinton, saw our well-run convention and decided they were more comfortable and resigned to the inevitability of this. Or it would be too difficult to hold back the tide now. Even the POW meme has suffered.

How much could the GOP really try to start over now?

44. I love these pictures!
They are a wonderful team. It's good to see them both laughing, seeming to really be having a good time, and enjoying the experience! It has to help their campaign, by keeping some of the stress levels down.

Think about the times you've worked with a group. If there's someone on the team with a good sense of humor, it keeps the group level, and I think more productive.
