I am feeling the Joe-mentum!!!

[Peacetrain]

If I could hug everyone in DU right now, I would..

Watch Joe get stronger and stronger with each debate.. I feel the earth moving folks!!

[onetexan]

1. I like that coinage -JOE-MENTUM

[Peacetrain]

10. Me too!!

[brooklynite]

15. Um, no. Definitively not

See: Joe Lieberman, 2004 Primary.

[dchill]

27. Well, at least SOME of us remember!

[LanternWaste]

35. Lieberman breathed an O2 combo too!

We better stop that as well.

Else, our little 'contributions' are best described as a petulant strain of "it does not follow."

[Beaverhausen]

2. I hear he's nearly out of money

I know my chosen candidate won't win so I've donated to Joe and will probably vote for him next Tuesday in California.

I'm just not feeling the Bern.

I love Joe!

[squirecam]

4. At this point, Amy voters should vote strategically.

In states where she could win or pass 15%, vote for her.

In states where she could not, vote for the second choice, if that person could win or get 15%.

[MoonlitKnight]

30. +1

So in California that would be Warren based upon latest poll.

[LaMouffette]

5. Thank you, Beaverhausen!

I think that we all need to be pragmatic, like you clearly are, at this moment in history. I just hope the Bernie folks can make the switch and vote for Joe if he wins the primary. I know that if Bernie wins the primary, I will definitely vote for him, even though he wasn't my first choice. Anything to "flush the turd on November 3rd"!

[Peacetrain]

6. TY!!!!

[onetexan]

17. Amy could be Joe's VEEP for all we know

[AlexSFCA]

31. which is helpful to take back midwestern states

WI and MI in particular

[calimary]

43. That's an interesting ticket.

We might have to ease America into the idea of a woman Chief Executive, after what we saw against Hillary Clinton.

Maybe the best way forward toward a woman president is to get America used to a woman on the ticket - assuming it’s a winning ticket. A woman Vice President would be superbly positioned to go for the top job.

I must admit I’m still smarting from the still-painful wounds from 2016 and what was done to Hillary. Pulling away to the proverbial “looking at it from 30-thousand feet” buzz phrase, my takeaway was that America may still be nervous about voting for a woman for the top job - even when presented with a candidate who was smart, creative, nimble-minded, fabulously experienced, and who already knew the turf AND all the players nationally and internationally.

So maybe the country has to be eased into this idea. Maybe we’ve spent WAY too long seeing the woman up on that stage - in the role of WIFE-of-candidate, instead of THE candidate. In a supporting role, not THE role.

Maybe America has an even bigger problem with gender than with race?

Just some thoughts, anyway.

[onetexan]

47. It was a combo of things in 2016, worst being the Russian/foreign meddling. But i do agree sexism

had alot to do with it. That said, I think if we had a female VP it would ease things in. IMO the country isn't yet ready for a woman POTUS, sad as it is. It is insane that the world's greatest superpower is not as progressive as Pakistan, the Phillipines, and other developed countries. We are in the 21st century for goodness sake.

[samnsara]

61. i love that combo!

[pazzyanne]

33. I just changed from Amy to Joe!

Cried when I did it because I really, really like Amy.

[Sloumeau]

36. pazzyanne, thank you for joining Team Joe Biden.

This is good news for Joe Biden!



Amy is awesome. She's really smart, awesome to listen to, and really understands how to bring Democrats and Republicans together. Lots of us Biden supporters really like Amy. If Joe weren't running, Amy would be next on my list. She's still young enough to make the White House happen. Maybe she ends up with a stepping stone to the White House, like VP or Secretary of State?

Anyway, thanks again. Once we get Trump out, all things are possible.

[pazzyanne]

54. Thank you, Sloumeau!

I've actually been in the Joe Biden camp for years. Worked for him on two of his former presidential campaigns. It is just that I simply love Amy and her work for Minnesota.

[tavernier]

55. There is no crying in politics!

Thanks!

[pazzyanne]

56. Crying because I love Amy, but I love Joe, too! nt

[onetexan]

46. Thank u for donating to Joe's campaign. Yes he needs help. A win in SC will really boost it i think.

[Peacetrain]

8. He is without a doubt the most qualified to do the job

[emmaverybo]

38. Not one other candidate has the qualifications, experience, job specific knowledge and FP cred to

handle the domestic and global crisis Trump leaves us in in his wake. No brainer.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

7. Lieberman killed that phrase

[Peacetrain]

9. I still like it!!

[DemocratSinceBirth]

13. It's hard to like anything associated with Joe Lieberman

[PatSeg]

18. You too?

I still remember all the groans when Lieberman said it and that perception never went away, even though it does apply today to our Joe.

[honest.abe]

11. Me too. Saturday is going to be a big day for Joe and his campaign.

[Peacetrain]

12. Its going to be a big day for sure!!!

[Walleye]

14. Got his Mo-Joe workin'

[Peacetrain]

16. Love that!!!

[PatSeg]

19. There are so many good ones for Joe

I love that!

[PatSeg]

20. I've been a big Biden supporter

for many years and I have to say, I wasn't sure if running for president this time was a good idea. I really wanted him to run 2016. Our field of candidates was so limited, I think he could have done very well.

This time, I was afraid that his time had passed and he might be too late, but it didn't take long for me to get enthused about him as a candidate again. He definitely is getting stronger each day and now we're seeing more of the old Joe and he looks more presidential than ever.

[Peacetrain]

22. The first debate, you could tell he was rusty..

but he is just getting stronger and stronger with each one... he is hitting his stride.. and just in time!!!

[PatSeg]

24. Yes he was rusty

and I could tell it was difficult for him. For so many years, he was always in the public eye and communicating was second nature for him. Anyone who has been away from the public eye is bound to be a bit wobbly for awhile. I think all the enthusiasm about last night will energize him and give him renewed confidence.

Also, I have to say that after Beau's death, there was a certain undeniable sadness there that I hadn't seen before. That probably will never go away.

[redstatebluegirl]

21. I sure hope so!!!

I think Super Tuesday is going to be very different than some candidates and MSM think. After Super Tuesday, we need to be down to two candidates. Once that happens you will see that BS does not have as much support as he thinks he does. Unless the Republicans and the Russians, one and the same, do something shady to the machines.

[Peacetrain]

23. I hope it coalesces very quickly also.. My guess is that Steyer may drop out after SC

[redstatebluegirl]

25. I think so too.

We need Bloomberg to drop out.

[mainstreetonce]

26. We need Steyer and Bloomberg to support Joe

With money!

[FloridaBlues]

52. Have to agree things could change and not too late

Like the pundits predict.

[TomJulie]

28. Joe Has No Chance...NONE!!

Bernie, all the way.

[Sloumeau]

37. You keep telling yourself whatever you need to. :) nt

[grantcart]

41. As the car goes off the cliff

Delusional devotees are in rapture because they are winning at 30% even though 4 years ago Sanders had 44%.

[berksdem]

45. LOL... okay then.

[musicman65]

29. We need to

stay afloat now to carry this to the chair in the white house,a difficult road no doubt,but must carry on for all our sake's

[hamsterjill]

32. Me, too.

Joe was most effective last night. I liked it when he got tough. That's what is going to be needed against Trump...and Trump and Putin both know that.

[gibraltar72]

34. I see Joe

resignation. But that's just me.

[muntrv]

39. Here, here.

[capechacon]

40. New Clemson Univ. Palmetto poll!!!

Biden now by seventeen (17) in So Carolina!! see:

http://newsstand.clemson.edu/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/2020-Palmetto-Poll-Results.pdf

Sanders a distant 3rd.

Now, if Joe can just sustain that energy he showed last night.....

[TexasTowelie]

48. Wow, Bernie isn't viable according to that poll.

That will give Biden the opportunity to close and overtake the delegate margin between them.

[grantcart]

42. Hope you ate right

[berksdem]

44. I am with Joe!

just switched my preference... go Joe!

[peggysue2]

49. Hugs right back at you, peacetrain

Looking for a good day on Saturday, a day to clap and cheer!

And don't forget the drums!

[Peacetrain]

50. Hot dog Peggy.. Love the drums.. I hope he wins the

nod.. and at the convention, before they announce Joe Biden .. that four or five drum corps come out to perform and bring the house down

[Pachamama]

51. Feeling it to and am very excited

Just gave him another donation and filled out my CA ballot and am taking it to the Office of Registar and getting it in.



Spoke to several people here in CA who were either undecided or on edge about who to choose and each one said after last nights debate, watching Sanders and seeing what is happening in our country, that there is no question he is the one to go with and the only one who can beat Trump.

Everyone loved his comment about nominating a black woman for the Supreme Court. And all of them are hoping its either a Woman as running mate or black running mate, preferably a black woman.

[tavernier]

57. Biden/Harris

[Pachamama]

62. My dream ticket....

[empedocles]

53. JB is our best hope, and traitortrump's worst fear.

[budkin]

59. Don't call it Joe-mentum... it brings up the specter of Lieberman

Maybe "Bidenergy?"

[samnsara]

60. i should have watched the debates..
