I wonder if he’ll have 100 reporters camped on his lawn as punishment? I’m sorry; that only happens to Plumber Joes:
ABC News’ Matthew Jaffe Reports: Sen. Joe Biden, D-Del., on Sunday guaranteed that if elected, Sen. Barack Obama., D-Ill., will be tested by an international crisis within his first six months in power and he will need supporters to stand by him as he makes tough, and possibly unpopular, decisions….
Watch, we’re gonna have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy.”…
“I can give you at least four or five scenarios from where it might originate,” Biden said to Emerald City supporters, mentioning the Middle East and Russia as possibilities. “And he’s gonna need help. And the kind of help he’s gonna need is, he’s gonna need you – not financially to help him – we’re gonna need you to use your influence, your influence within the community, to stand with him. Because it’s not gonna be apparent initially, it’s not gonna be apparent that we’re right.”
I’m glad to see Biden and I agree; possibly he read what I wrote back in June. No wonder they’ve had Joe Biden in a Cone of SIlence that seemed to be such an issue with the MSM when it was Sarah Palin; but now that she is actively talking with reporters and it is Biden who has been in hiding for weeks, the standards shift to protect the Democrat. After all, the experienced ‘Smarter Choice’ needs to be coddled. And, considering the damage that the Chosen One suffered at the hands of a plumber, don’t expect to see the Harvard grad attempting to handle questions from the unwashed masses anytime soon, either.
Personally, I think there’s a good chance the Israelis will express their level of confidence in Obama by negotiating with the Iranians on thier nuclear enrichment program directl just after the election and before Obama takes office. And that negotiation will be with bunker buster bombs.
