Biden Followup


February 1st, 2007

ElectionGeek got a trackback at World and Global Politics Blog for yesterdays recap of Senator Joe Biden’s comments about Barack Obama. ["I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy,"] So thank you for that.

Meanwhile as predicted the story is spreading through the blogosphere and the mainstream media. The New York Times reports Biden Unwraps His Bid for ’08 With an Oops! which includes a statement made by Al Sharpton to Senator Biden in a phone call “I told him I take a bath every day”. The article also provides a good point by point reconstruction of the events after Biden made the comment.

The Washington Times writes Nothing clean or bright in Biden’s ‘08 opener.

On the Blog front Chili Dog Blog writes Get out, Joe, while you still have a shred of dignity

Black MYstory blogs in Biden showing his true colors? that if Biden had been a Republican the left would have “blown this to epic proportions”.

The Largest Minority adds some thoughts along with a clip from Biden’s Daily Show appearance where he talks about the incident.

Joe Biden: A Major Mistake So Early in the Game?


January 31st, 2007

This is going to take some time to work through the blogosphere (by time I mean a good hour or so) but it is being reported that Senator Joe Biden who has announced intent to run for President has said the following about Barack Obama: “I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy”

Now the original source of the story at the observer isn’t loading, my guess because it is now linked from Drudge and several other big Internet places (I am guessing it is in TotalFark now and will make Fark sometimes today) so it is bogged down. I used to believe if it didn’t come up it was because there was something untrue but have since learned as long as the source is somewhat reputable it is a traffic issue.

Anyway Gen. Wesley Clark was recently hit for some Jewish comments he made that made its way onto the Blogosphere and I am guessing Biden, who also recently made comments about Indians working at 7-11 & Dunk’in Donuts, is about to take a wallop of negative online press.
