I vaguely recall Kerry doing the same thing but they weren&#8217;t needed because it wasn&#8217;t close enough in any state for them to cheat and try to steal the election.<br \/>\nHere&#8217;s the rest of the quote on McCain:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;One of the debates I&#8217;ve had and finally won within the campaign, Claire, is &#8212; we talk about how John McCain&#8217;s &#8216;changed,'&#8221; Biden said. &#8220;He hasn&#8217;t changed a bit. John McCain has not changed one single solitary bit from the day I met him 34 years ago.<br \/>\n&#8220;He has never, never, never, never, never, never, never shared the values set that you share,&#8221; Biden said. &#8220;He&#8217;s an honorable, decent man, but John McCain truly believes, truly believes that you are corporate America&#8217;s problem,&#8221; he said to the trial lawyers. &#8220;And thank God you are.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Um&#8230;then why did Kerry want him as his running mate?<br \/>\nAnd then there&#8217;s this:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;There are two people &#8212; you&#8217;ve heard me say it before &#8212; two groups that stand between us and the barbarians at the gate,&#8221; Biden said. &#8220;It&#8217;s you and organized labor. That&#8217;s it. That is it. So, mark my words, mark my words, if we lose this election, you are going to continue to see a continuation of the onslaught on everything we care about. For real. For real. So, I&#8217;m not only thanking you for your help. I would think you&#8217;re all absolutely brain-dead if you didn&#8217;t help. And I mean it.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;Barbarians at the gate?&#8221; He&#8217;s saying this is <em>lawyers<\/em>! *snicker* If anyone understands &#8220;barbarians at the gate&#8221; it would be the trial lawyers.<br \/>\nBTW, organized labor looks ready to side with the barbarians and I think it&#8217;s telling that he doesn&#8217;t even mention the feminists. Usually they are part of the forces that keep out the barbarians but some of them (the Hillary supporters) are have know switched sides.<br \/>\nAnother btw, if you&#8217;re talking about barbarians at the gate, wouldn&#8217;t that be the Democrats? They are the ones trying to storm the WH and seize power, aren&#8217;t they?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I would think that&#8217;s a good thing \ud83d\ude42 Biden speaking to a group of lawyers tells them that their help will be needed to ensure that the Republicans don&#8217;t steal another election.
