Joe Biden Endorses John McCain

I'd been waiting for John McCain to make an ad regarding Joe Biden's prediction that "Barack Obama would be tested." Here's what the McCain campaign came up with:



This ad is ok, but it misses the part where Biden said, "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."

The truly frightening part of Biden's statement isn't that our enemies will test us--that happens after every new president is inaugurated. What was terrible was that Biden was having to warn the mind-numbed robots that they would have to be very vocal in their support of whatever Obama does because most people aren't going to approve.

But maybe it's hard to make that argument in 30 seconds.
