I think the American people could tell from the applause lines that it was mostly for McCain. Rick was trying to pretend his forum was “fair and balanced”, which is was not. So Barack just happened to lose the coin toss, and McCain just happened to be OUT of the building when Barack was speaking. I don't think so. Also when asked if the candidates were present for the coin toss, which would have been the best thing to do, Rick said, "No, it was just me and my staff". His Republican staff, give me a break.

All that he's done in Illinois is run for office (he won the Senate seat by defeating R-Alan Keyes whom any child could of beat). It's time he does some work for the money we pay him here in Illinois. It seems like every other year he's running for office of something other than what he's in. Will Biden help this ticket? No.....If Biden wants to keep his own political career vibrant he will not accept the offer. Let me be clear, Obama is self serving, arrogant, shallow and will do anything to win this office.

As a fellow Democrat it's my understanding that all this time Obama has run on the idea that Washington is broken and he can bring the change we need right? So why is be going to possibly pick one of the biggest congressional figures ( Biden ) to possibly be his VP? This is very troubling to me and seems like a step back instead of a leap forward. ok.. so let me get this straight..
