Another cup of Joe

Aug 24, 2008 17:01

Some interesting stuff I read today:

From Chuck Todd: "Joe's Lockdown: Obama campaigns today in Wisconsin, tomorrow in Iowa, Tuesday in Missouri, and Montana on Wednesday -- all without Biden. In short, they won't stump together again until after convention. While that move seems surprising at first glance, think about it this way: The images we saw yesterday of Obama and Biden together in Springfield (with their sleeves rolled up, one wearing a blue tie, the other wearing a red one) will be the only images we'll see of the duo until Thursday. It's all about message and image control -- something the Obama campaign has prided itself on these past 18 months."

More analysis from Nate Silver on the pick here and here.

Background galore on Joe here. (which links to lots more fun stuff)

And lastly, Mike Allen of Politico reports that an unnamed reporter's 9 year old daughter dubbed the ticket BoJo...we're seriously corrupting the nation's youth.
