NYC Letter: Joe On The Job VI

Day 163 of CHOPE

What's humbled me, as you walk out, I mean, everywhere I go, crowds spontaneously assemble. They start to cheer, whether I go to a play on Broadway or I'm going home to Wilmington, Delaware. I walk on the train. People stand up and clap. I mean, it's humbled me.

BIDEN FAILS TO DRAW CROWD IN ERIE

WATTSBURG, Pennsylvannia July 1, 2009 (Pittsburgh Tribune-Review) - Vice President Joe Biden visited a small town on the outskirts of Erie today to talk to rural folks about federal stimulus money that can be used to expand broadband access to the Internet for rural areas that typically have poor connections.

Apparently stimulus money and broadband are not all that interesting to the local folk here: Only around 100 or so people have showed up so far to hear Biden talk at noon at Seneca High School off Route 8 in Wattsburg.

The room looked so sparse that about 30 or so chairs were removed by volunteers to give the illusion of a full house.

The effect didn't exactly work.

SPONTANEOUS ASSEMBLY REQUIRED
More Humbling

Just a reminder, the greatest danger to America is the president dying in office. Keep Mr. Obama safe in your prayers until you vote him out.

CHOPE.

Can't give it away.
