Wow, that's tragic.  And so close to election day!

Glad he got to see her before she died.  It's too bad she did no live long enough to see the outcome of the election if he were to win tomorrow.  Imagine the pride she would have felt in seeing a child she helped  raise become POTUS.

Now the tasteless comments and nut-job conspiracies will start about her death being hastened to get a sympathy vote.

Maybe he will tone down the party tomorrow night and just go be with his family?

I am glad that Obama took time out of his campaign to go see her.  I saw David Plouffe on Fox on Sunday.  His wife is one day past due for their second child.  Chris Wallace asked what he would do if his wife went into labor on Tuesday.  Without hesitation, he said he would leave Chicago immediately to go be with his wife.  These guys have their priorities straight.

So hypothetically, if Obama suddenly dropped dead of natural causes before tomorrow (don't want to give anyone any awful ideas here), would Biden get the sympathy vote?  I'm not so sure about that.
