Carol Alvarado, Sylvia Garcia React to the Biden Choice


by: David Mauro

Sat Aug 23, 2008 at 02:08 PM CDT


Former Houston City Councilwoman (and future State Representative) Carol Alvarado and Harris County Commissioner Sylvia Garcia told the Houston Chronicle what they thought of Barack Obama's choice of Joe Biden as his running mate.

Alvarado:

"Senator Biden is a tough and aggressive campaigner who we need to help us win back the White House. He is highly respected by his Senate colleagues. He is one of the country's most knowledgeable and experienced leaders on foreign affairs. He's experienced the rigors of a presidential campaign, so he knows what to expect over the next 10 weeks. He's a great Democrat. I look forward to campaigning on behalf of the ticket in my community."

Garcia:

Not surprised as Biden brings foreign policy experience to the ticket. Disappointed as it apparently seems that in the race for the White House its a man's world afterall.

Alvarado and Garcia are both Clinton delegates to the Democratic National Convention.

Too bad (1.00 / 3)
It sounds like Carol Alvarado is on the Unity Pony and will fall in line like a good little girl.  Garcia hits the nail on the head.

So (5.00 / 1)
hitting the nail on the head is the same as cutting off your nose to spite your face. Maybe, Carol Alvarado is a loyal Democrat and Sylvia Garcia is,how should I say this.......BITTER. LOL
