Florida Tampa  MUST SEE VIDEO The man who introduced Sen. Joe Biden at a campaign rally in Florida goofed and said "..the next vice president of the United States John McCain!"

A former Republican who supports Barack Obama and Joe Biden is now an internet sensation.

Jim Pacillo, a recently laid-off bank worker, warmed up the crowd for Biden, at a rally Wednesday in Tampa. But as he finished his introduction, he had an "oops" moment.

"We have a simple pretty choice in this election. Do you want four more years of failed Bush economic policies? (Crowd: No!) Are you ready for the change that we all need? (Crowd: Yes!) Than no matter what your party, gender, or race or religion, please help me today in welcoming the next vice president of the United States, John McCain!"

But the crowd of 3,500 didn't seem to notice. They cheered as if Pacillo had said Biden's name and roared as the usual Biden walk-up music played on cue.

Biden didn't draw any attention to the blunder.

"Let me thank Jim for that nice introduction," Biden said.

that is great, i remember watching that speech on tv as a child.

Yeah, well I just emailed the site, along with a nice little note to some media types that are Obama biased.

mrseek1234, i liked that website. the videos made me cry.

If you think this is an issue about race- why not check out http://www.nbra.info?

Why not research both candidates on a nonbiased site like opensecrets, fact check, Obama-Biden.info and compare the candidates, their policies and the reality of their words? Make an INFORMED decision, not one based on fancy rhetoric.We all know Obama is an excellent speaker. Find out what is behind those words.

To allude that McCain is ready for the nursing home, is ridiculous. His mom is 95, and I can only hope I am half as spry as her, if I reach that age. Statistically, black men have a shorter life span. Obama is at risk of a massive heart attack or stroke, has done untold damage from admitted use of cocaine and smoking for years (which he is now back to-the smoking, not the cocaine-per his admission), which is a time bomb waiting to happen. Which candidate do you REALLY think will have an untimely death?

oh bull determinedone, you want obama because of his mixed heritage, and his past shows what he is made of. i would not try to tell you anything but lets face it you are a child of the obama propaganda. the facts are about obama are out in the open.  http://www.worldnetdaily.com/?pageId=77539  now lets talk william ayers

Determinedone-I too am self employed, raising 4 kids-5 if you count the foreign exchange student we host, numerous others if you count my home is always a haven for friends of any color, any nationality, and any background. I have no problem with Obama’s mixed heritage. For that matter, how do you know that I am not of mixed heritage, or a person of color? You ass-ume I am white, because I do not support a person who has had ties to terrorists-Ayers for one, racist pigs like Wright and Farakhan, and ties with PLO leaders, Hamas praises him, the Islamic groups elude to him as the Messiah, then there is the whole Fannie/Freddie and Leahman thing. Not to mention ACORN. He came out of nowhere, giving all these feel good messages. Believe me, I felt good and actually thought he would perhaps be a good candidate AT FIRST. UNTIL-I started learning more about the candidate, and his policies. If he doesn’t destroy America, his policies will. continued…

I respect my elders, rosepetal.  I do not need you to give me lessons in respect. But McCain has done absolutely nothing in which he deserves to have my respect. A lot of people have picked on Obama because of his mixed heritage and they automatically assume that he must be tied to terrorists.  So, if they feel that way about him, they might feel that way about everyone who is of mixed heritage, especially of Middle Eastern ancestry.  So, don’t try to reprimand me or throw personal insults towards me about my comments because you are a McPalin lover. Good day!

determinedone, when you speak ill of someone because they are up in years, just remember you will be to one day. if you show disrespect for one because of age you will all. now if you took my pointing that out to you as personal so be it. this election is very important and we all should be very afraid of a socialst government. it was the socialst who caused this mess we are in now. just remember when you address mccains age you are also addressing the voters in his age group.

Are you insane? I was talking about MCCAIN! NOT YOU!  Get a GRIP!  If you took that comment personally, that’s not my problem.  You’re defending McCain, like he’s a relative.  Gosh, you’re sad!  This would not have started if you had kept your comment to yourself about my respect for my parents.  You are back-peddling, which I’ve seen you do many times before! You were wrong and instead of apologizing, you make it worse. I simply warned you about the comment, but then you take it to the extreme.  I wonder if I should just IGNORE ROSEPETAL from now on!
