When Regular Joe Six-Pack Bluecollar Biden tried to match her on the Main Street cred, it rang slightly wacky. "Look," he said, "All you have to do is go down Union Street with me in Wilmington or go to Katie's Restaurant or walk into Home Depot with me, where I spend a lot of time." Why? Is he moonlighting as a checkout clerk on the evening shift? Or is he stalking that nice lady in Lighting Fixtures? As for Katie's Restaurant, ah, I'm sure it was grand but apparently it closed in 1990. In the Diner of the Mind, the refills are endless, and Sen. Joe is sitting shootin' the breeze over a cuppa joe with a couple other regular joes on adjoining stools while Betty-Jo, the sassy waitress who's tough as nails but with a heart of gold, says Ol' Joe, the short-order cook who's doing his Sloppy Joes just the way the senator likes 'em, really appreciates the way that, despite 78 years in Washington, Joe Biden is still just the same regular Joe Six-Pack he was when he and Norman Rockwell first came in for a sarsaparilla all those years ago. But, alas, while he was jetting off for one-to-one talks with the Deputy Tourism Minister of Waziristan, the old neighborhood changed.

Ha! Classic Steyn, there!
“Look”. There’s that word again. Both Biden and Obama like to use “Look” to start sentences. Sort of a short-form version of “listen up you plebs”.
“”Don’t sell the American people short,” Obama honcho David Axelrod said. “They need more than a wink and a smile.” OK, so how about this? Joe Biden mocked the McCain campaign’s energy policy as “Drill, drill, drill”, and the governor came back to correct the line: “It’s not ‘Drill, drill, drill’,” she grinned. “It’s ‘Drill, baby, drill!’
Amen Baby, Amen! She closed the door on the MSM half-wits, and welcomed in half of America.
Gaffe!
"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Palelologus
Curley Joe also failed to mention the time he spends in 7-Elevens and Dunkin Donuts.
Steyn ping!!!
BTTT
What's worse is when Biden said (a couple of times) "I'm gonna say this twice." What a condescending assclown!
“In the diner of the mind, the refills are endless” LOLOL
"My friend John McCain voted 422 times against tax cuts for the middle classes. Let me repeat that so the American people are clear on this. My friend John McCain voted 673 times against tax cuts for the middle classes."
Biden is the gift that keeps on giving.
BETTY-JO: "Joe... Kiss mah grits!"
It seems Biden isn’t connecting real well with Joe Six-Pac.
Very common on the round table discussion shows. It is getting to be overused and annoying.
A favorite of George Will.
That's pretty funny.
I’ve noticed Obama has a verbal tendency rattle off “Now, hold on there...” and “Now hold on a second...” “when confronted with truth he doesn’t like to hear.
He said it to OReilly
Now hold on Bill...
To Stephanopolous
Now hold on George...
To Sweetie
Now hold on a second sweetie
It became so obvious that Joe was just making up those numbers willy nilly.
"Quote and I'm paraphrasing". What a jamoke.
You mean the ones with the Indians?
If I were President, Steyn would be in my cabinet along with Victor Davis Hanson, Thomas Sowell and Ann Coulter.
Since Joe has been drawing from the taxpayer trough for about 35 years, I would think that he lives in a reasonably nice house and a matching neighborhood.
When he kept drawing on “in my neighborhood”, I wanted to scream.
Joe has never lived in the neighborhoods most of us live in, and we will never live in his.
If he is a Home Depot, I think it is only for campaigning. I don’t see him ever getting a callus from doing any real work. I’ll bet that I have had more calluses that Joe in my life, and I am female and almost 69.
You can google his home and see. His home, er compound, is worth about $2 million.
Pathetic that a creep like this could destroy Bork—almost destroy Thomas
I guess Palin took the right tact on TV being nice while taking him on but an SOB like him needs his gonads handed to him
Make Ann the Press Secretary and let her abuse the media as much as she wants.
Hah! I like the idea of sending Todd Palin up to Maine. They should send Sarah and Todd to Minnesota’s Iron Range. In normal times this area is solidly Democratic. They are union workers there, but, they always elect a pro-life Democrat since they actually have a lot of old-fashioned values.
The Palins are putting Minensota into play this year. Our outdoorsmen love them for their normalcy, their love of hockey, snowmobiling, hunting and fishing!
It also helps that the loonie toonie Democrats nominated a screwed up mysogynistic, pornographic writer, anti-Catholic, not-so-funny comedian for the U. S. Senate - Al Franken. Franken’s crudeness reveals the Democrats for who they are.
Loved it!
Yeah, that one.
For those who haven’t seen this, it’s worth 30 seconds. Biden gets away with murder starting about 12 seconds into it. What kills me is not just what he says but that snide crap-eating grin he has during the insult, and then tops it of with “and I’m not joking either.”
Too much . . lol.

Honey, he never had a prayer.
ROTFLOL
Ann as press secretary! I didn’t think of that. That’s brilliant. People would pay to see her make mincemeat out of those fools. I could balance thj budget.
