We are faster. WH = LIARS
Everything the White Hut says is a lie.
As Obama has shown, the requirement for winning Democratic presidential nominations is to energize 110% of eligible black voters to vote for you in the primaries.
Joe Biden can’t do that, and neither can Hillary.
A black Democratic presidential candidate will emerge before 2016. The black community, led by the NAACP, will anoint someone, probably Cory Booker, to be its candidate.
If the black candidate wins the presidential nomination, he will have a chance to win in the general election, just as Obama did.
However, if a white candidate — Hillary, Joe Biden, or anyone else foolish enough to get into the race — wins the nomination, he/she will not be able to win the general election because he/she will not be able to get 110% of the black vote. In fact, the black community will be angry at the victorious white candidate for triumphing over the black candidate.
Joe Biden will have a lot of fun running for the nomination and make a lot of money; Hillary is already making a lot of money campaigning. If an Hispanic candidate should emerge, then things could get serious, and the entire Democratic party could implode along ethnic, feminist, and other lines.
But unless a black candidate wins the next Democratic presidential nomination, it’s likely to be over for the Democrats after 2016.
Biden sucks so it’s kinda hard to prop up that sucker.
Odd statement for a press secretary to make, but we used to have an adversarial press.
That's mighty halfrican of them..
Obama doesn’t have to prop up Biden: Ryan did that nicely enough. Like Jack French Kemp did with “my friend Al Gore”.
Wow, Short Bus has just been damned with faint damnation.
Maybe they will do to him what they did in North Korea, feed him to starving dogs.
If nobody’s around will he make a noise when he hits the floor?
I guess that makes at least two of us. If the Kenyan ain’t gonna prop up Walter the stage dummy and I never have either then It looks like Biddumdum might be on his own.
We will carnival Carney, because anyone, I say ANYONE who believes ANYTHING coming out of your pie hole is stuck on stupid.

As Joe Trippi (Democrat strategist) pointed out last night .... the Obama administration deftly picked up the Biden comment in Gates book and made the most of them .... the news media was mostly talking about Biden all day yesterday instead of Obama. The photo op at lunch, etc ..... perfect spin and done so deftly, the Obama bus didn’t even leave tread marks on Joe (this time).
“The White House is calling Biden “one of the leading statesmen of his time,” a label the vice president will surely embrace if he runs for president in 2016.”

Things are so bad now that it actually is not so easy to say that statement is wrong. Of course it could easily be called, “Damning with faint praise.” I would not be thrilled to have someone call me a greater statesman than Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, Hillary Clinton, Bill Clinton, John Boehner, John McCain, Lindsay Graham, or a host of others I could name.
Why would the President need to prop up Biden. That wire harness above the podium does a swell job, and we got a runnel for its ball bearing to go along when he needs to walk to and from the podium, as well. At open air events, there’s a helicopter over head that does a fine job.
I don't believe I have ever read a more fitting description of Joe Biden.
