In comparison to Joe Biden, Barack Obama appears to be a picture of probity, wisdom, and dignity.
But in reality, he's just a more unflappable liar, and now that Democrats are on the rocks in the polls, he's cribbed a page from Ronald Reagan, a man he's always had a curious fascination for, claiming that: “The country is better off than when you took office.
