Bungling Joe Biden could wreck Barak Obama’s chances of victory in November’s presidential election, senior Democrats feared last night.
Even the 65-year-old veteran senator conceded last week that Hillary Clinton was better qualified to be Mr Obama’s running mate.
It was just one of a series of gaffes that have seen Mr Biden become a liability while his Republican counterpart Sarah Palin has invigorated and transformed John McCain’s campaign fortunes.
Just a day after musing that Mrs Clinton ‘might have been a better pick than me’, Mr Biden left an audience cringing in Columbia, Missouri, when he urged a paraplegic state official to stand up and be recognised.
‘Chuck, stand up, let the people see you,’ he shouted to State Senator Chuck Graham before realising, to his horror, that the local politician uses a wheelchair.
‘Oh, God love ya,’ added Mr Biden. ‘What am I talking about?’

LOL. He’s such a dope...
Too late! The tooth paste is already out of the tube! STEW IN IT YOU RATS!!
When he said Hillary would be a better VP pick is what is sinking him.
Actually that was an honest mistake, sometimes under pressure a person can forget surroundings. That I can forgive.
I cannot overlook the “lipstick on a pig” comment which was absolutely deliberate...and Obama knew it, too.
Biden had also referred to Chuck as his good friend. Ha, he didn’t know him at all.
Nah . .
But if the messiah told him to stand up he could have. he is the magic negro
“‘Oh, God love ya,’ added Mr Biden. ‘What am I talking about?’”
Conservatives have been wondering that for decades!

Curly Joe Biden is welcome to join in, but Moe-bama doesn’t really need any help. He and his campaign stooges are self-sabotaging nicely.
Obama was in decline even before the Biden pick. It was hoped Biden would cover for Obama’s lack of experience. The actual case is that Biden has not had any positive impact and has brought nothing to the table.
why isn’t this a commercial??
the most important decision a future president can make, even his vice presidencial nominee said he got it wrong.

obama- not ready to lead
not right for america.
We need the “Stand Up, Chuck” Peanuts cartoon, stat!
Can you imagine the reaction if a Republican politician had asked a wheelchair bound person to stand up and take a bow? They would have ridiculed such a person endlessly, and even dug up his/her voting record on handicapped/disability issues if it would make him/her look foolish.
It was an innocent mistake that any politician could make, and having seen the video, I think Biden made a gracious recovery as best he could.
Only interesting thing about it is how demonized he would have been if he had been a republican doing the same thing.
I cannot overlook the “lipstick on a pig” comment which was absolutely deliberate...and Obama knew it, too.
Sure he did.
He’s walking, talking & sounding more like a thug every day!
Boy wouldn’t that be a tragedy? NOT.
“Get up Chuck... get off that contraption! WALK I SAY... WALK!!”
Obama is doing it to himself. Biden is just helping.
