He's getting set up to be dumped

I agree, and have been saying:

Many of these stupid slips and comments by Biden just might be on purpose - a ploy of the Democrat party so they have some excuse for dumping him. Since the nomination of Sarah Palin for the GOP vice presidential spot they have been in a panic spin. There has been a lot of talk insinuating that they might be planning to replace Biden as the V.P. choice on their ticket. Biden, in consideration of Palin's popularity, and how it has damaged the Obama campaign, appears he might be in agreement. Perhaps even willing to step out - you know, for the sake of the party, LOL.

So first step was for Biden to openly state that Hillary would have been a better choice for Obama's Vice President, and tout her qualifications and capabilities for that role. That set the stage.

Then tell people they are patriotic if they pay more taxes.

Then criticize the Master's advertising strategy.

Oh, and show you don't know a hoot about history, past presidents or even when television was first available (so the Obama staff can claim you are out-of-touch, like they did about McCain).

What better way for the Dems to divorce him from the ticket and then say it was because of "irreconcilable differences" or some such excuse.

I believe the Dems.are purposely having/wanting/coaching him to mess-up by publicaly stating such foolish things. It's called planting evidence, making a case. All this to get things in line for Hillary to step in, or so it seems. I have always suspiciously anticipated that adding Hillary to the Obama ticket would be the Democrat's "Hail Mary play" at some point if the campaign was not going well.

Even though neither Obama nor Hillary wants to serve together, they might just be being forced to play by the big Democrat coaches' rules at this stage of the game since Obama is losing in popularity and "rah-rahs." Biden is just a sacrificial lamb.

Could this be their October surprise?

'don't think so. For 2 reasons:

This is just vintage Biden. He's been making gaffes like this for years.

He's too full of himself to deliberately play the fool.

Beside all that, I believe it's now past the deadline for changing candidates - they stuck with/on Stupid.

I think the obambi just couldn't bring himself to choose someone who might get a bit of the limelight - he must remain supreme. His campaign posters tell the story: for the first time I've ever seen, the names on the ticket are NOT the same size/font. 'bambi's name is in a different and much larger font while biden's name is much smaller and disappears into the background.

'bambi would not risk a charismatic or otherwise strong running mate who might steal some of the thunder.

Just the opposite of McC/
