From the pool report inside Independence Hall -- which we posted earlier in our liveblog -- there's this great tidbit on Joe Biden straying away from his prepared remarks in Philly today to talk to former VP foe Sarah Palin. We haven't seen Biden in this rare form since the infamous Western Pa SNL skit:
Biden's prepared remarks were:
"And Governor Palin, your being here today sends a powerful message that when campaigns end, we are all partners in progress. Thank you."
But here's what he said:
"And Governor Palin, I want to thank you particularly."
"I might point out, as I told you, we walked in. Since the race is over, no one pays attention to me at all. So I'm -- maybe you will walk outside with me or something later and say hello to me," prompting laughs from all, but an especially loud one from Kaine.
"It's great to see you, Governor."

Palin has to be amused with all these metro-sexual posers drooling after her.
I think its kind of endearing in a way, that he is so taken with her. She is attractive and smart, and they would do well for themselves to listen to her energy ideas.
I also think it was correct for him and Obama to recognize her today. She is what made the race, after all.
Priceless
Well, I'll admit to the horndog part, but I'm only interested in VOTING for Sarah, not sleeping with her. Not that I wouldn't if we were married, understand.
Unless you are Joe Biden...(chuckle)
No denying she’s a hottie. But then again, so is my wife, so I don’t feel the need to sleep with her.
Besides, from what I can tell, both of them are good shots, and I hear getting shot once really hurts, let alone three times.
(three because I figure the First Dude might shoot me as well as my wife, and Governor Palin)
It is Bidens latest gaffe. We all know Biden sometimes just speaks the truth and gets into trouble. His comments about some international crisis testing Obamas will is legendary. Basically, he is sayin that no one notices him after he becomes VP elect. He needs to walk with Sarah to get some attention. He is taking a slight dig at Obama being less popular than Sarah. Im sure he will be chastised by Obamamaniacs for his candid comments. Not only you Joe, the whole world will want to walk with Sarah in a few years. Just wait and see.
The left is determined to "Quayle" her. You can see it by every dismissive cartoon, hateful comment by MSNBC and snide reporting by the MSM.
Screw 'em. I like her and she walks the walk and talks the talk. She's pro-life, she didn't kill her baby. She's pro-troops, her son is serving our country in Iraq.
They did the same thing to Reagan and will do the same thing to every conservative.
that's why the "geniuses" like Pelosi, Biden, Maxine, Kennedy (any of them), Clintons, are so, so, so, so... smart. In spite of the idiotic statements, lack of understanding of the constitution, or economics... they get a pass.
Biden went way off his written speech to say something about Palin. I think it's kinda of nice.. almost making me bad for posting the picture above... almost.
Joe who?
Sarah wouldn’t sleep with any of those clowns if her life depended on it. They are all jealous of her, she is an accomplished, smart, attractive, independent woman who doesn’t take crap from no one. Joe Biden, well, he is the gift that keeps on giving. I don’t know who more to worry about, Obama who is a marxist extremist or Biden who is an absolute moron. It’s lose/lose
Next to Arafat, I can think of no one more irrelevant in today’s political world than Joe Biden.
If it was a nice gesture, how come that buffoon Kaine couldn’t stop laughing. By the way, HILARIOUS picture. You guys crack me up with some of these comments
“I also think it was correct for him and Obama to recognize her today.”
Did Obama recognize her, too? I missed that....
LOL!
“You could tell during the debates when he smiled or laughed. I dont think it was meant in negative wayI think he just was very taken by her.
Who wouldnt be? Shes smart and beautiful.”
Absolutely. He kept pawing at her arm with that ‘Biden’ grin, until she finally walked away.
Guys like Biden start world wars with an ill timed comment.
Guys like Obama surrender, ala Jimmy Carter, before anyone even raises their voice.
Lose/lose indeed.
I think you're right & he'd better cool it before Mrs. B gives him a good thrashing. LOL
Billy O'Reilly is equally smitten and repeatedly gets spurned & ignored by Governor Palin.
You know, perhaps Governor Palin should attend some of those stuffy DC cocktail parties. Her charming nature has to win over at least some of the liberal elite.
Biden—still above his pay grade.
I think the trading deadline is maybe one hour before the electoral college meets.
