Biden's Palin obsession
Pittsburgh Post-Gazette ^ | December 2, 2008 | Timothy McNulty

Posted on 12/02/2008 11:56:19 AM PST by rightwingintelligentsia

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."

Yes, she did! Obama and Biden know that they will be dealing with her in the future.

whoops! sorry. I read it really quick (usually have to read something like 3 times before catching everything) I'll make sure to from now on...
Though in my defense it seemed nice ignoring that part.

***But then again, so is my wife, so I don’t feel the need to sleep with her.***

Interesting reason to not sleep with your wife... is that you Joe?
