YO MARTY!!!

Just minutes after the election returns arrived in Boston Tuesday night, Martin Walsh’s cellphone rang. It was the vice president of the United States, Joseph R. Biden, offering his congratulations.
“You son of a gun, Marty!” he thundered. “You did it!”
The only problem was, it was the wrong Marty Walsh.
Biden had called the cellphone of Marty Walsh, a former aide to US Senator Edward M. Kennedy who is now the president of Gateway Public Solutions, a government relations firm in Boston.
At the time, this Marty Walsh said, he was sitting on the couch with his wife at their home in Natick, watching the election results on television. Meanwhile, the other Marty Walsh, the one who had just been elected mayor of Boston, was at the Park Plaza Hotel, celebrating his victory.
The less-famous Marty Walsh said he thanked Biden for his kind words, but told him that he reached the wrong Marty. He offered to help the vice president track down the right one, the one who had just been elected mayor.

“STAND UP CHUCK!”
Bump
Biden would be a lot less dangerous than Obama.
And we would all have a good laugh.

Yup. F****** Huge! The plugs grew into the brain ‘ceptin where the plate blocked their progress.
Um, it would be Valerie Jarrett's third term.
The professional fool strikes again.
The man’s an idiot.
I agree. Waaay better than what we have.
“And we would all have a good laugh.”
Every day. The Daily Fool.
Can always count on Biden for a good laugh.
Poor Uncle Joe. Sometime I think Biden’s own staff jerks him around for the private giggle. They know Biden will just presume it as another Senior Moment and shrug it off. The staffers can pretend to be surprised and confused such a fundamental screw up could possibly occur. This may be one of those times. That should not have happened.
"thank you, Joey"
What...an...idiot...
I meant for the rest of this term.
I seriously doubt Biden could win a presidential election as the top contender.
