I wish Joe Biden could be VP forever and I wish his handlers would let him mouth off every once in a while. That was seriously supposed to be part of the package deal.

The secret service should still keep him out of groping range though.

I am up to the part where he slips in the comparison to Sarah Palin and death camps and I am thinking about going back to watch that VP debate too. It's not as good because you could tell Biden was (wisely) holding WAY back from just destroying and humiliating her, but that made it entertaining in its own way.

That's probably true. Obama needs to put him out there more often to laugh at Republicans because that gif a couple of posts up makes me feel that all is right with this gay Earth

I'll be really surprised if he runs but yeah lol


I watched both Biden VP debates just now, the Palin one isn't really worth rewatching. It was riveting at the time because no one knew if Palin was going to meltdown on stage or hold her own or what, but seen today it's not that interesting (JB choking up, as linked earlier, is the most powerful part obviously). Ryan v Biden is still good though and this gif really captures it :)

Biden has always dropped the best insults in debates.

I don't really like this one, it's obviously pre-written material he was just waiting for a good chance to use. In his Ryan debate he is just extremely well-informed and seems utterly comfortable with all his policies and knowledge, and Martha Raddatz has to hold him back from just spitting FACTS all the time. Then whenever Ryan tries to recite empty party slogans like a magic spell, Biden just looks over at him like "what the gently caress are you even talking about dude? Really??" then back to the moderator with a big grin "Haha can you loving believe this guy? Getta loada this!"

That's what made "please proceed, governor" so devastating, it couldn't have been scripted or choreographed. Bernie Sanders is super well-informed too, and passionate and well-spoken about important issues of equality etc, but I just don't know if Bernie can express a fraction of the condescending disdain that Biden pulls off so well.

That's not Bernie's style. He just rips people another rear end in a top hat instead. So I look forward to debates if he can ream people with facts and sticks to the topics, which he always does.

I guess that's good for a presidential candidate, but he could probably use a running mate with a bit more panache... might I suggest, oh, Joseph Robinette Biden Jr.???

Name a President and I will bring out their innocent dead.

Better yet, name a president (besides you know who) and someone post about his or her election please! Non-US presidents too hence the gendering.
