I LOVE Joe Biden! He is the most down-to-earth, genuine, easy-to-relate-to politician I've ever seen.

Glad you're here, especially joining us in one of our little Joe Biden love fests! I am SO pleased that President Obama picked him as his running mate. They're a terrific team, and he sure did put little punk-ass upstart Congressman Widow's Peak in his well-deserved place. Biden has been toiling in the back of the vineyard for years - and he's MORE THAN earned all this. I wouldn't mind seeing him in the BIG chair, but then again, I wouldn't mind seeing Hillary get there, either.

Hey, do we have bench-strength, or do we have bench-strength? And add in people like Deval Patrick and Cory Booker, and one (or both) of the Castro brothers, and that's just the short list!
