Best Biden Line/s Of The Debate

[casus belli]

Haven't seen a post on this yet, but I'll be happy to defer to any previously posted threads if they exist.

I thought Biden did extremely well despite the restraints placed on him by the format. He definitely dropped some zingers. My two favorites:

"With all due respect, I do not hear a plan" when responding to Palin's comments about Iraq.

"The past is prologue" invoking Shakespeare as a clever retort to Palin's assertion that Biden and Obama were to busy pointing fingers backward to be agents of change.

I thought most real moment was easily hands down biden with his reflection on his son's injury in his wife's tragic car accident.

So what were some of your favorite zingers, quotes or moments?

Ultimate Bridge to Nowhere FTW!!

1. John McCain is no maverick! He kicked her butt on that one

[Dbdmjs1022]

2. The "Ultimate Bridge to Nowhere" line was a personal favorite.

4. mine too. NT

11. Ah, yeah. That was good. By her reaction, she knew he got her good on that one. n/t

[BattyDem]

17. That was almost as good as "A noun, a verb and 9/11"

:D

3. I liked the whole McPalin is not a Maverick moment (eom)

[gmoney]

21. A flip-flopper is not the same thing as a maverick...

neither is a loose cannon

[CrispyQ]

5. Calling out the whole maverick bullshit.

I'm glad he did it at the end of the debate, too, cuz on the CNN meter, every time she mentioned John McCain the maverick, she flat-lined.

6. I gotta'go with the "Ultimate Bridge to Nowhere". That was a work of art.

7. The moment reflecting on his kids

That was indelible. People will remember that when they remember Joe Biden.

16. My wife and I discussed this when it happened

both of us wondered whether the Republican machine would try to use the moment against him. After some discussion we both agreed that it would be a serious miscalculation for them to even try it. It was definitely, for us, one of the highlights of the debate since it showed how real he is, and connected to his emotions. I think it will help some people connect with him on a very real level if they hadn't already.

20. No pundit's even mentioning, much less analyzing, it

Kind of an unspoken but mutually understood sacred moment. You hear so much about the other three's 'personal narratives.' I'm sure it came as a shock to many that Joe's got his own, perhaps more profound than any of them.

8. You can bet the "The past is prologue" went right over her head.

WAY over.

[1corona4u]

12. Oh yeah, no doubt....

[casus belli]

14. That's what made it so beautiful.

I think he did an amazing job of putting in a few hard jabs without coming off as aggressive. She was simply out of her league.

[BattyDem]

15. She probably thought, "Pro log? Who's pro log? They never said we'd be talking about logs!"

:evilgrin:

[casus belli]

18. "John McCain and I are definitely not pro-log"

"and when we are in the white house, if we are so previleged, we will make sure to rid the world of logs once and for all."

[ncteechur]

9. I like when he said, "In the words of Dick Cheney, "Go F*&K yourself."

[casus belli]

13. Missed that one. ;) Wish he had though. n/t

[opihimoimoi]

10. "That Cheney is an EVIL ASSHOLE SOB"

I liked that lil ditty

[political_Dem]

19. The Ultimate Bridge to Nowhere. That line was great. /eom
