Joe Biden: God's Gift to the Next Four Years

He really is living up to his billing as an eight-cylinder, dual-carb gaffe machine. Vroom! Vroom-vroom!! Today's offering is of the "if you elect Barak, I guarantee some tin-horn dictator will toss the world into a Cuban missile-style crisis just to see if he's as weak as he looks" variety. I think we can anticipate that this wasn't in David Axelrod's script for the VP and that it will be one of those things that kind of seeps into the Red state bloodstream over the next few days. Gallup notes that there's been a slight shift away from McCain among men. Joe's probably taken care of that problem.

It won't be enough, of course. Short of an actual foreign policy crisis (where is Bin Laden's election day greeting?) nothing would be. But I think we can all look forward to at least four years of Joe Biden hopping around with his foot in his mouth. He's a full employment program for the late night comics.
