McCaskill Has ‘Joe Biden Moment’ by Saying Biden ‘Sometimes Says Things That Are Kind of Stupid’
abcnews.com ^ | October 1, 2008 | Jake Tapper

Sen. Claire McCaskill, D-Mo., today told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch that the American people don't know much about Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin “and she is now being thrust on a stage without a script and everyone is curious about how much she knows."

More pointedly, McCaskill said of Palin's opponent, Sen. Joe Biden, Del., that he “has a tendency to talk forever and sometimes say things that are kind of stupid.”

With Biden, that’s like saying someone is kind of pregnant.

ROFL.

Naturally, that comment will be passed over by many in the MSM.

Now imagine a female GOP senator saying the same thing about Governor Palin.

Yes, front page NYT, WaPo, etc...

Is that's what's known as "Damning withOUT faint praise"?

Of course, this could be the beginning of the end for Biden as Obama of Hyde Park’s running mate.

I think McCaskill is dirty. There’s something about her that creeps me out.

Wow, McCaskill actually had a lucid moment about Biden’s perpetual gaffes.

Broken clock theory proven true.

In other words, we ought to call our guy, Rocky, 'cause he's dumber that a box of rocks.

the people of missouri should be ashamed that they got suckered into giving granny mccaskill a sympathy vote.

she has no more business being a US senator than a plow mule

it's tough deciding who is dumber, stabenow of michigan or granny mccaskill.

Just yesterday, I walked by a house with an O/B sign in the side yard and a homemade “No More Claire McCaskill” sign in front! These dimlibs don’t know what they are for. She’s gutter trash, but no better than O/B.

I’ve been wondering if Bill Clinton is going to campaign with Biden. In a Feb. 1999 issue of the Daily Oklahoman, Biden was quoted, “ The president is an adulterer and liar”

Man, it’s bad when you’re being reamed by your own colleagues. With friends like McCaskill who needs enemas...

Well, it’s the truth. I’ve met Biden in person and have seen him speak - and the guy just can’t shut up.

Quite the contrary - if she were a DUmmie she would have won a kewpie doll for having a brief moment of mental clarity.
