ST. LOUIS (AP) -- Vice President Joe Biden boldly predicted Friday that voters would reject a "Republican tea party" of extreme candidates and Democrats would retain control of Congress this November.
In a pep talk for the party's rank and file, the vice president challenged the widespread notion that significant losses in House races, and perhaps the Senate, could cost the party its comfortable majorities - a possibility White House press secretary Robert Gibbs suggested last month before saying Democrats will hang onto the House.

Poor Rimshot. He’s feeling the stress of knowing that he’ll be thrown under the bus before the 2012 election.

Why are they hammering the tea party and the Republicans? Why don’t they just run on their wonderful record?

Hmmm, just like he boldly predicted the Stimulus would keep unemployment under 8%????
Keep talking, Joe

Biden is afraid of the Tea Party. If they weren’t important and have such great support, he wouldn’t even address them.

If winning candidates of either pursuasion, having been backed by the TeaParty Patriots doesn't get ready to govern, like "hit the ground running," they will not only lose the momentum of a landslide, but the ability to represent "the will of the people" in very short order.
Winning will involve a huge challenge to effectively changing sharply back to a path of stability and sustainability in public policy!!!
This starts with the complete reversal of ObamaCare and any of his other crappola right up front!!!

Better to be at a tea party than to be with kool-aid drinkers.
