Stand Up, Chuck! Todd Says Biden Has 'Gravitas' Going For Him In Debate

I say "Joe Biden," you say . . . . Joke? Gaffe machine? Not Chuck Todd. In his pre-game commentary for tonight's debate, the NBC political director claimed that, as with Cheney versus Edwards and Bentsen versus Quayle, Biden—matched up against Paul Ryan—has "gravitas" going for him.

View the video and a list of some of Grandpa Gravitas's most famous gaffes here.

An advantage of gravitas for the guy who, in addition to being Joe Biden, a big effin deal, says he’s going to go “rope-a-Dope” tonight?

If Biden has so much “gravitas”, why did he spend 6 days in a
bunker prepping for tonights debate?

Radio news just said that a ‘perfect replica’ of tonight’s debate scene has been built for Biden to practice on.

Biden is doing ONLY one debate, the last I knew.

How much $$$$$$ did this ‘perfect replica’ cost?

We don’t have guards at our Embassies and we are building a ‘perfect replica’ for a one time use debate??

No wonder Romney is going to cut items which the Feds are borrowing money from China to pay for!!!!!!

Biden will:

mention 47%

imply a 43 year old Ryan is not as good as a 69 year old Biden

order eggs because the middle class is paying too much for gas

resort to class warfare to pay for success like france has with their 75% success tax.

blame the republicans

blame g w bush

support homosexual based marriage.

Yesterday CNN made the (somewhat breathless) prediction that Biden might be able to right the listing Democrat tugboat and further stated that Joe and Paul Ryan were very much alike.

Yeah, Hillary has legs like a ballerina: one, two—just like.

And was the moderator there also with her questions? I would put nothing past them. I hope it all backfires on them... big time.

Oh no, NOT “gravitas” again.

This is the kind of ca-ca that the Dems live on and most Americans laugh at.

Chuck Todd!!??? Give me a break. He’s one of zero’s ten thousand press secretaries!!

What a joke!!

The expectation bar is so low for Biden that if he doesn’t wet himself he will be declare the winner.
Actually, if he does wet himself MSNBS will still declare him the winner.

If you haven't read ‘CULTURE OF CORRUPTION’ by Michelle Malkin yet try it. She gives a good run down on how dirty this SOB Biden is. Also follow the trail of his sons, whatever money making scams they are in their father is right there with them getting his share. And this is the guy in charge of accounting for the stimulus money. How much has been skimmed off for Biden, Obama and company?
