WASHINGTON (AP) — The wife of Vice President-elect Joe Biden let it slip that her husband had a pick of two jobs in the Obama administration.

“Just rubbing Hillary’s nose in her sloppy seconds.
She’ll pay you back, Joe.”
It’s not Joe, it’s “the obama people”. All these drips show her up, robbing her of any power. Kennedy will get the seat too, castrating her GOOD
Old Joe may not be the sharpest knife in the drawer, but he knows his lilitations.
He isnt smart enough to be secretary of State and he couldnt hide that in that office. He can hide where he is Obma wont bother him for advice and he gives the appearance of being a wheel.
Yup, by taking his job in the next election.
It would seem that Republican women are more equal than Democratic women —
Democratic males seem to have to dominate their wives to get/stay elected—and are fearful of the wives that we don’t feel any need to dominate, like SARAH PALIN, for example.
So, it looks like we got your Progressive right here.
I wouldn’t say that about Dick Cheney.
What I want to know is what did Biden have on Obama that he would offer him ANYTHING? Biden’s reputation precedes him, so it’s not like Obama didn’t know that Joe is a loose cannon! There are a gazillion people in DC that are better qualified than Joe, that Obama could have chosen. People who don’t have loose lips! IMO, there’s more to Obama picking Joe than we know.
Good pick, Joe. Probably less chances of major damage to the country.
So BOTH of them need to be muzzled?
Who lost their lips?
HA HA...... just a nice little “dis” toward Hillary to make her feel like 2nd, 3rd choice..... Hillary, you got the leftovers!!!!
“Democratic males seem to have to dominate their wives to get/stay elected”
Somehow I don’t see Bill having dominated Hillary.
Obama is perfectly stupid enough to appoint Biden Secretary of State.
The Democrats were stupid enough to make Biden head of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee?
Yeah, Biden was apparently in anyway. He was so in, that he got to choose his job. Wonder why he was so in?
Typical of Biden that he chose the worse job...
hee hee hee.... what a “dis” for Hillary!!
Hillary got the Biden table scraps tossed on the floor for her to grovel around on her hands and knees......
How nice for Mrs. Biden to rub it in: “Hillary, my husband may be a Bozo but he’s Obama’s bozo now and you’re just the hired help!”
Maybe Hillary will be mistaken for the “cleaning lady” in the midst of some sensitive negotiations, ala Madeline Albright in Bosnia.....
re: white lie
It does seem hard to believe that Biden or anyone would be offered the “choice” where VP and Secy of State are involved. Any candidate for POTUS is going to figure out who is the best “fit” on the ticket by whatever criteria the candidate develops. I find it implausible that Obambi said to Biden “Hey, Joe, you can be my VP if you feel like it, but consider whether you’d rather have Secy. of State, or maybe any other position you choose in my admin.”
I don’t think it works that way..... Biden was probably just bloviating to his wife to puff himself up, and she was foolish enough to (1) believe him, and (2) let it slip out.
