DANVILLE, Va.— The Obama campaign said Tuesday it is confident Vice President Biden will be an effective foil against GOP vice presidential candidate Rep. Paul Ryan despite his latest gaffe.
Biden on Tuesday made headlines when he told a crowd here that the GOP ticket’s policies would put “y’all back in chains.” The remark was about Wall Street regulations, but the Romney campaign seized on the imagery of slavery to say Biden and Obama had hit a new low.
The unscripted comments highlighted Biden’s propensity for off-the-cuff statements —which at times have caused the White House embarrassment. But Biden aides say the occasional slip-ups are far outweighed by the positives that the vice president brings to the table.
“Vice President Biden has been the president’s partner and top surrogate on the campaign trail and no one is fighting harder to ensure the president is reelected in November,” a campaign official said. “He continues to travel across the country making the case for what’s truly at stake in this election and why President Obama is the right choice for middle class workers and their families.”

And those would be what again...?
Addendum- they got Spiro out of the way before they got Dick.
Lefties use all their brain power in the pursuit of power. They are calculating manipulating. In one sense they are genius at the end game. However, they are flat out nuts and liers. Any sane self suffient common sense human would not want to live by lefty rules.
Consider history. Every tyrant/mad man was minority rules.
Hey Plugs,
Good luck trying to walk this one back because...
Your “chains” comment is a Big F’n Deal!
As I said earlier; a Ryan vs Biden debate would be like Einstein debating a cat about quantum theory physics.
Good managers hire people smarter than they are.
Bad managers hire people not quite as smart as they are.
“As I said earlier; a Ryan vs Biden debate would be like Einstein debating a cat about quantum theory physics.”
I disagree; a cat cannot make a fool of itself in this situation.
The Democratic party held slaves in chains. That new, upstart Republican party released them from chains.
Ironic?
True. But it could turn and lick it's behind. It would still have more poise and intelligence than Biden.
“Stand up, Chuck! Let’em all have a look atcha...”
Kinda like a train wreck, but in slo-mo.
Isn’t the ‘obama campaign’ the ones that crafted Biden’s speech ?
Didn’t Bite Me say that he was happy to be in ___ and he was in ___? ie got state wrong..NC vs VA? I heard something on the radio but can’t find a link.
I have always been afraid that we won’t see a debate between Plugs and Ryan. I would put nothing past BO and his thugs, including finding a way to not show up.. Same for the Obungler in Chief.
I doubt that.
Here are the first two planned questions:
Vice President Biden, since President Obama single-handedly killed Osama Bin Laden, do you think the world is now a safer place ?
Next question, uh Mitt, do you know exactly how many Chick-Fil-A's there are in Muskogee, Alabama ? Please give a yes or no answer only.
.....while speaking to yawning "crowds" of 3-400, mostly either bribed or paid to show up!
With Larry Sinclair gone, Reggie Love away so much, Michelle off on vacations, and the gay Chicago Bath House off limits, .... is Biden Gay ?
Only if the cat was drunk.
LOL! You might not be far off.
Ryan would have to have 99.9% of his brain excised to make a debate with Biden competitive. If Obama is the worst president ever and there’s a very strong case for that, then Biden is most certainly the lowest IQ veep ever.
Agnew’s greed and stupidity got himself/
As did Nixon’s paranoia.] get himself.
