"I find it hard to believe that Biden's blundering could be any worse than the intentional sabotage being done by Obama."

Biden would crumble under the spotlight if he were President. I'd give it less than a week.

If everything that idiot said was into a microphone, people would run from the room screaming for teams of Doctors, and orderlies with straight jackets.

Yep... Warren is making Coakley look sane and Coupe Deville Patrick a centrist.

Lieahwatha Warren has zero crediability and the zealots with in the party has no other choice or they are just that stupid.. I would bet Debbie Downer and Lieahwahtha have been communing with the ONE over some Choom.

I do believe the One does not want to win a second term. Othugga will be the first former US President to renounce his citizenship while campaigining to run the UN on a hate America program minus the Wookie and chilldrens.. The World will go bonkers for this crap and you think we have problems now on the internaional stage! The Globalist crowd and all of the UN will be on our butts in ways we can’t fathom when Othugga pulls that stunt.

What is not clear is this, if Biden suddenly became president, would America be worse off than it already is?

Probably the same. He would have the same bunch of idiots controlling him.

Sam Goldwyn was the legendary Hollywood producer who was known for malapropisms (“A verbal contract isn’t worth the paper it’s written on”).
The writer is a moron who:

A) Doesn't know what a malapropism is (A malapropism is the misuse of similar sounding words, especially with humorous results, such as Yogi Berra's statement: "Texas has a lot of electrical votes," rather than "electoral votes")

and

B) Doesn't realize that Sam Goldwyn was making a very clever joke (based on decades of experience in verbal contracts) and knew exactly what he was doing with that sentence.

This is what government schools lead to: functional illiteracy.

The dems didn’t suffer because of Biden the first time, because they had the “Sarah Palin is just as dumb” response.

I don’t think they can pull that with Ryan.

Why would she say that?

She just made it impossible for Obama to use that particular escape hatch.

Within the sphere of liberal wisdom, how could the POTUS actually follow the advice of a ditz like Sarah Palin?

Replacing Joe would be admitting that Teh Awesome made a mistake appointing him in the first place. And Teh Awesome never makes mistakes. Replacing him now would be admitting that Teh Awesome thinks he could lose this election. And Teh Awesome never loses.

And Liz Warren would be trading one kind of trouble for another. And Hillary is at least as likely to bail out for 2016 as she is to switch from State to VP nominee in a campaign she could lose with a running mate she thinks she should have been president instead of in the first place. Now that I think of it, more so. No, Barry and Joe are stuck with each other.

you say “But, a Hillary VP slot cold energize the Dems.”

She may not dare to run at this time - not with the long simmering pot that is Huma now at a boiling point
I don’t think she - nor the demoRats - want to stir that pot right now

Be careful of what you ask. One of life’s enduring lesson’s is yes, things can always get worse. Much worse.

This sounds like the precursor of the obama campaign’s claim that lynchings will follow Romney’s election.

Nooses everywhere again. Wait and see.

Thank you, but the credit goes I think to some Southie I heard on Howie Carr came up with it. Pretty bad when the demoncrap strong hold faithful are A. calling in to howie carr B. coming up with names like that.

I expect a press release for coming:

The great white land whale, Ted who swims with firewater on chapaquidick,who departed to burning sulfur pit, leaving Lieahwahtha Warren by the lefty shores of cambridge with no smoke’m for peace’m pipe or cash for next bigg’um digg’um great moneey pit to purchase prosperity and progress for lazy brothers and held down squaws.

I hope you challenge their idiocy. Ask them what Obama does to help the working class and poor.

I respect your opinion but, that’s a bit harsh when you’re among FRiends

You are exactly right - apologies to anyone that was insulted.

I heard yesterday from a reliable source that Obama is going to drop Biden and put in Hillary. Now that would energize their base.

Ok this might be reading into this to much but think about this for a second, who does the left and Obama hate more than America? Who Is their arch enemy? Palin. The last thing they would ever do is take her advice, if she put it out there that they should drop Lord doofus and they did it would look like they valued her opinion. Just a thought. To be honest, I’m starting to enjoy Biden unhinged...it’s representative of the liberal mind.

Bingo,the money quote.

I do not think that Biden is stupid. He has been protected for decades by the MSM, and now with the new media he cannot be protected anymore.

I suspect that Biden is well above average intelligence, but to make lots of public appearances and not make gaffes, you have to be in the upper .01% of intelligence if your basic beliefs are running in gaffeland.

Biden is likely just in the upper 1 percent of intelligence of the general population, about like the normal high school valedictorian. I think Palin is in that upper .01 percent, or better. She is brilliant.

The example seems to me to be an example of sly wit rather than a malapropism

You never were sure with Goldwyn.

One of my favorites of his was, "Well, if it comes to that, include me out."
