QuoteIt's late in the game, but if anyone's taking former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin (R) seriously anymore, they will agree with her assessment of Vice-President Joe Biden as needing to be replaced as a running-mate with President Obama.

She is referring to comments made by Biden during a campaign stop in Southern Virginia Tuesday, where he made his now infamous comment about "chains."

In his comments on Tuesday, Biden accused the Republican presidential candidate, Mitt Romney of formulating an economic agenda that would end up dragging down the middle-class.

His exact words were, "They're going to put y'all back in chains." In turn, the Obama campaign has been working to explain the comment away, pointing to the GOP's much used refrain saying they want to "unshackle the private sector."

Palin was given the opportunity to comment on Biden's gaffe during an interview with Fox News' Greta Van Sustern on Tuesday.

"There weren't enough groans and boos when he said such a disgusting comment, really, especially to a demographic there that is -- includes about 48 percent of the community being black Americans," Palin said.

Palin went on to explain that she thought the comment by Biden was the "nail in the coffin," and a perfect opportunity for Obama's strategists to look at bringing in Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to replace Biden.

Mitt Romney went even further on Tuesday night, when during a campaign speech, he accused Obama of creating a "campaign of division and anger and hate." Obama spokesman, Ben LaBolt answered Romney's accusation by saying Romney was just trying to play up the incident.

It's cute that Palin acts like she cares about black people. :D

Isn't it, though?  It's almost as if she's seen one up close before.

Excellent Daily Show intro piece last night on the whole Joe "Mandingo Unleashed" Biden thing, anyway...

There was that one time she met Glen Rice...  :ph34r:

She knows plenty of black people. Hell, some of her best house keepers are black.

Biden needs to be put in a home, but at this point I hope he stays on the ticket.  Within the past 2 days we've had:

  • "gonna put y'all back in chains"
  • thinking he was in North Carolina when he was in Virginia
  • forgetting which century we're in
  • calling Paul Ryan "Governor Ryan"

Drudge is making a big deal about Obama meeting with Biden this morning and then Hillary directly afterward, but apparently those meetings were scheduled long ago.

All of you that think Sarah Palin doesn't have a lot of familiarity with black people because she lives in Alaska need to read this:

This is what you get when you get a politician from a former slave state like Delaware on your ticket.

Oh stop the fucking presses.  I don't recall you saying that Bush should be "put in a home".
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Well Biden is old, Bush wasn't.  At least Biden has age and senility to blame it on.

The only reason I could see to drop Biden is how he forced Obama's hand on gay marriage. However now that the Democratic party has rallied around supporting rights for gays, that's likely a non-issue.
