Incidentally I love this image of Biden terrorising the electorate, one voter at a time:


"I'm actually the chairman of the death panel."
Experience bij!

And let's never forget the inane question asked in a 2008 debate: what do you like most about the candidate to your left?  Biden, turned to Kucinich and said 'the thing I like most about you Dennis, is your wife' :lol:
Let's bomb Russia!

Good breakdown on where the race stands by Nate Silver.

Looks like if the race was held today Obama might win the electoral vote and Romney the popular.

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Any performance where he doesn't drool while crapping his pants will be considered a decisive draw at the very least. 
And yet, Biden is apparently considering a Presidential run in 2016.  :ph34r:
My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

He'd be 73! I know people are living longer, but criminy!
Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

Any more or less of a hoot than it was in 2008, derfetus?

It's nothing we haven't already known about for over a year.  Meri, not so much, maybe.

I'd say at least 20x more.  Biden had at least a few lucid moments then.  By 2016 he'll be in one of those Dutch dementia villages.

I don't think he's really that stupid.  Certainly not as much as Republicans claim he is.  If he was a Republican they'd simply say he was a "straight talker".
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
