It wasn't supposed to be this way for Joe Biden. President, maybe. And if not, at least he would remain an independent-as-hell senior senator. But vice-president? No way. Unless...
Biden Arrives In Iraq For Meetings
U.S. Vice President Joe Biden arrived in Iraq Thursday, for meetings with Iraqi leaders, including Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki and President Jalal Talabani. Biden plans to work with the Iraqi leaders to try to bring about long-term stability in the country, the White House said Thursday, and also visit U.S. troops. Iraq celebrated National Sovereignty Day Tuesday as U.S. forces withdrew from cities and villages to military bases. But the jubilant mood masked concerns about the ability of...
BIDEN BID TO BURY BONER
WASHINGTON -- Gaffe-prone Vice President Joe Biden backtracked yesterday from comments he made at a Democratic fund-raiser in Manhattan that were widely viewed as an endorsement of Gov. Paterson's re-election.
D'OH NO! JOE WEIGHING IN FOR PATERSON
The White House charged headlong into New York state's brewing Democratic civil war last night when loose-tongued Vice President Joe Biden offered Gov. Paterson a seeming endorsement for the 2010 gubernatorial race.
Joe Biden: 'real doubt' on Iran election
The vice president questions results of Iran's elections but says it is too soon to pass judgment.
Jim Piccillo Introduces Joe Biden as John McCain
Jim Piccillo introduced Joe Biden at a rally as "the next Vice President of the United States John McCain." The audience clapped on cue. Would they have still clapped if McCain really walked out on stage?
Jim Piccillo, who is a father of two, is a Republican who started campaigning for Barack Hussein Obama after Jim was laid off from his job. I have to wonder if perhaps Jim lost his job because he kept making simple mistakes like calling people by the wrong name.

Biden Calls Palin's Criticism 'Mildly Dangerous'
WASHINGTON — Democratic vice presidential candidate Joe Biden said Wednesday that Republican rival Sarah Palin is injecting fear and loathing into their campaign with her criticism that Barack Obama is friends with a terrorist.

Obama’s middle name - not in the talking points!
It’s a war of words. Whether it is Sarah Palin’s overuse of the word “maverick,” John McCain’s anguish-inducing repetition of “my friends,” or the gaffe-laden potpourri emanating from Joe Biden, the words candidates say are always under the microscope.
Surrogates and supporters do best when they act like parrots – mimicking talking points rather than expressing a thought of their own. And actually, that’s fair. You don’t vote for spokespeople. You v
McCain to Biden: Too early to celebrate
In response to a Joe Biden email telling supporters that the “McCain campaign is on the ropes,” the McCain camp responded that it is too early to celebrate.
“Being an underdog is a role that John McCain relishes and with 26 days left I don’t think Joe Biden should pop the champagne just yet,” said McCain spokesman Ben Porritt. “We are confident that as people make their decisions they will choose John McCain, a maverick with a real record over Barack Obama —an unknown comm

Vice President Joe Biden Visits Baghdad
U.S. Vice President Joe Biden, on a previously unannounced visit to Baghdad on Thursday to meet Iraqi leaders, U.S. military commanders and troops, said he was optimistic about Iraq's future but much work remained. Biden's three-day visit comes after President Barack Obama appointed him to help coordinate Iraq policy as U.S. officials lay the groundwork for a full withdrawal of U.S. forces by 2012. "This is a moment when we have to make sure that the Iraqis don't take their eye off the ultimate...

Attack Dog Biden Introduced As McCain
Former Republican turned Barack Obama backer Jim Piccillo made quite the gaffe when introducing vice-presidential hopeful Joe Biden today. Said Piccillo: "…No matter your party, gender, race, or religion, please help me today in welcoming the next vice president of the United States: John McCain!" How embarrassing!
The real Joe Biden, meanwhile, has spent much his day taking on Republican running mate Sarah Palin, who did nothing this week when her supporters suggested Obama be killed and c
Britney Spears continues being allowed in public
Britney Spears was allowed in public again today and took her kids to the London Zoo. Of course, there's really no cause for concern considering England is an island and therefore easily quarantined. Back me up, Pentagon, and don't act like you didn't go to DEFCON-3 after seeing her panties yesterday. I have my sources who I'll simply refer to as "Joe Biden, yes, the real one."

Obama introduces Biden as running mate
Presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama introduced Sen. Joe Biden to the nation as his running mate Saturday, telling supporters that he is "a leader who is ready to step in and be president."
Least Memorable Candidate Kicks It Up a Notch
Joe Biden likes a good chuckle as much as the next guy. Just because he's the least well-known candidate on the campaign trail (and is sometimes confused for John McCain) doesn't mean the senator for Delaware can't take a good rib-tickling when it comes to Jason Sudeikis' impression of him on last week's SNL episode.
In fact, Biden likes the clip so much when they played it for him this morning on GMA, it starts to freak out Diane Sawyer in a big way and she had to cut to commerci
Number Ones Are Number Two
The numbers are in for last night's debate and the winner is... still Joe Biden and Sarah Palin. John McCain and Barack Obama drew over 63 million viewers last night, according to Nielsen, but that was still under the nearly 70 million pairs of eyeballs attracted by their running mates Thursday night. (All three debates outdrew the 46.7 million for the second Bush-Kerry debate in 2004.)
Part of the difference can be attributed to the fact that Thursday is the most-watched night of TV in the week (the firs
