"Make no mistake about this, Hillary Clinton is as qualified or more qualified than I am to be vice president of the United States of America. Let's get that straight. She's a truly close personal friend and she is qualified to be President of the United States of America, she's easily qualified to be Vice President of the United States of America and quite frankly it might have been a better pick than me. I mean that sincerely, she's first rate."—Joe Biden, responding to a voter who said he was glad Biden had been chosen as Obama's running mate instead of Clinton.
Re: she might have been a better pick—at least Biden and I agree on something.
In all seriousness, that was a class move.
Also, in all seriousness, quoth Broce: "Watch the spin. it'll be 'Even BIDEN admits he isnt a good choice'." Sob.
