Biden Shoots Self In Foot... Again

Dick Cheney is not needed for this blunderbuss job: Joe Biden (D-Del) knows how to take a shotgun to his presidential chances all on his own. It's not Biden's first verbal gaffe, but it's probably the most egregious and least forgivable. According to Drudge, Biden talked about Barack Obama in an interview today:

'I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy...'

If Mr. Biden thought that any black leaders would be helping him reach their constituencies, he can pretty much forget it.

The full story is here. Biden rips into all the Democratic frontrunners in the kind of rant one might expect from a drunken town meeting member.
