If they held Joe Biden to the Sarah Palin standard, new casts would begin every hour on the hour, with details of his latest gaffe. And now we have him calling an audience dull. That’s a sure way to get them out to vote next month:
“You’re the dullest audience I’ve ever spoken to,” at which point he got applause and laughs. “Do you realize how many jobs Wisconsin lost? It’s staggering!”
Until we see the tape, we won’t be able to tell if they’re laughing with him — or at him. Still, can you imagine what the talking heads would be saying if Sarah Palin said such a thing — even in jest?
In what way is any crowd that freely assembles to listen to what Joe Biden has to say not dull? And why wouldn’t Joe Biden be the man most qualified to recognize the duller and dullest among the dull?
So, so sad. How can you blame the audience if the listeners are bored? A mirror, Joe — a mirror.
Someone who’s very antigay but has moments of brilliance, comments on my blog site alot. She had some things to say about the 100 Most Powerful Women story, which placed Sarah Palin behind Lady Gaga and Ellen:

It was really funny. It’s amazing the lengths people go to, to minimize the power of Ms. Palin.
Well it WAS at a fundraiser for Tom Barrett (Dem candidate for WI Gov), it’s hard for his supporters to get too excited about his failing campaign.
