Can’t wait to crack open a bottle of this on November 8 :D
VP Joe Biden was on Face The Nation, and talked about double standards Hillary faces
“I get all of this credit for being authentic, and you know, and now even Biden gaffes are now, you know, ‘Biden tells the truth,’ kind of thing,” Biden said in a wide-ranging interview with CBS’ “Face the Nation,” taped Thursday before the news of the FBI’s renewed interest in Clinton’s emails. “But, I’m a guy. I go out, and if I start talking about my Beau and I get filled up, my son who died, they say, ‘Well, he’s just a good decent father, honorable man.’ If she were to do that, you’d have a chorus of, ‘She’s playing the woman card here. She’s crying.’
“Hillary said herself, she said, ‘Look, I’m not that good a candidate.’ ... I think she said, ‘I’m not Bill or Barack,’’ Biden said. “And a lot of it has to do with personal style. And I do think … she is more measured and she makes fewer mistakes than I make or most people I know. But I just think it’s more--it doesn’t go to her integrity or honesty. It goes to her style.”
