Interview in Florida! I thought it was hillarious when the news person asked him if Obama was a marxist and he got that deer in the headlights look and the best he could come up with was a palin like response "are you serious"?
Then came the second question and again the deer in the headlights look and a "who wrote those questions" like she's too dumb to come up with them herself? Way to go Joe
Then the campaign tells the network in so many words "you'll never get our canidates again"!
Why is that? Is it because good ole Joe wasn't thrown a softball by a MSM station?
Before all the obamacons get all revved up this is no different then when Katie (I'm hanging on to my job by a thread) Couric played "gotcha" with Sarah and gave her the deer in the headlights questions.
As for the MSM being in the tank for Obama, I've yet to see this Biden interview shown on any MSM news but you saw the Couric/Pailn interview many times.
What happened to fair play and HONEST news reporting of yesteryear?
I just saw our election office is now open for early voting so I guess it's time to go sharpen the pencil and write in for Ron Paul since there's no "none of the above" choices.
I thought Biden's response was completely appropriate. They were one-sided questions and Biden called the reporter out on it. No one needed to come to Biden's aid. Biden 2, Reporter 0.
If Katie asked the same kind of questions (which I don't believe she did - what do you read? is such a zinger!), Sarah should have responded like Biden did. Instead, she needed McCain to come sit with her in a follow-up interview for clarification. Couric 2, Palin 0.
Both of you are delusional, Biden answered her questions as directly as possible and did NOT run away from the interview, he simply isn't allowing them to interview his wife. HIS WIFE. How many interviews has Sarah Palin's husband done? I haven't seen any, and to be completely honest, I don't give a damn what he has to say. I'm not voting for wives and family members of the candidates, I'm voting for the candidates themselves.

While YOU haven't seen an interview with Sarah's husband he's done em...
I agree Biden answered the questions clearly and directly after reacting to them. The reason Palin made the news was because her answers were anything but clear and direct. The bailout is "helps those who are concerned about health care reform"?? What, Sarah?? "Putin rears his head"? WHAT??!!
It was an embarrassment. That's why it got MSM coverage.
As for asking the anchor "who wrote these questions," it's entirely appropriate. Most talking heads do not write their own questions. And often even follow-up questions are fed to them through an earpiece-- someone in a control room who isn't attractive or camera friendly may be doing all the thinking.
