Jake Tapper keeps it going:
“1972 campaign,” Biden said, “I was a 29-year old kid nominated for president — excuse me, nominated for senator, nominated for senator, senator, from the state of Delaware.”
Next, Biden was hit by a coughing fit.“There’s a lot to talk about and uh, excuse me,” he said, stepping away from the podium to cough. “I made the mistake of actually grabbing a handful of peanuts before I walked out here, which you should never do I know.”
He goes on to speak of McCain’s hate of the religious ight This may sound silly, but some have speculated that Biden is doing this stuff on purpose. Not necessarily this one, since it was just a harmless misspeak. Perhaps Biden knows that Obama is wrong for America and he is doing his duty as a patriot to stop the guy from penetrating the white house.
