Biden's Kiss of Death

The accidental governor has enough problems what with his rock-bottom approval ratings and the likely challenge of Attorney General Andrew Cuomo. Now here comes Greasy Joe to finish him off.

The White House charged headlong into New York state's brewing Democratic civil war last night when loose-tongued Vice President Joe Biden offered Gov. Paterson a seeming endorsement for the 2010 gubernatorial race.

"Your once and future governor of the state of New York has been extremely generous to Barack and to me and has been a major part of us trying to put this economy back together," Biden said at a party fund-raiser with Paterson.

"And Governor, just as your state led in our election, it is our hope that your state leads us out of this mess we inherited. We've been dug into a pretty deep hole."

Still whining about "ineriting" a mess. Is there a statute of limitations on this? When do Biden and Bammy plan to put their Big Boy pants on and start behaving like adults?

I'm surprised Biden didn't crack any blind jokes.
