Oh, That Joe! (Number 2 in a Series)

August 29, 2008 5:45 PM

At the Windmill Ice Cream Shop in Aliquippa, Penn, Sen. Barack Obama, D-Illinois, asked his running mate if he was getting hard of soft ice cream.

"Let's see what we've got here," Obama said as he approached the counter.

"So," he said to Biden, "you decided to go with soft?"

"I'm getting hard," Biden said. "I'm a hard guy."

Chuckles all around as Obama orders his wife a small sundae.

The good ole boys at their best! I bet Michelle will be so proud that Biden got her husband hard.

Biden reminds me of an Irish cop I know and love--no matter how hard he tries, the words slip away. I think because he is so genuine, and such a good guy with a good heart, stuff like this actually endears him to many regular folk.

I find Biden's sense of humour endearing. He's not the usual bland spun politician.

It would have been funnier with Bob Dole around considering his past product endorsements.
