Biden was being diplomatic. He's the pick. He's abundantly qualified. Now you watch--lesser "gaffes" have been pounced on (or invented wholesale) by the McCain campaign. They'll ignore this one because it doesn't play to the sexism narrative they're trying to hump these days.

Seemed like a stupid thing to say to me. I can see the ads now "Even Biden thought Obama's pick was wrong... and he was the pick."
But you're right this doesn't play well with the whole "they're sexist" BS the McCain camps being mining.
