"You got the first mainstream white woman who is articulate and bright and clean and pretty"
I can only imagine the reaction if Obama had said this about Hillary Clinton.

1. ROFL!
Poor Biden. Honestly, that's on a par with the whole Macaca thing, isn't it? He should save himself some aggro and just drop out now.

4. Biden is clearly a racist
this is not his first gaffe and wont be his last. No wonder most senators have no problem voting to bomb brown people around the world. Obama is the first articulate black man? How disgusting.

6. I hate to say it,, but these guys are developing...
their own stereo-type and it's a doozy. How to condense the thoughts and feelings into any appropriate 'label' is probably for minds far greater than mine. But the repetitious occurrences of pompous uber-wealthy white men speaking down to the populace begs a new meme, sans the bogus party alliance.

8. Why does an REM song come to mind?
Shiney Happy People....

The phrasing sounded a tad condescending - and dismissive (whether that was the intention or not). Seriously, the title words (and chorus) of that song came to mind.

Maybe the Senator ought to go back to plagerizing? (j/k)

He sure did a snarky job dismissing all of the candidates in that piece. Poor form, Sen. Biden.
