[BklynChick]

9. he just mentioned Stephanie Tubbs Jones--her funeral is today

[blogslut]

11. Respect

An honorable woman, greatly missed.

[Withywindle]

13. That was sweet.

He's a class act. He probably feels bad about his big news stealing the spotlight, but he's had this planned for a long time. Maybe her family wants privacy over publicity anyway. I hope so.

[blondeatlast]

21. Going on the offense against what the opponents WANT to use against Biden--

but won't be able to!

[Lisa0825]

22. When Biden faced a personal tragedy, he went on to be a great Senator AND

to go home every night to be with his family. (implied within that is the fact that when McBush faced his own personal tragedy, he dumped his family instead)

[Catshrink]

27. Yep!

Which is the party of family values now?

[bdamomma]

28. Biden was never a Washington insider, he took that train home

every night to his family.


Biden does get it.

[blondeatlast]
