5. Apparently Joe Biden hasn't held one either.. Not that I think the press would

care.. they already know what he has to say.. he has the experience and ideas that they've heard about for a very long time.... Oh, and did Biden really say that the govt shouldn't buy AIG? Or did he say something more along the lines, "I don't think its the best idea, but we have to see what's going on with more details?" I saw ole' Matt try to nail this onto Obama... AND I hardly doubt that Obama sits around watching Biden and his surrogates all day.
