I bet I can come up with more, too. So again, this nit wit:
is at least as dumb as Palin.

Like him or not, Biden has been a player in DC for over 40 years, and has been in the national spotlight for over 25 years. You don't last in DC that long and get to do the stuff he has done if you aren't capable. You may not like his politics, but he is at least as competent as your average politician (which isn't saying much).
Show me someone who has been a major player in D.C. for over 40 years, and I'll show you one of the most corrupt sonofabithches in the US of A.

Who said anything about "major"? And what does this have to do with the argument at hand?

And Palins not smart enough to be corrupt. For Christ's sake she wasn't even smart enough to see ambush questions like "what papers do you read" coming down the pike...

Nice try, everybody knows that Biden is great at putting his foot in his mouth, in fact, I think Geico used it in a commercial. You'll have to do better than a 'spanos imitation.

I'm basing my opinion on their overall body of work, not just some clips. I'm more focused on content of what they are trying to say, you're hung up on minutiae.

Palin began wilting the moment she got exposed to the national spotlight. The more she speaks, the worse she sounds and I'm not talking sound bites, I'm talking content; she doesn't know what she is talking about. She may have been fine as an obscure Gov. of Alaska, but she can't handle the big stage. And before you blame the liberal media for doing a hatchet job on her, keep in mind that the same media did the same thing to Bush and Cheney and they could take the heat.

I don't think Palin is literally a moron, but she is not ready for prime time.
And its no different with Biden. Behind the scenes as a Senator and a VP is one thing. Being in front of a TV camera as a VP he has been a disaster. If Hillary doesn't run because of health issues I pray the donks nominate Biden for 2016. As the POTUS candidate and POTUS you are out in front of TV cameras 10x a VP is, and Biden would literally be putting his foot in his mouth on a weekly basis. Look how much Bush and Obama have, and it would be 10x with Biden. Palin too.

The conks won't nominate Palin, and the donks won't nominate Biden, because neither one of them will ever be ready for prime time in front of TV cameras every day...

You're still hung up on minutiae. They only spend a small fraction of the time in front of a TV camera. Sound bites are only a small part of this "beauty pageant". The contestants may be foot to foot in the mouth portion of the competition, but Palin runs away with it after that.

You are right about neither of them ever getting nominated for POTUS. Both should fade to obscurity.

Thats not minutiae. They may only spend 1% of their waking hours speaking in front of the TV camera. But that combined with anytime they are saying anything in public (even with no TV camera present, almost every swinging dick has a smart phone with videocamera) is probably the biggest factor the mass of voters judge them by, esp in the era of TV & the internet.

We're not arguing about which one is electable, we agree that neither one is. We're arguing who is the bigger "idiot". It takes more than sound bites to "win" that award.

Biden is the gift that keeps on giving. :rofl:

Bloomberg: Biden’s Gavel Gaffe in Poland
Vice President Joe Biden wandered a little off course on a trip down memory lane today.

“Fifteen years ago, I was honored, as the chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee, to lead the fight for Poland’s admission into NATO,” Biden said in Warsaw during a visit designed to reassure America’s Eastern European allies in the wake of Russia’s move to take control of Crimea.

The only problem: Biden wasn’t chairman back then.

It was Sen. Jesse Helms, a North Carolina Republican, who guided the committee and launched the floor debate on granting NATO accession to Poland, Hungary and the Czech Republic. Biden did lead minority Democrats in approving the treaty resolution, after having initially expressed doubts about the political viability of expanding NATO.

“If we are really going to alienate the Russians,” Biden asked in January 1997, according to New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman, “what are we going to get for it?”

Biden went on to make the point that it needed more public discourse — which it got before he signed on — to have any chance of winning popular support.

“Right now, if I stand up and start talking with my constituents about the price, if I tell them, ‘We are about to extend our nuclear umbrella to Slovakia,’ I wonder how many people in Dagsboro, Del., are going to say, ‘Hey, that’s a great idea.’”

I haven't made making speeches/presentations/interviews my lifelong profession like he has. And not all of Bidens flubs were spur of the moment. Some of his stupidity was pre planned, like the shotgun comments....
