Huckabee: Biden was like ‘an obnoxious drunk’ at debate

Add Fox News host Mike Huckabee to the list conservatives who are feigning astonishment at Joe Biden’s aggressive demeanor during Thursday night’s vice presidential debate.

“I thought that Joe Biden came across as a guy that you meet at a cocktail party or some political event, an obnoxious drunk who is loud and boisterous and interrupts every conversation,” Huckabee told Fox News host Bill Hemmer on Friday. “He is just the kind of guy you want to get away from as quickly as you can.”

“It was just boorish behavior for the first half,” the former Arkansas governor added. “I think at some point during the debate, he took Ritalin and he started calming down in the end. But it is not the kind of thing that is very helpful to Joe Biden and his image with voters in the heartland of America who are taught to be polite. And he just wasn’t.”

Hemmer suggested that Biden had started to feel entitled because he could “walk into any room in D.C. and the waters part for you.”

I wonder how he feels about Governor Christie? I don't see anything wrong with what Biden said or did yesterday evening . . . I mean - if it's okay for Good Guv'nah Doughboy . . . just sayin'.

You must have left an impresssion at that last party you and The Huckster attended.

Did he take off all his clothes and dance The Boogaloo on the tabletop again?

Republicans lie and cheat all the time and get pissed when someone calls them on it.
You do not let someone continue to lie until they are done, you call them on it as soon as it is out of their mouth or ass.
Republicans say you you need to be tough to show them you will not put up with shit and then whine when it is done to them.

I wish Repubs would stop that. Biden has had alcoholics in his family and does not drink, period. Our guy beat their guy and their whining is ridiculous. Didn't they tell us to not complain? Pot, kettle, black.
