Biden was the most inscrutable choice, ever, for VP. Instead of "change" Obama brought out an old hack, who had trouble with both truth telling, even during the campaign, and with inserting his foot into his mouth. Oh, to know what kind of negotiation that was, to get him on the ticket---except, perhaps to allay terrified old white guys who feared a woman and a (half)black man on the ticket would bring on the apocalypse. #joebiden
apparently I am in the minority, but I love Joe Biden! I think he's like the lovable Steve Urkel of the White House. He comes in, says stupid stuff, knocks shit over, and is like "Did I do that?" Oh Joe. #joebiden
Joe Biden is everything thats wrong and fucked up with congress. This dope won his seat in the Senate when he was 29 and has never had another job until being VP. He has learned about as much about how the country works from his perch in DC as Palin learned about Russia from staring at it. He is walking proof we need term limits.
And he doesn't drink. I don't trust people who don't drink, unless they've already been alcoholics. #joebiden
@Motoko Kusanagi: From where I'm standing, it would appear to be a positive correlation. It's a good day when I get tripped up by fewer than five unresponsive scripts, infinite waits for comments to load or what have you. #joebiden
@Motoko Kusanagi: Oh yeah, I didn't mean to quibble. I agree that the site gets fancier all the time, but features seem to break often. I should have added before that it could well be my OS and browser causing headaches most readers don't experience. And in all fairness, I haven't been reading long enough to judge contemporary content against the past. #joebiden
Not sure what point you're trying to make, Amrita... that you think Cheney's worldview makes some sense? That Cheney was initially popular, before everything he did brought his popularity rating to a low of 28%? I love it that Biden is willing to call a moron a moron. This is a ridiculous post. #joebiden
Oh, and if you're trying to poke fun at Vice Prez Biden for weeping during the debate when he spoke about his first wife and baby daughter who died, well then, that's just messed up. #joebiden
@Conchie Birdie: One might argue that it was the worst kind of political hackdom for him to bring them up expressly to show his "empathy" side and try to squeeze a tear out of his plastic-surgeryized eye slots. #joebiden
I'm absolutely NOT a supporter of ANYTHING Dick says... but, Good Lawwd, Biden, Bin Laden will always BE a part of the issue. I'm sorry, I guess if you had the prez saying this I could understand... but, uh, Joe? Nope.
That being said, why are we posting crap from Fox News anyway - I thought we weren't supposed to take this stuff seriously? #joebiden
I'll watch the sixth season of PR begrudgingly but my heart belongs to Iman and PR Canada. I can't wait for Season 3 to come (someday soon, I hope). No one, and I mean no one, can eviscerate a designer with as much panache as Iman.
I cannot wait to watch Santino. If they just played him quipping for 120 minutes I would just stare and drool and laugh the whole time. Um, not in a sexual way.
Oh, I'm glad to know that I'm not the only one who did these comparisons. I came up with different results though. I guessed that phot #1 goes with Althea , photo #3 goes with Shirin and photo #5 goes with Johnny. I'm willing to wait until the end to find out for sure.
@OldTowneTavern: The collection for #1 had the dominatrix look of black leather (really shiny wool) that Althea is associated with. The collection for #3 is scattered yet some pieces require great skill which I associated with someone young yet well trained (good for "I was the best in my class" Shirin), and the collection for #5 was heavy on coats and "smocking" which lead me to Johnny, but come to think of it, there is a lot of black which Johnny doesn't do. So, I'm backing away from him.
Oh, and there's a 2-hour "all-star" competition at 8 pm Eastern (before the show, which starts at 10). It'll including folks like Santino Rice, Uli Herzner and Mychael Knight. So join us and live-blog that too!
A new commenter live blog will premiere on Gawker this evening. Post comments on tonight's Project Runway episode while you watch! You may even win a T-shirt!
Ok, I lied about that last part ... you won't win a T-shirt. But join us anyway!
@MisterHippity: Why can't there be a t-shirt? We can all run down to Mood and grab some cotton jersey and make a shirt that embodies the best live blogging of the night. Guaranteed to be a hot tranny mess.
Carbs for Wintour's assistants? Never! Have a Cobb salad with no dressing and their option of sparkling or still water and maybe you'll have a prize for them.
@tribalpottery: Precisely. Anyone caught eating a pizza anywhere within 100 miles of the conde nasty building will be mercilessly humiliated by mean girls and very mean boyz for the rest of their natural lives or until they quit their job in shame and go work at a chain restaurant in jersey as a bus person. Please. The prize needs to be a little panther from Cartier. The ones with the emerald eyes. Reallly.

WeepyVP JoeEither this new crop of staff writers is utterly fucked, or the editorial direction has taken a nosedive, or both.
Is there some negative correlation between the quality of stories and the quality of AJAX/CSS? #joebiden

and sometimes they make you go to the library to do research and the librarians will be mean to you if you are haughty and ask them stupid questions
