Maybe Joe Biden should just shut the hell up?

Ok, viagra sales viagra they won the election. Joe Biden can talk to the media again.

After being all but muzzled during the general election for a series of gaffes and mistakes, the incoming vice president is speaking to the media again.

He gave his first post-election interview yesterday to ABC’s George Stephanopoulos.

Bad news then

And no one can talk about dire circumstances better than he. Recall that during the campaign he came up with an interesting reason on why to vote for Barack Obama:

“We’re going to have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy,” the candidate said, imploring the crowd to “gird your loins.” Soon after that line, he was practically invisible on the campaign trail.

Bad news now

But it’s safe to talk again. And the circumstances are dire again. Now, though, his focus is on the economy.

His take? It’s bad. Bleak. Awful. He told the ABC host that he’s worried about the economy “absolutely tanking.”

Compare and contrast this to: “the only thing we have to fear, is fear itself.”
