thank you for putting this footage on the internet! i am quite glad it did not become lost or became something left behind in the 'brush of unknown.' :)

It's hard to win an election, or a debate, when your closing statement boils down to "I don't want to look to the future. Let's look backwards."

Joe Biden really took the high, sincere road in answering about his weaknesses and his opponent's strengths. That's a relief after the whiny answer his opponent gave.
