you know, joe biden's thing is he is average joe from scranton. i think in that way, he was very successful, very persuasive tonight. >> brit. e >> in you know, he spoke with a certain conviction. it's always difficult to assess while watching in the hall, even though we can see tv screens, how it's playing on television of but it did see seem to me, the times that roused the audience, he seemed to be shouting and angry. anger is something you have to deal with very carefully on television. if you come through as -- as he seemed he may have, as an angry, angry politician, i am sure that goes down well and makes the case effectively. that would be my thought. >> let me ask you -- >> go ahead. >> we heard from senator kerry and vice-president biden the tribute to the troops, specifically. >> that was an opening left wide by the fact that mitt romney did not mention that in his speech. there were plenty said about it in tampa generally. but that was an opening that they took advantage of and it was politically shrewd to do so. >> what do you make of

today's snapshot, joe biden in a diner. now for some, this is just another example of the loveable lug. that is mr. heartbeat away. i see it as a metaphor for the state of our country. here you have jocular joe, representing the happy-go-lucky administration. it's what me worry on cealis. job numbers are irrelevant when you have rhetoric and scarlet johanson by his side. the lady in his lap? that is the media. as long as they avoid direct eye contact they can sit there all day. charlie mccarthy to edgar burgen. you wonder where joe's hand is at. what about these guys? that is the american people and their worried faces say it all. the country is in crisis and you're doing this in front of everyone. have you lost your marbles? maybe there is an explanation. remember clint eastwood said about obama, the seat is vacant. biden is saying so what? empty chair has its privileges or he's discovered a new jobs plan. furniture. or maybe biden was practicing playing santa claus. you know the fairy tale guy that brings you free stuff w

before the president speaks, we'll hear from vice president joe biden. sources say he'll give an inside look in how the president made some of the toughest decisions he's faced. we know his vp has a bit a tendency to go off script. but the analysts say they expect him to stick to the teleprompter on a night as big as this one. we're hearing gabby giffords is here in charlotte. her staffers say she'll lead the crowd in the pledge of allegiance later tonight. the main event of this night and this week, for that matter, is president obama's acceptance speech. now we're getting a preview of what he plans to say. according to his campaign, he'll call this election the clearest choice of any time in a generation. he'll also say they tell us, i won't pretend, the path i'm offering is quicker easier. i never have. you didn't elect me to tell you what you wanted to hear. you elected me, he will say, to tell you the truth, and the truth is it will take more than a few years for us to solve challenges that have built up over decades. his republican rival, mitt romn

i love joe biden. i do love him. he's a good guy and provided us a heck of amount of material for this show this year and i'm sure he will be self-deprecating and deliver great lines hopefully like this one from earlier in the year. >> timeless advice from teddy roosevelt. speak softly and carry a big stick. end of quote. i promise you the president has a big stick. >> dana: i laugh about that every day. >> greg: i don't get it. could you explain it to me? >> dana: no. you have to figure it out on your own. >> andrea: that might be the most effective line to reach out to single women. >> dana: one of my favorite days in politics. >> bob: anyway. >> dana: i am looking forward to it. it will be good. >> bob: i think he will essentially be introducing the president. joe when he is on script, i would suspect he will be kept on script, but somebody said cal thomas my partner, column said that biden is the clint eastwood of the democratic national convention. i don't think it is going to be like that. it stays on point. ma

when joe biden goes too far, y'all back in chains? that is joe being joe. we know he is a little unstable. let's be honest. you can't control him. this is joe biden's job, that is dispense propaganda. >> heather: ford makes a good point. this is a question i have. do we not expect more from the vice president? is it a case he has done this so much that we lowered our expectations for vice president. we kind of expect him to make these comments? >> that is absolutely right. >> there are few things. first of all, i think the joe biden is the same joe biden that the president picked as his running mate in 2008. you can't say the same thing about mitt romney. mitt romney is in his sixth or seventh rebooted and joe biden is somebody who loves american people. mitt romney in that case and other times seems contentious of the very people he wants to represent. >> you can spin it any way you want it. >> i have some data, and polls, we collect polls all over the country and outlets and joe biden currently the average, he is more favorable than unfavorable and so is

the reason is joe biden and barack obama are not in this aren a. they will not show up until thursday and they will show up and only be in the football stadium. here in the arena why where they will do business with michele obama and wednesday with bill clinton. not nearly the same level of security that we are going to see thursday on the football stadium. >> will mitt romney be the bump in the polls and will it be a 6-8 point bump? >> there is one tracking poll out today and inicates a 5 point bump. he went in the convention two points behind obama . how's about three points ahead. that is only one tracking poll. i don't think anybody will get the bounce they used to. back starting in recently as 2004, you would have an outparty and the party that didn't have the incumbent president in july and it was a full month until the incumbent party held theirs and it was time for people to listen to thes and momentum to build up. with the republicans they held it and ended it thursday night and they are already here in charlotte already and it starts tues

, delaware's own joe biden, our vice president a relentless focus on middle class, high quality jobs. expanding access to health care. making our financial system more fair and transparent. fighting for the very things that have made the american middle class so strong in the past. that is message that resonates with folks looking for work. folks who are looking for better work and looking to hang on to jobs they have. we have had 29 straight months of job growth. bill: some of those workers say the keystone pipeline was a greatp example how you create good union jobs. i have 10 seconds left. give you last word. >> in my home state of delaware we came together to reopen a oil refinery to restore hundreds of union jobs. in general the platform of the democratic party is strongly embraced about organized labor because it is about fighting for our middle class. bill: senator, thank you throughout the week. chris cans, thank you, sir. martha? martha: there is a lot of buzz about this. the relationship between president obama and the clintons has as you been a very complex one. word a form

>>neil: in the meantime you will play paul ryan for joe biden, practicing for the debate. how is that going? >>guest: well, look, we're going to get started in around of -- in earnest soon. i know how paul likes do present those issues on national policy and foreign policy, and i could be of some help. >>neil: republicans are salivating that the vice president is a loose canon. you think republicans are getting ahead of themselves. >>guest: the vice president speaks from the heart. he is the first to say there are times when he has misspoken but what the american people necessity from joe biden he may have the title "vice president," but he is the guy who always is looking out for the average joe. he is known for that. he will come through. >>neil: thank you, congressman . >> the thinking was being in a right-to-work state so soon as it did after losing a crucial recall election in wisconsin, unions could be a little bit more humble, a little bit more quiet coming to the convention. that consensus was wrong, very strong. far from being in retreat mode, unions are energized

i was thinking why is it so much softer here, and the reason is because joe biden and barack obama are never going to be in this arena. they're not going to show up here till thursday and they're going to show up and only be in the football stadium. so, here the at the arena where they are he' going to do business, news, with michelle obama, wednesday, as we mentioned with bill clinton, not nearly the same level of security as we're going to see on thursday at the football stadium. >> mike: will mitt romney get a bump in the polls and if so, the traditional 6, 8, 10 point bump? >> well, there's one tracking poll out today and an indicates about a 5 point bump that he went into the convention about 2 points behind obama, and he's now about 3 points ahead. but that's only one tracking poll. you know, i don't think anybody's going to get the bounce that they used to get. remember, it's back starting in-- as recently as 2004, you'd have the out party, the party that didn't have the incumbent president would hold the convenes in july and a whole month until the incumbent party held their co

i thought joe biden's came off more genuine and much more, i don't know, just real. specific examples and anecdotes. i likeed it. i thought it was familiar and nice. with obama i was expecting something really special, and spectacular. i remember when i first saw him speak at the dnc years ago and everybody was so moved by him. now what is he going to do? no substance there whatsoever. his wife gave a better speech than him. biden gave a better speech than he did. clinton by far, gave a better speech than him. why did he do that? he set himself up for a fail and gave no one a reason to vote for him again and yet change their mind. >> dana: did you see the excuses today, president obama decided to dial down the speech a little bit so it wouldn't as good, or some criticism. that was a doozie. book one thing for sure some people listen because gallup is out today as i said before, he is six points ahead of romney. listen to this, whether you like what obama said or not, i think he should have been more specific, but you look at him and put mitt romney next to him and re

i don't know, that was strained conjuelty that's a disto joe biden. >> joe biden normally would have spoken this night. he is not the most super star surrogate speaker or the kibitzer in chief as clinton. what clinton can say on behalf of barack obama, is he going to make the case that barack obama shares the same philosophy about the economy that bill clinton had and which led to clinton's success and if you just give barack obama more time it will produce similar results in essence. >> bill: all right. i don't know. the two of them ran a totally different economic profile. all right. well, we will listen. >> very true. >> bill: okay, roberts. we asked to you try to figure out and we had gotten word earlier that it was barack obama who ordered the changes made in the platform that god be reinserted, the word. and that jerusalem be inserted into it would be the capital of israel. is that true? is that what you found out. >> yeah, that's absolutely true. at one point barack obama said why was the word god taken out of the platform in the first place in the more difficult question to a

joe biden said there are different answers on it. they haven't had a answer on it and it's kind of surprising it's gotten the week off to a bit of a stumble. >> how are they going to sell the economy for the american people? >> go after mitt romney attack him. he doesn't have a plan goitsing to get worse under him. i think obama is going to time the george w. bush and we see republicans trying to tie obama to jimmy carter. one term and that is it. >> he, i would think that what voters have to look at them sexes whether or not they think things have improved with president obama and whether or not they're not satisfied whether they think it will get better. >> that is the problem is that president obama urging patience. and we've seen wave elections. >> if a trend is encouraging you can be patient if you think it's a platt trend or should be better, then, it's hard to sell patience. >> yes. that is why jobs number report on friday is going to be important as well as friday before election day. >> well, i think the problem is that we d
