Howard fineman just said he ran across the stage today like a puppydog! I've heard Joe called a LOT of things, but NEVER a puppydog!

5. I didn't mean it was bad...it was STUPID! How many times have you seen
a puppy who fights and attacks? Puppies are loveable, cute, and very friendly! They don't usually fight back!

3. I thought that was cute!
Makes Biden kind of huggable. Heck I feel like giving him the biggest bear hug ever.

6. Hmmm....I like Joe too, and I'd give him a hug any time I could, but I sure don't see him
as any puppydog! I have 3 Bichons, amd I guarantee you, NONE of them would have ever fought or survived in an arena like politics! THAT's sparing time folks! Junkyard dog time, not puppydogs!

4. This is a game to many who have watched the drama come and go, and feel no responsibility.
Bemused, above it, and well paid.

7. Does that not insinuate that he is happily accepting being under Obama?
A type of insult given when someone acts like they are happy to be under the control of someone else. ex:"He just lapped up what he was saying like a little puppy dog." :shrug:

8. I didn't see it that way. To me it sounded like what I see in a puppy.
Happy, friendly, and goes along with anything! That's why I qustioned his use of the term!

9. Could be, and could also
mean he was clumsy in his running the way a puppy is when they fall over their own feet or ears when they are long. You can take it to mean anything you want I guess, but since I didn't hear what he said personally, I will take your understanding of it.

10. I'll take it to mean he ran across the stage with youthful exuberance
I thought it was great, Biden was juiced. And then he went from a puppydog to a bulldog. Love Joe.

12. Because he is a panderer and will be submissive if it benefits him n/t

13. I don't think he meant that badly. He was sort of rhapsodizing about
Biden's youthfulness and energy. In contrast to McCain, especially.

He seemed quite taken with Biden to me.
