Joe Biden is running for president -- Yes, I am! Yes, I am! How can you doubt me? -- which is sure to send shock waves of delight through the lethargic voting populace. And he comes up with a brilliant strategy for getting the millions of votes from people who would rather have an overreaching government than a place to buy things at reasonable prices:
On Wednesday, Biden headlined a news conference for a movement called Wake Up Wal-Mart.
"My problem is that I don't see any indication they care about the fate of middle-class people," Biden said.
Why Wal-Mart? Biden said it's because the retailer is the biggest.
I love this detail at the end of the story: "NewsChannel 8 asked Biden if he has ever shopped at a Wal-Mart. He said he has shopped there a couple of years ago. He recalled buying a wheelbarrow and has not been back since." I have a couple of ideas on what Biden might have needed a wheelbarrow for, but go ahead and do your own joke.
