Seven Kitchen Tables
Okay, I think every single commenter disagreed with my concerns about whether Obama and Biden hit hard enough on McCain's houses gaffe.
Well, just for the record, now that I've seen Biden's "kitchen table" comment replayed four times, twice each on MSNBC and CNN, I realize that I was wrong. In fact, the host on CNN actually laughed at the line -- which is perfect. Mock McCain.
That said, here it is (transcript below):
BIDEN: Ladies and gentlemen, your kitchen table is like mine. You sit there at night before you put the kids -- after you put the kids to bed and you talk, you talk about what you need. You talk about how much you are worried about being able to pay the bills. Well, ladies and gentlemen, that's not a worry John McCain has to worry about. It’s a pretty hard experience. He’ll have to figure out which of the seven kitchen tables to sit at.
