>> not to mention. >> exactly. one last question on the specifics here. the president, himself, is planning to be very visible from all accounts, multiple campaign offense, the first planned press conference in a long while. is he still the democrats' best campaign asset or do democrats need somebody else out there who can throw sharper barbs than a sitting president is really allowed to? >> look, i love to see president obama out there. he loves giving the speeches. he is a great campaigner. we know that. but i have to say one of the reasons i was a big supporter of joe biden for the vice presidential position is because i always thought that biden could provide a real asset in a moment like this. look, don't get me wrong but joe biden has a sort of a reputation for being crazy joe and one of the best things about your crazy uncle at a family reunion is that he says the one completely honest thing that everybody is รง thinking, that none of the people with that actual filter will, in fact, say. so i'm a big fan of kind of deploying the crazy uncle joe strategy. send vice president biden out there. let him kind of get tough.
