Remember when David Axelrod worked for Obama-Biden? Now, Axelrod works for CNN and you would figure he’d get a thrill down his leg for a dumbass like Joe Biden. I guess that isn’t the case, as after Biden promised to cure cancer if elected president, David Axelrod bashed Biden over the weekend as awkward and shambling which is probably the nicest thing one could say about the Biden debacle today.
| David Axelrod: Biden looked awkward, shambling |

H]e’s still the front-runner. But after his last, shambling week, the new question is “Can Biden hang on?”
…
When Biden was asked twice by a woman on the campaign trail whether he would support the repeal of Hyde, he gave her an unqualified yes. But when video of the exchange surfaced last week, his campaign said he had “misheard” the question and still supported the ban.
Twenty-four hours later, after drawing fire from opponents and pleas from supporters, Biden reversed field again and announced his opposition to Hyde.
Compounding the awkwardness of this flip-flop-flip were the post-mortem stories in which Biden’s staff at first appeared to take credit for his change of mind and then said he made the decision himself in the car en route to the dinner at which he announced it.
