Understatement of the decade.
Via Beltway Confidential:
Vice President Joe Biden told supporters he needs to “step it up” in this week’s debate with Paul Ryan in order to stop Mitt Romney, who defeated President Obama handily last week.
“In two days, when I shake Paul Ryan’s hand onstage before the vice presidential debate, his side will be halfway through a $23 million week-long ad blitz attacking Barack in 10 battleground states,” Biden said in a fundraising email. “The only way someone like Mitt Romney . . . beats someone like Barack Obama is if you and I don’t step it up when it really matters.”
