The president is facing his worst crisis of his five-year tenure. So where is the first mate of the Obama administration, good ol’ Joe Biden?
The vice president is in Houston, Texas, and he’s flying to Panama Nov. 20., far away from the crisis, from the president and from media questions about Obamacare.
He was home in Delaware on Nov. 17 after spending the previous three days in a New York, North Carolina and Georgia. On Nov. 13, he joined President Barack Obama for a closed-door White House meeting with advocates of greater immigration.
He met with military commanders on Nov. 12, spent the weekend of Nov. 11 and 10 at home in Delaware, and met with veterans Nov. 9. He stumped for Terry McAuliffe Nov. 4, in Virginia’s gubernatorial race, warning voters that the GOP candidate was “extreme.”
He’s running for president in 2016, but running away from Obamacare in 2014.
The crisis is so bad that on Nov. 14, President Barack Obama defended himself by denying that he was stupid.
“I’m accused of a lot of things, but I don’t think I’m stupid enough to go around saying, this is going to be like shopping on Amazon or Travelocity a week before the website opens if I thought that it wasn’t going to work,” told a roomful of TV cameras and reporters.
That’s a real political crisis. But that day, Biden was 600 miles from Obama’s podium.
