The always overly-friendly “Sheriff” Joe Biden is in New York City discussing infrastructure:

Biden thinks Cuomo has worked enough wonders with New York infrastructure to warrant a grand comparison:

Biden compares Lincoln to Cuomo: "He's like you, pal. He had vision."

Biden discusses Lincoln's dream of intercontinental railroad, then turns to @NYGovCuomo and says, "He's like you, pal. He had vision." #pals

Oh.MY.God RT @NYDNHammond Biden compares Lincoln to Cuomo: "He's like you, pal. He had vision."

Biden slipped as usual, this time by reminding the crowd about what percentage of “infrastructure” spending actually went toward infrastructure in the stimulus:

Biden inadvertently reminds us that only 5 percent of 2009 stimulus went into infrastructure, even tho billed as massive infra bill.
