Biden: ‘I Got Beat Like a Drum by Barack Obama’

Published



At an apparently unscheduled stop at a Boys and Girls Club in Sioux City, Iowa, Vice President told a group of about 75 boys about the 2008 election. “I never intended to get involved in politics and become vice president,” Biden reportedly said, according to the pool report. The pool reporter then writes, “[Biden] said his 2008 run for the presidency ended badly.”

How badly? “I got beat like a drum by Barack Obama,” Biden admitted to the group of boys.
