Biden praises prez, prays for Boston

Vice President Joe Biden made his way to two fundraisers in Boston this week, where he praised President Obama for having “a backbone like a ramrod” – particularly when it came to economic measures. “He makes a decision and moves on,” Biden said at the Fairmont Copley Hotel on Tuesday — where his remarks included a prayer for the Boston Red Sox. He said that one of his Secret Service agents is a Sox fan, adding that he worried if Tampa Bay beats Boston, “he’s going to be so damn miserable he will not jump in front of a bullet.”
