I don't know if you caught Biden's reasonably accurate broadside on Rudy last night, "that a sentence for Rudolph W. Giuliani consists of a noun, a verb and 9/11.", What kind of an "official campaign response" is this:

As the pundits work to figure out who won the debate tonight, its pretty clear Rudy Giuliani was the real winner. It is increasingly apparent Rudy is the one the Democrats are most worried about running against in the general election.
Senator Biden’s comments were of particular interest. The good senator is quite correct that there are many differences between Rudy and him. For starters, Rudy rarely reads prepared speeches and when he does he isn’t prone to ripping off the text from others. And, Senator Biden certainly falls in to the bucket of those on the stage tonight who have never had executive experience and have never run anything. Wait, I take that back, Senator Biden has never run anything but his mouth.

Such a desperate attack from Senator Biden is to be expected considering I — Katie Levinson — have a better chance of becoming President than he does.

Any sentence that begins with "Wait, I take that back" belongs on dKos and not coming out of a candidate's campaign. Leave that kind of snark to the surrogates.

BTW, on the topic of the Dem Debate, I don't know if any of you watched it, but what is with their penchant of referring to each other like old drinking buddies. "Me and Joe", "Chris is right on this", "John said", etc. What the heck? How about a little respect for your offices? Is it asking too much to call a United States Senator, oh, I don't know, "Senator"? I know being a Democrat is all about sinking to the lowest common denominator, but come on...
