A reader writes:

I have two teenage boys who love Joe Biden.  They call him "Joe Fucking Biden" with sincere respect and admiration! And by far the best and funniest piece we have ever read about him was when The Awl liveblogged the vice presidential debate with the sound turned off.  So funny.

Another reader questions Hirsh's take:

Biden the most influential VP?  Not until he starts two wars, shreds a few contsitutional amendments, leads cheers for torture, and gets away with shooting a hunting pal in the face.
