Biden: Americans Want " Sleepover With People They Like!"
(CBS)
(CHARLOTTE, N.C.) - Joe Biden came up with an interesting metaphor tonight.
When telling the story of how his granddaughters had a slumber party with Barack Obama's daughters during the week of the Democratic National Convention, Biden equated it to what he says Americans want.
"I believe that's a metaphor, a metaphor for what the country is looking for. They're looking for a sleepover with people they like!"
