Joe Biden Hears Boos at Pittsburgh St. Patrick’s Day Parade

The White House got in its fair share of St. Patrick’s Day celebrations Saturday. Between President Barack Obama taking time to down a Guinness in Washington D.C. and Vice President Joe Biden participating in Pittsburgh’s St. Patrick’s Day parade, the reelection campaign may be aiming to mend fences with the enormous demographic of Americans who report Irish ancestry. If Biden’s reception during portions of the parade serve as a barometer of how the administration will do in the key swing state this November, President Obama may need the luck of the Irish to get four more years in the White House.

Seen waiving and jogging gingerly on the parade route, Vice President Biden’s entourage was loudly booed at points by some of the hundreds of thousands who turned out for the parade in Pittsburgh Saturday. WPXI reports that Biden spent part of his trip campaigning ahead of November’s election and part of his time enjoying himself.

I'm sure old slow joe thought they were booing someone else. It couldn't have been him-after all, he's got a high IQ (according to himself). He is delusional and lives in la-la land.

It looked like he was running away from the cars behind him so he wouldn't get run over.Maybe not, the louder the booing the faster he ran.He appears to be in good shape.
