I missed this when it happened a couple of weeks ago. If David Duke called McCain the Messiah, I'm sure it would have been front page material for the New York Times.
"Mark my words," Biden told donors at a Seattle fund-raiser Sunday night.
"It will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy. The world is looking. We're about to elect a brilliant 47-year-old senator president of the United States of America.
"Watch. We're going to have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy".
Madeline Albright has called Biden's warning about an inevitable crisis if Obama is elected president a "statement of fact." But the key thing to remember about Biden's comments are not that he merely predicted a crisis -- I'm sure you can find clips somewhere of Republicans saying the same -- but that Biden specificially said it would be "a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy." In other words, a crisis that would otherwise not have occured will happen now merely to test Obama. So according to Biden, by voting for McCain, you'd be sparing the country this manufactured international crisis."
There are many references to her comment wherein she AGREES with Biden.
