Biden compares 'John McLane' to Bush
—
From NBC's Mike Memoli CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- This is one comparison John McCain won’t mind. As Biden tried to tie McCain to President Bush this morning, he slipped and referred the Republican nominee as “ John McLane ." He immediately recognized the mistake, and tried to roll with it. “I don’t recognize him anymore. I used to know him well,” he said, before acknowledging it was “a bad joke.” The crowd laughed politely, anyway. All kidding aside, as Biden would say, he ...

McCain will only Diehard
Jonathan Martin's Blog — Unintentional irony and flattery from Joe Biden today. John McLane, of course, was Bruce Willis in Diehard Mike Memoli: CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- This is one comparison John McCain won’t mind.  As Biden tried to tie McCain to President Bush this morning, he slipped and referred the Republican nominee as “John McLane."

Hot Air » Top Picks — ... Anyone think this comparison will bother John McCain?  It’s certainly not going to bother Bruce Willis: As Biden tried to tie McCain to President Bush this morning, he slipped and referred the Republican nominee as “John McLane.” He immediately recognized the mistake, and tried to roll with it. “I don’t recognize him anymore. I used to know him well,” he said, before acknowledging it was “a bad joke.” The crowd laughed politely, anyway. First Barack Obama will get pushed around on the international stage, and now McCain is a Die Hard.  There’s only one way to respond to that ...

Yippie Kay Yay, Joey Biden.
RedState: Conservative News and Community — ... PS: The title, of course, is evocative of Biden's slip in referring to our nominee as "John McLane' - something too hokey for the McCain campaign itself to really try to push, so I'm sure that they're grateful that Biden did it for them. Biden then went on to watch a NASCAR joke that he probably didn't really understand anyway fall flat among a crowd that probably didn't follow the sport enough to find said joke funny. ...

Can I Ask A Question, Joe?
Right Wing Nation — ... Biden attempted to insult Johnny Mac — by calling him John McClane (the idiot reporter misspelled the character’s name). Well actually, that’s ascribing too much intelligence to Biden. What he did was mistakenly call John McCain “John McClane,” and then when he realized what he’d said, tried to turn it into an insult. ...
