Dave Weigel on Joe Biden

I don't know whether Dave Weigel understands what tone is, but here's his post about Joe Biden proudly proclaiming his state to be a slave state.

C'mon, Dave. The question was what credentials does Joe Biden have that would allow him to defeat Mark Warner and John Edwards in the South. One credential that Joe Biden cited was that Delaware was a slave state. When you talk about credentials, you're highlighting the things you're saying as positive things. It may not be very offensive to me, but it's a stupid thing to say and a Republican would never get away with saying such a boneheaded thing. Weigel can spin all he wants, but being as I've lived in Delaware for 5 years, saying that it's a Southern state is laughable. Hell, if you ask a Southerner, I'd bet not a one would consider Delaware part of the South.

Try again, Dave.
