The AP is reporting that Vice President-elect Joe Biden tried to silence Jill Biden during a taping of the Oprah Show at the Kennedy Center this afternoon after she let it slip that Joe was offered two jobs in a potential Obama administration back during his negotiations with Obama back during the summer of 2008. The jobs were that of Vice President and Secretary of State.
The vice president-elect tried to hush his wife as soon as the words came out of her mouth, with a loud “shhh!”
My recollection is that this is not news. I remember this being reported after Joe was selected as Vice President, and I think Joe himself even talked about it. I supposed he wanted to “hush” his wife now because he doesn’t want any division between himself and the incoming Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
