Creepy Obama campaign manager Jim Messina doesn’t just put the lotion on; he also puts the irrational cuckoo on.
His brilliant spin for why Joe Biden’s creeptastic smirk during the vice presidential debate rivals his own infamous smile? Uncle Joe is a “happy warrior.” Really.
Messina says Biden was a "happy warrior," says questions about his laughing is only because GOP worries Ryan lost

Messina called Biden 'a happy warrior.' Team Romney called him 'rude,' 'shocking,' 'odd.' http://t.co/ypdJUxyV

“Biden was a happy warrior tonight,” Obama campaign manager Jim Messina said. “Joe Biden was a happy warrior for the middle class.”
Still, was it appropriate for Biden to actually laugh while Ryan was speaking? “I think it was appropriate for him to show passion and have him be a happy warrior,” Messina said. “When the other side is spending their time talking about facial gestures and laughing, you know they had a bad night.”
Ah, yes. Totally “appropriate.” Because what happy warrior doesn’t grin and chuckle during a debate about the deadly attack on the U.S. consulate in Libya?
Jim Messina in spin room: Biden laughed b/c "he's a happy warrior for the middle class." That's y he laughed while Ryan talked about Libya?

Libs calling Biden "a happy warrior" sets records for euphemism. "Maniacal warbler" is more accurate.

Joe Biden characterizes himself as "happy warrior".Do warriors typically show overt signs of dementia & inappropriate laughter? Just asking!

Nor "happy." RT @toddstarnes Messina says Obama is a "happy warrior." To be honest, warrior wasn't the first word that came to my mind.

"A happy warrior for the middle class" Jim Messina – that's how they're explaining Joe Biden's lunacy tonight. They think we're idiots.

Sounds like the spin of a winning team!
Democrats wouldn't be pushing "happy warrior" spin if they thought how Biden actually acted was a winner.
