6:23 p.m.: Obama explains that he is putting Vice President Joe Biden in charge of a ‘tough, unprecedented oversight effort’ of the fiscal stimulus plan. ‘Because nobody messes with Joe.’
Biden breaks into a huge grin, Nancy Pelosi stands to applaud the Veep. Weird moment of humor because it almost sounds patronizing. Biden does not seem to mind and the crowd eats it up.
