Biden assures high school student Romney will not be 'put down

Campaigning in Minneapolis today Vice President Joe Biden stopped by South High School to greet the football team. After a brief introduction of himself Biden asked for questions.

From the pool report:

[S]enior Tysean Wallace raised his hand.

“So, are you and Obama going to put Mitt Romney down?” he asked.

Biden laughed. “The answer is, just because the way the press is, I will rephrase your question. Because if we said ‘put down,’ I’m going to hear the headlines now. ‘Biden says Obama’s going to [have Romney] put down.”

“I think we’re going to win this race,” Biden assured Wallace.
