Huff Post reports:
Obama surprised his No. 2 after their weekly lunch Wednesday at the transition office in Chicago. According to staff, Obama presented Biden-- a Delaware senator with decades of foreign policy experience -- with a dozen cupcakes decorated with candles and teased, "You're 12 years old!"Today, Joe is back in Delaware celebrating his birthday while Barack holds private meetings in the Windy City. No public events are scheduled for either of them, but Rahm is meeting with Republicans in the House and Senate on the Hill.
Staff reported that Biden, ever astute in the art of politics, laughed at the his boss's joke. He responded: "Maybe in dog years!"
Obama led the rest of the staff in song, then handed over some Chicago-themed gifts: a White Sox cap, a Bears cap and a bucket of Garrett's popcorn, a hometown favorite.
