Biden to appear on morning TV shows after second presidential debate

Vice President Biden will appear on the early-morning TV shows on ABC, NBC and CBS the day after the second presidential debate.

A campaign official confirmed Monday that Biden will appear on ABC's "Good Morning America," CBS's "This Morning" and NBC's "Today Show" Wednesday morning, the day after the debate.

The planned appearances on the three shows sharply contrast the Obama campaign during the day after the first presidential debate, which Mitt Romney is widely thought to have won. During that debate Obama aides appeared the next day on the morning shows, not Biden or other prominent pro-Obama legislators.

The second presidential debate will be at Hofstra University in New York in Hempstead, N.Y., on Tuesday. Unlike the first debate, the second one will be in a town-hall format, in which both Romney and Obama will be asked questions from the audience.
