Vice President Joe Biden told a crowd at a National Teacher of the  
Year reception that he's "been sleeping with a teacher for a long  
time, but it's always been the same teacher." APClose
Vice President Biden likes teachers enough to go to bed with one -  
literally.

Hosting a National Teacher of the Year reception at the Naval  
Observatory Monday night, Biden reminded a crowd of some 70 attendees  
just how intimately familiar he is with education.

"I've been sleeping with a teacher for a long time," Biden said,  
according to the pool report, alluding to his wife Jill. "But it's  
always been the same teacher."

Biden had a more serious message for the attendees, too, emphasizing  
that the White House has pledged billions to education to "create  
momentum for education in America."

"We've never made this kind of investment. And we've got to do this  
right," he said. "We've got to convince the American public that this  
is worth it."

The Obama administration has already handed out hundreds of millions  
of dollars in awards to two states - Tennessee and Delaware - that  
successfully competed to meet the standards of the White House's "Race  
to the Top" education initiative. The competitive grant program will  
continue to send funds to states that adopt methods of organization  
and assessment favored by the White House.

Jill Biden also spoke at the event, describing her decision to  
continue teaching at a community college after her husband took office  
as vice president, and credited the first lady for giving her some  
advice: "Michelle told me, 'You have to do it. You have to do what you  
love.'"
