Joe Biden on GOP: "The Silence Was Deafening!"

"It's not so much what I heard in the Republican convention, when you heard John speak last night, not so much what I heard when I heard part of what the governor had to say, the vice presidential candidate -- it's what I didn't hear: the silence, the silence of the Republican Party was deafening," Biden said, the applause of the Langhorne crowd starting to build with each word.

"It was deafening on jobs, on health care, on environment, on all the things that matter to the people in the neighborhoods I grew up in!" roared the Scranton-born senator as the audience rose to their feet.

"Ladies and gentlemen," he continued, his voice lifting over the cheers. "Their America is not the America I live in, they see something different than I see.

"Do any of you recall either candidate on the Republican ticket utter the phrase middle class?" he asked the crowd.

Having watched both the RNC & DNC conventions, the GOP seemed more intent on attacking the messengers rather than the message. Something right out of a Karl Rove playbook. Do we want four more years of Karl Rove politicians?

So true, he was right and I didn't hear anything either about issues. Obama had a plan...where was John M?

He said exactly what I was thinking last week. Well done, Mr. Biden.

Republicans don't want to talk about the issues facing us because they have no solutions that benefit the Middle Class. Republicans are all about protecting Corporations and the Rich. The Middle Class is disappearing in this country and the Republicans don't give a damn!
