Biden fires up NH Dems, rips GOP
By Jordan Fabian - 05/26/11 06:00 AM ET
Vice President Biden on Wednesday tore into Republicans while saying that conditions favor President Obama's reelection in 2012.
Speaking at a fundraising dinner for the New Hampshire Democratic Party, Biden lambasted Republicans for supporting Rep. Paul Ryan's (R-Wis.) budget proposal, which Democrats say would essentially privatize Medicare and gut crucial government programs.
"This isn’t your father’s Republican Party. This is a different breed of cat," Biden said, according to the Nashua Telegraph.
Biden also claimed Obama's strength is becoming more evident, referencing his decision to authorize a raid to capture or kill Osama bin Laden.
“I said, 'wait another seven days for information' ... (Obama) said 'go,'" Biden admitted. "The American people now have a crystal clear picture of how strong and decisive our president is, and that’s the last piece of the puzzle that had to be put in place."
