"If I'm the nominee, Republicans will be sorry," said Biden, a Roman Catholic who ran for president in 1988. "The next Republican that tells me I'm not religious I'm going to shove my rosary beads down their throat."
Biden said that in most cases, Democrats have themselves to blame for losing in so-called red states such as Kentucky and Ohio.
"We have put up too many candidates who can't connect with middle-class Americans," he said. "In the last two (presidential elections), the Democratic Party has lost its base, the middle-class votes. ... And we have played into the hands of the Republicans. We've allowed so-called social issues to be so divisive."
State Sen. Julian Carroll, a Frankfort Democrat and former governor, agreed. He said the party has to seek out the voters it is losing to Republican candidates.
"If we define who we are, the middle class will vote Democratic again," Carroll said.

Religion isn't about shoving Rosary beads down peoples throats, Sinator Biden. I'm no Catholic, but in my opinion, Democrats posing as Christians are exposing their
Hypocracy in their rabid support of abortion, the homosexual agenda, and their lockstep support of the ACLU and it's scheme to ban God and Christianity from our lives, beginning in the first grade of school and continuing through college.
By all means, Sinator, reveal you Dem's ugly innards and evil agendas to the voters, and watch your anti-American party melt into nothing, faster than a snowball in hell.
America has never wanted what you are selling, Biden. You Dims with the willing assistance of the MSM, have survived this long on support from the beguiled.
The beguiled (thank God) are becoming the most endangered species in America.
Bye bye, Biden.
I've taken to listening to WDEL online in the afternoon, and instead of a piece on avian influenza, Biden came up......
OMG - I'm listening to Joe Biden trying to justify his rosary comment. he says it was inappropriate, but he is so angry at the right that use their rligion he culdn't help himself. that he never has invoked his religion but the right uses it constantly for recruiting for politics and he is not going to take it anymore.
I nearly gagged.............
Cob shuckers, all. Too corny for words.
No wonder deep throat was able to avoid detection for so long in DC. Deep throats in that City are in a league of their own, barely challenged by Long Tongues.
I've always thought Biden was a condescending, elitist RAT who is also appallingly stoopit. He never disappoints.
You might not be a Catholic, but you sure have a better understanding of what rosaries are for than Biden does.
I still cannot fathom why he'd even say something like that within anyone's earshot. What a jerk he is (jerk will do for now).
"He was drunk, right?"
Nope, just brain dead left.
Julian Carroll is indeed the definition of the Democratic Party. Boy is he dirty!
"He was drunk, right?"
...
I didn't realize Bidens hair spray was so intoxicating.
Hey Joe, it was your parties obvious anti-American stance that ruined the Democratic base.
Old (bad comb over) fool.
I'm guessing it's the Democrats who would be sorry.
Thank you.
The fact that he said it can be summed up in one word; Desperation.
"(jerk will do for now)"
LOL! The Dems seem far too desperate to risk p1$$1ng a jerk off.
Now THAT is funny!
All I will say is the most charitable thing I can think of: "what a character."
Oooh man, I don't know who's nuttier, Joe Biden or Howard Dean. Some of the comments are outstanding! This guy is a total idiot, and does not represent Catholics.
Nyer, have you seen this thread yet?
Rick Jensen is about to get into it on WDEL
Biden probably throws rosary beads during Mardi Gras.
With Biden, the issue isn't whether he's religious or not, it's whether he has the intelligence and temperment for the job. He has none of either.
I confess I have never been able to tell the place from Maryland, which ought to buy it.
Hey he plaigurized that statement!!! Again!
