"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.

Oh, please, please, please, let it be Joe!!! It would be better than Screamin' Dean.
"The next Republican that tells me I'm not religious I'm going to shove my rosary beads down their throat."
Ahh, and there-in lies the problem. He obviously doesn't know what Rosary Beads are for, the same way he has never read the Cathechism of the Catholic Church:
"2273 The inalienable right to life of every innocent human individual is a constitutive element of civil society and its legislation"
Yeah he's real religious......supporting abortion!!
Who defined these social issues in the first place?
-PJ
Justin Cardinal Rigali of Philadelphia and
Francis Cardinal George of Chicago
Also Avery Cardinal Dulles (son of Ike's Sec/State John Foster Dulles)
The New York Archdiocese holds an annual charity dinner called the Al Smith Dinner (named for the 1928 Democratic Presidential candidate, a Catholic and usually MC'd by his Republican grandson) and it is held in October. In presidential election years, this dinner is an absolute mandatory appearance for major party presidenial nominees. Biden would be shredded with the parts left in the gutter if he showed up. Edward Cardinal Egan has his weaknesses but his hatred of abortion will keep him from comforting the embarassing likes of the lying drunken frat boy of faithless Notre Dame, who is Neil, errr Joe Biden.
Really? Let me know when you plan to be in Denver and we'll see.
At least he has some claim to bald. What possible basis is there for Biden to claim to be Catholic?????? And no, I don't care about the details of his Baptism with his subsequent track record.
ping.
"What a maroon ... what an im-bess-ell ..."
And then, I'll beat them over the head with a large crucifix! I'll smack their knuckles with Sister Mary's wooden ruler! I'll whack their shins with a Bishop's crozier! I'll run them down with the Popemobile! That'll show them how serious I take my Catholicism!!!!
I really don't think the GOP is particularly concerned about Joe Biden being the nominee.
"The next Republican that tells me I'm not religious I'm going to shove my rosary beads down their throat."
That sounds like a challenge Mr. Biden.
Okay, I don't think you are religious. I think you are a card carrying commie atheist. If you are still in a mind to shove those rosary beads down my throat, I can send you an address.
Biden, go jump in a lake. You're merely a poser using your affiliation (no, it's not a faith for Biden) for political points. If I ever saw Biden abusing a Rosary...well, I've got a size 11 cowboy boot to shove into his behind.
