Biden: Romney is "a little out of touch"
CBS News ^ | April 1, 2012

Posted on 04/01/2012 10:47:53 AM PDT by Oldeconomybuyer

(CBS News) Vice President Joe Biden came out swinging against Mitt Romney on Sunday's "Face the Nation," saying the Republican presidential front-runner "seems not to understand" the struggle of the middle class.

"Governor Romney's a little out of touch," Biden told anchor Bob Schieffer.

"I can't remember a presidential candidate in the recent past who seems not to understand... what ordinary middle class people are thinking about and are concerned about," Biden added.

The vice president criticized the former Massachusetts governor for his statements opposing government intervention in the auto industry and his hands-off, free-market approach to foreclosures

"I don't know if he understands that there are 12 million people out there paying their mortgage payments," Biden said. "And all we want to do is give 'em a chance to refinance at a lower rate."

"None of what he's offering does anything. It's just returning to the old policies," Biden said.

This from an administration that has no tie to the real world.

Sometimes real life is much funnier then anything a comedy writer could invent. I wish we could all be as aware, focused and on top of things as Joe Biden.

"Governor Romney's a little out of touch,"

Tough to argue that one.

Biden the broken clock politician.

Amtrack Joe is calling out someone for being out of touch. Now that’s rich.

Romney is a little out of touch and Corzine is the smartest guy I know.

Joe isn’t “out of touch”...he is a bit “touched”.

So it’s come to this? - the country that produced Washington, Madison, Jefferson, Lincoln, Reagan is now offering up Biden, Romney and Soetero as the best that we produce as leaders?

That’s just sad, Larry, that’s what it is - that’s just sad.
