Vice President Biden drew a tough retort from Mitt Romney's campaign Tuesday after telling a Virginia audience that the Republican presidential candidate's plan to lift financial regulation would "put y'all back in chains."

:shock: did he say that in the south ?...stupid is what stupid does :lol:

    This campaign is stupid and really ugly.

    worse than the flip flop swift boat shit from 04? I thought I would lose my mind during that season.


    I am about to shut off...after the GOP convention I am unplugging. I know who I will be voting for and short of him being shown eating baby pandas and using Nazi themed napkins to wipe his mouth he will keep my vote...

    it's almost over buddy ;) politics has to be the dirtiest business around, mud slinging and false statements seem to be the norm these days and we the voter stand in the middle of it all.

    our votes don't even count, what with the electoral college and all. some say every vote matters. i'm not so sure anymore. at one time i was proud as shit to be voting. as i have been witnessing with the rest of the country, politics in this country is bullshit and a scam. the entire process needs a make-over including every single thing about D.C. as well as every state's govenor's seat on down to small town mayors.

    Speaking of votes not meaning anything. My Congressional district was gerrymandered to look like this to keep the shitty Republican who somehow won in 2010 in office:

    Campaigns have been dumbed down since 2004. They are dumbed down to reach the dumb electorate that'll venture off of their couches in November.
    If anyone is to blame for shitty campaigns... it is us.

    Nah - dirty campaigns started long before that.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_presidential_election,_1828
    The campaign was marked by an impressive amount of mudslinging. Jackson's marriage came in for attack: when he had married his wife Rachel, the couple had believed that she was divorced; however, the divorce was not yet finalized, so he had to remarry her once the legal papers were complete. In the Adams campaign's hands, this became a scandal. Charles Hammond in his Cincinnati Gazette asked: “Ought a convicted adulteress and her paramour husband be placed in the highest offices of this free and Christian land?”

    The notorious Coffin Handbills attacked Jackson for his court martial and execution of deserters, massacres of Indian villages, and his habit of dueling.

    Adams did not escape attack. It was charged that Adams, while serving as Minister to Russia, had surrendered an American servant girl to the appetites of the Czar. Adams was also accused of using public funds to buy gambling devices for the presidential residence; it turned out that these were a chess set and a pool table.

    Adams' praise of internal improvements in Europe, such as "lighthouses of the skies" (observatories), in his first annual message to Congress, and his suggestion that Congress not be "palsied by the will of our constituents" was given attention in and out of the press. John Randolph stated on the floor of the Senate that he'd "never will be palsied by any power save the constitution, and the will of my constituents." Jackson wrote that a lavish government combined with contempt of the constituents could lead to despotism, if not checked by the "voice of the people".

    It is the never-ending campaigning that has become brain numbing.
    It used to be, we would have to suffer through campaign shit from late September to Election Day.
    After that, we quit being Republicans and Democrats and went back to being Americans again.

    After watching it on the news, it was obvious he was talking specifically about slavery. And it was obviously, while in extreme poor taste for a VP, a joke.

    One thing is for sure...Biden is an idiot of the highest order. I wouldn't trust that guy with my lunch order, let alone the presidency.
