From CBS News' Ryan Corsaro:

(LIBERTY, MO.) - Biden threw a political punch at Sarah Palin this afternoon in Liberty, saying "Sarah Palin says, you know, 'I was in second grade when Joe Biden was elected to the United States Senate at age 29'."

"That's true, but she was in sixth grade the last time John had a new idea."

Biden also worked the room with a jab at the McCain Palin ticket on their oratory abilities.

"I understand that earlier this year your debate team, your debate team won the Missouri state championship here at William Jewell. I bet John McCain and Sarah Palin right now wish they had asked you for some tips," said Biden.

"I could use a few myself," added Biden.

Biden will be performing again tonight at 7:15pm in Jefferson City, Mo.

I would like to see more of what Senator Biden,who really looks good to me, has to say about the economy and Iraq and Iran and Russia and education, and forget about all the garbage that the Repubs are using as diversions for their weaknesses. Come on folks, we are adults. Let''s act like adults!
I think Senator Obama has handled the ugliness from his opposition very well. Let''s get back to the issues! We''ve got some really serious problems folks!

McCain and Palin... will you please consider growing up and talking to use about your qualifications, instead of acting like ****** little children in a schoolyard and throwing ill-researched barbs and accusations. You do not impress me, you annoy me, and make me even more convinced Obama is the right choice.

McCain and Palin want Obama dead. They belong to the kind of people that successfully hides their hate and their lies behind a Christian pro-life agenda. They lie to the country and live out our stupidity.

The fact of the matter is that if they would have anything against Obama or Biden, they would have said it.

They have nothing against Obama that is why they hate him so much.

We need honest people that are honorable and trustworthy.

Obama and Biden are two real heroes being crucified by religious fanatics.

ENOUGH OF REPUBLICAN LIES AND MANIPULATIONS.

ENOUGH OF REPUBLICANS IN POWER.

ENOUGH OF REPUBLICANS REPREHENSIBLE WAYS.

GOD IS NOT ON REPUBLICANS SIDE.

GOD HAS ALLOWED 9/11
KATRINA
ECONOMIC MELTDOWN
WAR IN IRAQ
WAR IN AFGHANISTAN

REPUBLICANS SHOULD THINK VERY HARD WHY IS GOD ALLOWING THE COUNTRY SUFFER SO MUCH UNDER REPUBLICANS.

MAYBE WE ARE COVERING OUR EYES AND EARS TO AVOID SEEING AND HEARING.

GOD IS SAYING SOMETHING TO AMERICA.

GOD IS NOT ON THE REPUBLICAN SIDE.

I find it amazing that dems are screaming about McCain''s and Palin''s lack of integrity because they have the nerve to point out Obama''s lack of integrity...

I''m glad they''re finally speaking out against Ayers, Wright, and ACORN.

Oh, and all of you screaming about McCain''s and Palin''s lack of integrity, and how the democratic presidential nominee was above such, Obama not only gave hundreds of thousands of dollars to ACORN during this campaign, but has in the past been the trainer to these people caught in voter fraud. That''s the liberal''s idea of integrity?

Mrs. Di, where have you been today. It''s been all over the news that ACORN has come forth stating that voter fraud WAS taking place within their organization and was so rampant they didn''t know how to stop it.

Sarah Palin and John McCain have lost all moral authority and moral compass. They are close to inciting riots (and there are indeed laws against that) at their campaign rallies, where they clearly succeed in only one thing--character assassination and lying that leads their die-hard extremist fans to conclude that a respected U.S. Senator is a terrorist. Shouts are heard at these rallies that suggest lynch mobs and mob rule--"Kill him!" their crowd shouts, and "Terrorist!"

Shame on you, Sarah, shame on you, John. There is a special circle of hell reserved for those guilty of calumny and slander. Your candidacies have lost all credibility and relevance, and you have become dangerous terrorists yourselves.

He''''s far more interesting than your lackluster, insipid candidate for the #1 spot on the ticket.

We are looking for somebody with enough intelligence and sophistication to help the people find the way to direct this country, so that we survive and prosper. insead of continuing down this path where our countrys resources and the middle class are being raped and robbed by RepubliCONS!
