Biden sends middle-class message to Jeffersonville

Sen. Joe Biden took his heart-land and middle-class message to Jeffersonville, Ind., just after 5 p.m. Wednesday.

The Democratic vice-presidential nominee spoke for about 30 minutes before a crowd of about a thousand people at Warder Park in downtown Jeffersonville.

Biden connected Republican presidential nominee John McCain to current President George Bush as well as recent crises on Wall Street.

He said that a Obama-Biden White House would fundamentally change how government works.

“We have a culture in Washington where the very few - the wealthy, the powerful - have a seat at the table and the rest of us are on the menu,” Biden said. “Ladies and gentlemen, this must change.”
