Joe Biden was on the offensive during his two stops in New Hampshire on Monday. He focused on the economic crisis, and lashed out at John McCain and Sarah Palin.
"Folks, what's new? What new is John McCain proposing that's different than waiting for our luck to change?"
Biden told the crowd he and Barack Obama will turn the economy around. "We'll provide what the economic leadership in the international community is looking for, real leadership with real ideas, not my way or the highway. The world is waiting, the world is waiting for American leadership."
Biden says an Obama administration will give tax cuts to the middle class rather than the wealthiest Americans. "Not one single person making less than $250,000 will see a single penny increase on their taxes, and 95 percent will get a tax cut. There are the facts. Eight hundred thousand people in New Hampshire will get a tax cut. Eight hundred thousand people."
About The Candidates & Issues"When Barack Obama is President we're going to change our luck. We're going to change our luck. You make your own luck. You make your own luck. The neighborhood I come from you make your own luck, you make your own luck."
Biden did not take any questions from the crowd.
This is a busy week in New Hampshire. Sarah Palin will be making several stops in New Hampshire on Wednesday. This will be her first campaign trip to the state.
Barack Obama will be in Londonderry on Thursday.
