On Saturday, Vice President Joe Biden spoke at a major Virginia fundraiser, pushing himself as a possible 2016 presidential contender. “With virtually zero support from the Republicans, the president and I have moved the country from the worst recession since the Great Depression to 38 months of private-sector growth,” said Biden. Biden then launched an assault on Republican gubernatorial candidate Ken Cuccinelli, the state’s attorney general, whom he said was “at odds with the value set of Virginians.”
He said that the GOP was now in danger of being controlled by the Tea Party. “They are so afraid of a challenge by the tea party that they vote against what is the right vote,” said Biden. “Imagine what they will do to Barack and me if Terry McAuliffe loses.”
