Wednesday August 27, 2008 23:46:00 EDT
(RTTNews) - Sen. Joe Biden, D-Del., the Democratic vice presidential nominee, offered a scathing critique of Republican presidential contender John McCain while boosting the man at the top of his ticket in remarks to the Democratic National Convention on Wednesday in Denver.
Biden, a veteran senator who chairs the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and who previously headed the Senate Judiciary Committee, said that although he likes McCain, the Republican has the wrong vision for America's future.
"John McCain is my friend. We've traveled the world together, it's a friendship that goes beyond politics," Biden said. "But I profoundly disagree with the direction John wants to take this country, from Afghanistan to Iraq from Amtrak to Veterans."
