Southern Maryland Online: Beau Biden Rallies Delegation

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — The Maryland delegation spent breakfast Wednesday reveling in the success of their governor’s convention speech Tuesday night and rallying behind a speech by the vice president’s son.

Maryland Attorney General Doug Gansler, who sponsored the breakfast, made the crowd laugh while introducing Joseph Robinette “Beau” Biden III at Wednesday’s breakfast: “He is from Delaware. You know that place where you spend your money when you forget to go to the beaches in Maryland. It’s also the size of Rockville.”

Biden, an Army National Guard major who was deployed to Iraq in 2008, criticized the Romney/Ryan ticket for its rhetoric on veterans.

“There can’t be a debate that it is the role of the government to take care of veterans. There is no question about that,” said Biden, Delaware attorney general.
