Fear mongering is all they have left.

Vice President Joe Biden told senior citizens at the White House today that the Ryan budget shows that Republicans care more about the wealthy than the elderly, saying that Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Wis., wants to “basically get rid of” Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security.
“Don’t tell me that you value and are deeply concerned about seniors if in fact you eviscerate the things that you know they rely on not only for their well being — I’ll return to this — but for their dignity, for their dignity and their pride,” Biden said at a White House Community Leaders briefing on Seniors Issues. “They’ve made a clear choice: lower the standard of living for those on Medicare and Medicaid rather than ask the wealthiest for anything,” he said later.
As his address continued, Biden walked back part of that comment by denying that he was suggesting that Republicans “don’t care about the elderly.” But he stuck by his argument about tax cuts and entitlement spending. “They’ve got to eviscerate everything else to come up with another $2 trillion, $800 billion dollars.”
