Vice President Joe Biden: What's relevant on the economy is 'we're in charge'

"Even though 50-some percent of the American people think the economy tanked because of the last administration, that's not relevant," - The Hill

"What's relevant is we're in charge. And right now, we are the ones in charge and it's gotten better but it hasn't gotten good enough and in states like Florida it's become even more stagnant because of the real estate market."

Biden said the upcoming presidential elections would be a referendum on himself, President Obama and the economy.

"Right now, understandably, totally legitimate, this is a referendum on Obama and Biden and the nature of the state of the economy," Biden said. "It's soon going to be a choice."
