ST. LOUIS, Missouri (CNN) – Sen. Joe Biden called current Vice President Dick Cheney "one of the most dangerous vice presidents."
Biden said he will serve a different role than Cheney if Barack Obama was elected president.
"I would not be the president," said Biden. "But I would be there to give advice."

Keep it up joe
He's right.
Cheney mistakes people for quales.
"the most dangerous vice-president" is an understatement
Fortunately, Cheney is not up for re-election. We have change for the BETTER as an option.
McCAIN 08.
If Biden is elected Vice President he will become the most dangerous ever. He will loose his cool and tell Obama to punch the button.
True. I think that Palin saying she agrees with dick cheney on the role of the vp is scary. She is saying she will be dick cheney. Due to her lack of experience, this makes it a more scary proposition.
Would McCain really want advice from Palin? I think if he actually won the election she would have served her purpose and he'd kick her aside.
McCain/Pail will be just like Bush/Cheney.
True. Cheney is a power hungry monster. He said he would not run for president, nit because he didn't want the power, but because he is a scary gremlin that nobody would vote for.
Show what is wrong with the statement?
Looks Biden ready to cry or going to have heart attack.
I am going to say this a second time will someone please explain the meaning of Achilles Heel to the Gov!
If Joe Biden were as "flip" with her as she is with him, all hell would break loose.
AMEN!
Amen to that statement!
I would compare Dick Cheney to Hitler!
Couldn't have said it better!
I hope Joe doesn't have any hunting trips planned in the near future.
"one of the most dangerous vice presidents"? absolutely! I wouldn't even go hunting with the guy...
It scares me that Palin outright says she seeks more power for the role of VP.
I really want to start punching her face,… what is with all the winking and cutie delicate darling act???? is this really a major political party's candidate for the second most powerful job in the world? and for heaven's sakeee… I will shoot myself if the word MAVERICK is used againnnnn
what a way to tell it like it is!
He nailed her on that topic – she aligned with Cheney and Biden pointed out Cheney's record and toxicity.
Not quite a knockout by Biden but overall a clear TKO; McCain can't quit on her but he sure has to be regretting the "decision"
Joe Biden put that cheerleader out of words. America look at her debate answers she is clueless and not ready to lead this great nation. I do not know that if she did not answer the question asked but, she did not answer them directly. Joe Biden is the projected winner of that debate
Finally...someone says what we all know is true. Dick Cheney practices politics like he hunts...blindfold, shotgun, and a mall full of people...someone is going to get hurt. More often than not, the American People.
As a Canadian (Toronto), whose leadership debates are also happening tonight, I find the AMerican leadership debates much more interesting and more reflective of a global politcial perspective.
One difference between Biden and Palin ... if things come to the worst and one of them becomes President I would feel way more confident with a president Biden. But I need to admit ... if if comes to questions about Alaska, he just cannot beat Palin's experience.
"Also", Palin sounded like a little power-craze there with the "flexibility" of executive power.
Biden has a clear under standing of the role of VP, the law, the COnstitutuion. He was excellent tonight.
Palin never answered a question. She was stump speech all the way. What children going to college? SHe doesn't have any.
Biden is just jealous that he will never become V.P . Everyone leaving bad comments on Palin should be ashames of themselves. You all sound like a bunch of uneducated people. John Mc caine and Palin re ready to lead The United States.
Thank you Senator Biden – it's about time someone said that out loud and emphatically with millions of Americans watching.
Dick Cheney is the most dangerous person in our administration and I'm more intent on counting down the days he's in office than I am in counting down the days until we return the village idiot to Texas.
It would scare me if a candidate did NOT recognize Cheney as being a very dangerous man in power.
I think if I see one more wink or knowing smile come out of her, I will retch. And I don't know who Rollins is, but they must want to get into bed with her. They give her points for walking out on the stage.
