Vice President Joe Biden jokingly asked voters in Danville, Va., Tuesday if they had Swiss bank accounts, a reference to Mitt Romney's financial holdings.
"How many of you have a swiss bank accounts?" Biden asked, as the audience laughed. "Raise your hand."
He continued: "How many of you have significant millions of dollars -- we do not know how much -- invested in the Cayman Islands?"
"Man, you guys are out of touch."

I really like Joe Biden. He will bring severe pain for the Rethugs this election cycle, as is his way.

Sure he had a nice house in Delaware and all but he doesn't have the millions stashed away somewhere.
