Vice President Joe Biden visited the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse Friday one day after he faced off against his Republican opponent Paul Ryan Thursday in the only vice presidential debate of the 2012 election.
Biden called his opponent a “gentleman” during his speech, but was quick to point out that he “hardly agree[d] with anything” Ryan said during the debate.
“I don’t think there’s any doubt that Congressman Ryan and I, Governor Romney and the President, we have a fundamentally different vision for America and quite frankly a fundamentally different values set,” Biden said.
The state of Wisconsin, specifically its student population, has been the center of much attention from the incumbent administration as both Biden and Obama have made university appearances in the days immediately following their debates.
Biden’s acknowledged Wisconsin’s battleground status when he exclaimed, “If we win Wisconsin, we win this election!”
First Lady Michelle Obama also announced Sunday she will visit Wausau and Racine Friday.
