Biden to lawyers here: What would we do without you?

The Chicago Sun-Times reports:

Vice President Joe Biden told 700 trial lawyers gathered in Chicago Monday he didn’t know what the country would do without them.

“Man, I don’t know what we’d do without you — who is going to step up and take the case of the little guy who’s getting screwed?” Biden asked the lawyers gathered for the convention of the American Association for Justice, formerly the American Trial Lawyers Association.

Biden meets with the non-creators.
