8. Be careful throwing stones
You should probably check to make sure your house isn't made of glass first.
In your case, it is.
http://projects.washingtonpost.com/congress/110/senate/vote-missers/
Biden has missed 30.0 percent of the votes this session, including some big ones like the Gonzales no-confidence vote. That's the most of any Democratic candidate.
Obama has missed a few more recently, but still has only missed 26.4 percent overall this session.

And if you want to look at last year, when they weren't campaigning:
Biden missed 9.9% of the votes. Obama, just 1.7%
