Joe Biden vs Paul Ryan - the VP debate - lets score it!

[TitoFan]

I was honest about the Presidential debate...... I'm gonna be honest now.
The debate is still on-going, but Biden is having a better showing than Obama did.
I wish Obama would've shown half the spunk Biden is showing.
If I were to choose, I think so far he's kicking Ryan's butt.

Not really the moderator is just allowing him to interrupt.

According to Joe Biden there has been a lot of "loose talk"

Ryan looks like a sputtering kook if I'm honest. Little bit over his head. Way to much of would have should have.

He did ok, considering he's a young guy with little debate experience.

I'm gonna watch a little of the post debate talk, and see who was thought to win.

Biden was running on the spot fact checking. Meaning, every time Ryan started to spout some bullshit Biden just jumped in (interrupted) and called it just that. Was it cordial? Naw. Maybe even rude. But he sure jumped in a lot! Because there is/was that much BS coming from other side.


Biden did a good job. Too much smiling and all that, but that is style. Elections shouldn't be about style, but about substance. When he talked it was all substance and Ryan had no good answer for that.

Doubt it will do much for the polls. But it was good tv. Obama had better have been paying attention and taking notes unless he wants to kiss the election goodbye.

I agree all and all. Just almost like he, Ryan, was reading a prep sheet live and never stopped smiling-smirking. The first question was huge though...great with 'Failure' in Libya by moderator and Ryan was very strong there. Biden got 'loud' too but if Obama ever misses his own sac maybe he can borrows Bidens. Second to last question about a real veteran being disenfranchised about 'negative' tone of both sides and how to 'win' interest over bugged the shit outta me...Ryan just turned it into a campaign add and only whats wrong with other side. Duh.

basically:

[Mars_ax]

No clear winner really, but just the fact that Biden held his own and then some, might help the Dems some but not much. I believe voters will come away from the debate seeing Ryan more favorably, in other words, ultimately the Repubs will benefit most, mainly because Biden is not very likable. Ryan's youth and inexperience will be forgiven as well.

[Mars_ax]

The Dems are going to say Biden won the "debate" no matter what, but it's hard to know how the Independent/undecided voters will feel. I can't imagine why anyone would want 4 more years of BO and Biden.

[Nameless]

I hate them quite a lot but IMO, Biden won that one hands down, he was more eloquent, won on the psychology department with his cutting smile and his explanations were all around better articulated. Fuck this old prick still.

I tuned in about 30 minutes into it, watch 10 minutes and couldn't take anymore.
