A bottle of whiskey works for celebrating or commiserating.

A+++ I always thought perhaps we exaggerated Joe’s crazy ways.....but alas, he is worse than anyone knew. To think they gave him intense debate prep, yet didn’t request he tone down the smirks and disrespect? They lost, again. All eyes turn back to Obama next week. Can’t imagine they have a clue.

I heard it described on Twitter as Joe the drunk, Martha the bartender and Paul the salesman who just wanted a quiet drink. Joe won’t shut up, Martha can’t control him and Paul just wants to get out of there.

Mostly, but when I turned the wheel all the way to the right a squirt of power steering fluid would spray on the exhaust an it looked like i was driving out of Joe Biden’s mind

Well, as big a liar as he is, as big an “expert” on foreign policy as he is supposed to be, and as big a pompous jerk as he proved himself to be last night, it may become obvious to even liberals that Joe Biden in no riant of a real man.

Joey Chompers needs to check himself before he wrecks his manic riant self.
See Proverbs 29:9 If a wise man contends with a foolish man, Whether the fool rages or laughs, there is no peace.

Also, am I the only one wondering what the WH shrink loads up into these guys before their debates? Too many tranks for ozero and poor control of the labile one last night.

I also hope that the so-called fact checkers remind everyone that in spite of what he claimed last night, Joey Chompers voted for both wars and the prescription drug plan. Who is the liar again?

We have a bottle of Mccallan (10 year old). I would love nothing better than to share a drink (figuratively) with thousands of freepers on that night...

It’s been burning up the right wing blogosphere. I heard it this morning on the radio.

OH, I think Joe played to the devoted liberal nutcases, they saw nothing wrong with his boorish behavior. The problem is, they wanted to hang on to the female vote and overwhelmingly the women found him obnoxious. The independents were rebuffed by that performance. I can’t imagine in the real fight for votes that Joe helped at all. I think he lost them votes. It was so difficult to watch that most women must have tuned out to go go bed. Today at the water cooler, I expect they are dismayed.

Joey was a riant flop last night. A+++
