My vote goes to the guy with poise in the face of ass.
Only people that watch cbs.
LLS
As an aside, this is complete Bullsh*t that once again, on a huge debate night, FReerepublic faithfully goes down! Seriously, WTF gives? Not trying to be a jerk, but this is just becoming absurd. I think the next debate I'll just save myself the frustration and hang out on another live discussion thread. Very disappointing.
Beautiful! Now if someone could add that to a t-shirt with a face
of laughing jackass Biden, it will sell like hot cakes.
That will cheer up their 59 viewers.
“he looked like a pedophile you would see on your local sex offender registry.”
We thought Biden had the same demeanor as one of those pedophile sex offenders caught on Dateline NBC! At one point, I thought he was going to get up and try to walk out through the garage, only to be grabbed by the waiting cops!
Paul Ryan 44%
Joe Biden 53%
Neither 4%

I was waiting for that guy Hanson to come into the room and ask Biden “what are you doing here..are these you IM messages”
Biden 44 minutes
Ryan 40 minutes
According to Bret Baier.
“I was waiting for that guy Hanson to come into the room and ask Biden “what are you doing here..are these you IM messages””
Yup, that’s exactly what we were thinking too, Sarah! What a disgusting performance by an arrogant, rude, liberal hack. Biden is the poster child for Congressional term limits. That this guy has earned a huge salary, paid by the US taxpayers, for 35 years is an absolute disgrace! We have to get him out of here on Nov 6th!
Ryan had a chance to knock OBAMA out but didn’t do crap imo
I would have asked biden “How much was the deficit last year of Bush?
and how much was the deficit every year Obama?Obama put so much debt on us that we the U.S. will never recover. Ask that moron Obama how will pay that back . there is not that much money in the world EVER . does any one realize that we will never have the 6 trillion dollars Obama piled up on us?Obama has doomed our future.
do the same thing with # jobs as it is now less than when Obama took office and now workforce grew by 8 million with less jobs now etc. Hope Romney does this.
And point out media bias.
Biden showed what wrong wIth Washington dc today..the smug arrogance..the rolling of the eyes..The crossing of the arms..the constant laughing..I wonder what those around the world thought of Biden tonight..probably we’re shaking their head in disbelief that the American People hired this fool in 2008..he made us look like a laughing stock..it was unreal never seen anything like it before..laughing about everything..I hope obamacare pays for extra large straight jackets because Biden needs one badly
“Rudeness and mocking are viewed as signs of strength and confidence whereas politeness is seen as weakness.”
Only to the libtards. Biden turned off women and independents. The focus groups thought he was rude, condescending and irritating.
I’m with you Sarah! Yikes, it’s 1:24AM here in the east. Good night!
Romney absolutely destroyed Obama the marxist POS in their debate.
Ryan didn’t even come close to being as good ad Romney was.
Destined to go down in the annals of political farces, tonight’s debate proved one thing; just how increasingly desperate, juvenile, and out of touch Democrats really are as the election nears. Debates are supposed to be informative, professional forums that invoke a constructive discussion of the most pressing issues. Yet, it’s obvious Team Obama – which includes the home town moderator - realized they could not beat Ryan on the issues, so they decided to turn a democratic staple for the voting masses into a prime time circus replete with century-old, stale stereotypes and Jersey Shore sensationalism.
If anyone actually believes Biden’s obnoxious and smug performance won anything, especially votes, they are in for a rude awakening on November 6th. The fact countless independent voters - those who are the most immune to partisan spin - were appalled by Biden’s rude and condescending behavior, as well as the moderator’s blatant favoritism, is case in point. Then again, if you really want to know who won the debate, go back – if you dare – and keep score on every issue. There are no points for interruptions, smirks, tantrums or seizures….just sound, coherent, factually correct answers. Or, for the sake of brevity, you can sit back and recall that 23 million are out of work, 47 million are on food stamps, over 7 million homes have been foreclosed since 2008 and gas is $4 a gallon. But “honest” Joe didn’t mention that, did he? The circus never does.
But, to be fair, Biden's performance was even worse than the disaster that was Obama's last week! And, to top it off, Biden came off as a real fucking dick, too. To an extent that no VP candidate in my lifetime has ever done. Seriously. A real fucking dick.
I would have pointed out media bias and how Obama is destroying the U.S. with debt and big government and taking our freedoms, and it's dictatorial executive order :” You tell me how Obama has the right to act like a dictator. I ask Congress now to do your duty and impeach Obama for abuse of power for passing the dream act Amnesty for illegals over the objection of Congress and behind the American people. Have you no shame Obama? Resign now for this dictatorial act and for destroying the American dream, and the media for covering this up"'s back”
Oh I can go on for 300 pages like this but what's the point. I hope we can still pull it out but Ryan had an opportunity and I hope mitt says this.
I went to the DUmp to see what they thought about Nate Silver calling Florida 60-40. I didn’t find anything about it, of course; but I did see many “DU this poll!” threads. All had Ryan winning until they DUed them.
