If the question is who did more to help his ticket, Joe Biden won the vice presidential debate by a mile.

Republican Paul Ryan performed pretty well. He made no major mistakes, and a CNN instant poll of viewers actually had him winning narrowly, 48 percent to 44 percent. But my assessment of the debate agreed with that of a CBS instant poll of uncommitted voters, who saw Biden as the landslide winner by 50 percent to 31 percent.

My guess is that Robinson so desperately wants Zippy to win that he is completely blind to reality. He needs Biden to win, so that’s what he saw.

Either that, or he’s being paid to lie.

Ryan did himself and the ticket proud.

Do I think he could have answered a few questions better? Yes. But that’s Monday morning quarterbacking. Try doing what he did live and see how tough it is. He did great. Not only were his answers good to excellent, but his demeanor was just right.

Ryan didn’t lose his cool. He looked like the only adult in the room. He reminded me very much of an adult tolerating a little sass in a child who wasn’t his, but then putting his foot down when it got out of hand. Either that or someone trying to be respectful and nice to an older fellow suffering from dementia, but not allow him to hurt himself or others.

You’re being too kind. Robinson is a full fledged racist. And he’s not subtle about.

My local paper runs every damn column he writes. He spews disgusting racist garbage pretty much non stop.

I woke up once and thought I was in Hell, but I was only in Orlando.

No “Barf Alert” - I upchucked in my mouth!

When you saw 'Eugene Robinson' as the author, you had to know that once you clicked on the post you'd be soon wading into a sewage swamp.
