Joe and Ryan have all said to much on foreign policy and domestic policy.

I trust neither at this point.

I will vote for Ryan and the folks down stream and hope to avoid duplicitous snakes like Obama and Biden

[samtheman]

The Kofi Anan answer was a good one.

[Red Steel]

Ryan losing......plain and simple..,.so far

Sorry folks this Biden act won't help Obama one bit.

[SVTCobra03]

I don’t blame the moderator for the lackluster performance by Ryan.

What is the color of the sky in your world?

[patriciamary]

Ryan sucks

[genetic homophobe]

you my FRiend are sadly exactly right. Biden’s smirks and laughs won’t hurt him like Gore’s sighs did. Ryan’s getting rolled by both of them.

[Miss Didi]

And his “listen up folks, who ya gonna trust” routine is arrogant.

[samtheman]

Biden wins by default, because Mrs. FCC Chairman won’t allow Ryan to complete one single fucking sentence without Biden interrupting! And, instead of telling Biden to STFU to let Ryan finish, she turns it over to Biden.

Sure she's an Obama operative but there's no surprise there. The surprise is Ryan's weakness.

[RedMDer]

Biden looks perplexed and tries to confuse the issues.

[TortReformer]

Actually...think Ryan is doing great

[Signalman]

Dick Morris: Too much time on foreign affairs. It’s boring. And I agree.

[Darnright]

Jonah Goldberg ‏@JonahNRO If Biden was advised to be angry at everything he doesn't find hysterical, he's executing perfectly.

[NoLibZone]

Joe typifies all we have to come expect of a democrat.

Whether it’s Obama phone lady, an Occupy Wall Street protestor or Joe Biden.

Emo.

[Yaelle]

Where the f is Ryan?

[TortReformer]

Actually...think Ryan is doing great

[matt04]

It stopped being a debate after about five minutes. It became clear Martha was working for Obama/DNC to shut down Ryan.

[Red Steel]

The _itch just interrupted Ryan 3 times with Idiot Biden jumping in.

[CitizenM]

The moderator is not moderating...she is participating...jabbing at Ryan, interrupting him, attacking voice, etc. This is throwing Ryan off.
