IMO, Ryan has the facts but is not an bully;
Biden doesn’t have the facts but is a bully.

This performance has had no resemblance to a debate.

“You mean like the way obama, by being meek, let Romney hang himself in their debate? No. Ryan lost this big time.”

Not at all.

Romney attacked Obama without looking mean-spirited, crazy or rude. Different case here.

Ryan had a shaky start, but he’s finishing strong.

im watching CNN with the volume off and watching the lines on the undecided voters....Ryan talks and it jumps up to positive...Biden talks and it flatlines almost every time...

Where do you get the idea that Ryan’s lost? You and I are clearly not watching the same thing. Ryan’s terrific.

“Martha” was in the bag for Joe.

Paul did OK in a loaded setting.

I hated him before. It has risen to a new level.

Yes, we VERY MUCH despise it.

I wonder how the man-hating feminists/libs will like Joe Butt-In’s conversationus interruptus?

Biden says “we inherited a bad situation” over and over again.

Biden got in a lot of bs.

Biden overplayed the laughing and dismissive attitude.

Moderator helped Biden.

Ryan did okay but was mostly a tie.

Ryan did well enough wonder how the indies saw it....

Everyone needs to remember that this is EXACTLY how Biden conducted himself during his debate with Palin. I’m sure the Romney team watched that debate as part of their prep for this one with Ryan/Biden.

How Ryan is conducting himself has to be part of their strategy. They’ve decided not to try and answer every bloviation coming from Plugs, just ride it out and seem sane.

Just my opinion. Take it for what it’s worth :)

Agreed. I was in the Romney/Obama debate thread and a few of the Ryan bashers tonight were noticeable absent/quiet in that thread when Romney was really winning big.

This is not the stomp a few are making it. Cnn’s focus group for Biden’s comments drops when he starts smirking and laughing.

Its not as if Ryan is being dumb or making stupid comments, he’s just being trampled over but NOT by someone smart and confident but by rudeness. It’s not the same and doesn’t come across the same to the average person.

Closing statements. Biden Bush’s fault.

For me, the interruptions from Biden and that hag have completely ruined this debate.

The entire debate process was ruined and they made this entire event nothing but a joke.

Agree.

But Ryan is finishing strong (finally). In the end, that’s what people will remember...

Biden looks crazy — from completely diabolical with his evil smile to completely deflated.

The moderator is the biggest jerk AFAIC!!

This debate made me really nervous. Even though Ryan had the right information and answers, he was not allowed to speak without interruptions. The mod and Biden tried very hard to make him look bad and keep him off balance. Biden was arrogant and argumentative, rather than a debate. I actually wish it had not happened.
