NBC’s David Gregory: “Biden’s smile is out of control.”

BuzzFeed’s Ben Smith: “So did Biden practice laughing at Ryan???”

Townhall.com’s Guy Benson: “Will Biden laugh his ass off at the terrible economy, too?”

MSNBC’s S.E. Cupp: “Biden needs to laugh a little less through the Libya, Middle East, nuclear Iran segment.”

PBS’ Jeff Greenfield: “Biden has always had a smile that at times is really, really inappropriate.”

Washington Examiner’s Paul Bedard: “Can’t tell yet if Biden’s smirking, laughs, eye-rolling, head shaking, works for him or not against the oh-so-young looking eager Ryan.”

Former White House press secretary Ari Fleischer: “Biden is at risk of having his laugh come across like Gore’s sighs. He should knock it off.”

The New York Times’ Ashley Parker: “Biden’s grin is Chesire Cat caliber.”

Republican strategist Ron Bonjean: “Biden laughing does not come off with the intended effect. It is actually hurting him. Looks very condescending.”

Movie critic Roger Ebert: “Joe! Stop smiling and laughing!”

Washington Times’ Emily Miller: “Biden laughing when he disagrees with Ryan is so annoying. Like a child in time out.”

Washington Post’s Jennifer Rubin: “Biden’s laughing is losing the debate- obnoxious”

Look, folks, Joe Biden just had a wee bit to much to drink this evening prior to his VP debate with Paul Ryan!!! It cost him the debate....and probably will cause Obama to lose the POTUS race. At least, unlike Obama, who was stoned out of his mind with reefer or something stronger last week, Joe was just high on the sauce!!!

Biden reminded me of a jock/bully (who didn’t have to worry about grades because he could play a sport) trying to gear himself up to try and beat the snot out of some kid a lot smaller than him only this little kid had a black belt.

I thought the moderator was awful. She interrupted Ryan many times and would ask probing questions when he was finished. She didn’t do that with Biden so much. She also let the debate turn into a brawl. Biden looked like a bellicose, smug fat cat politician who has been in DC too long and needs to be sent home. He laughed, and smirked at times that were really inappropriate.

By David Bauder
Associated Press

New York — The day before the vice presidential debate, the guest list for moderator Martha Raddatz’s 1991 wedding has become an issue, of sorts.

The list included Harvard Law School student and future president Barack Obama. ...”

I was put off by Biden’s inappropriate laughter but my 11=year-old son nailed it. “Do you think he’s drunk but kind of hiding it?”

I can understand why the moderator's first husband divorced her...she sure is not eye candy by any stretch...

I feel certain Biden had the questions in advance..put that moderator under oath and ask her if he did???

The first “question” was intended to give the White House an “out” on Libya. She asked if it was an “intelligence failure”.

she is a LIBERAL

Not just Liberal. Wife of a current Obama administration official -- Chairman of the Federal Communications Commission.

Can you imagine the wife of some GWB regulatory agency chairman moderating the 2004 Cheney-Edwards debate? That shit would just not fly. I'm so effin' tired of double standards.
