Weekly Standard’s Mark Hemingway: “Joe Biden’s laughing through talking about Iran sanctions?”

Washington Examiner’s Philip Klein: “Biden’s strategy seems to be to laugh at Ryan constantly. Will it work to infantalize Ryan, or backfire like Gore sighing?”

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

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

Radio host Neal Boortz: “Looking like Biden’s gameplan is to laugh his way through this.”

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.”

Washington Post’s Chris Cillizza: “Ok. I have decided. I find the Biden smile slightly unsettling.”

(Also on POLITICO: 5 things to watch in VP debate)

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”

Time for some creative FReepers to make a Biden-Joker photoshop.
That would sell tons of T shirts in time for Halloween.
“Why so unserious?”

Difference between Conservatives and Libs? We like getting jobs in the private sector. Libs like getting jobs in the Oral Office.

Biden and Rabbitz wasted everyone’s time this evening by turning a debate, where people wanted to learn about issues, into a joke. Thanks for nothin’, Biteme.

This says it all for me.

Maybe you have something there, I thought of that too, that Biden had the questions in advance, The laughter is a form of over confidence, he was too smooth, and rude beyond belief.

The best thing about Biden’s performance is that the very people most apt to be turned off by the sneering and rudeness are women voters who are used to being treated with such dismissiveness by men that they see right through the facade. Since more women voters side with the Dems (and many will find Ryan attractive anyway), I bet some of the women will switch sides or decide to stay home.

The replay of the debate is on CNN right now. I know CSPAN reruns it.

If you want to see it, I'd recommend it highly. Biden comes across as a bully, laughing at Ryan, trying his best to marginalize the Republican candidate. Despicable.

Well, yes, but that’s always been Biden’s M.O. I can’t think of anyone he appeals to, other than men just like him — in the eloquent words of AntiHillary on another thread: pricks.

Why why why do we continue to allow these people to moderate? Why can’t we have Britt Hume for once?

Biden reminds me of the Cheshire cat in Alice in Wonderland!

Every time I see him, all I see is his teeth — the rest of him is invisible to me.

Then, he starts talking, and his image disappears entirely!

(I.e., I fast forward to something else!)

I thought that Biden was so loud at the beginning of the debate, drowning out Paul Ryan deliberately...Paul should have raised his voice in rebuttal but I don’t know if the microphones were rigged that way or what...but did you notice how quiet Biden got at the end, like he was suddenly respectful, not respectful of Ryan of course, but whatever he was trying to promote.

Actually her first marriage was to Ben Bradlee Jr., son of the legendary Washington Post editor. Tom Gjelten, her husband of the past 15 years, is a correspondent for National Public Radio. Between the two, Barry’s now-FCC friend.

No question that “Dirt Bag” debate moderator, Martha Raddatz gave Joe Biden all of her questions in advance of the VP debate. She also always cut Ryan short and never cut off Biden. Terrible moderator, but she did her assigned job for the Obamabot team...of which she is a full bore, communist, lock-stepper!!! Not to worry though!!! Martha did herself in, looked like a total buffoon and Biden did the rest all by his very own self.

Facts are: Biden with his facial antics, scorn, and sick laughter did himself in. the Obamabot team is in real trouble. Not only did Biden lose the debate because of his snob attitude, but he lied about the Libya murders of our diplomats and public servants. There is much for the Obamabots to answer to the American people for. As for Raddatz, she has done herself in....and will now disappear into obscurity forever where she so rightfully belongs!!! Thumbs up for Jim Lehrer and thumbs down for Martha Raddatz!!!
