VP Joe was fairly animated...acting like your goofy Uncle who comes over and sips a six-pack of beer from your fridge, while discussing NHL stikes, WW II, Mickey Mantle, and taxes. I would say this...if we were playing the drinking game last night and the key for the game was VP Joe interrupting Ryan....I would have been fairly drunk by the 30th minute.
I’d like to suggest this....if Romney wins....he ought to go ahead and hire VP Joe to be on his staff as an adviser. It wouldn’t mean we have to take Joe serious, but it’d be entertaining to have him around to pass the slow afternoons.
Empty cackling is not a great debate strategy.
Biden is a fool. The intelligence and diplomatic communities have been leaking information to the news media and Congress daily because they're so appalled at the disinformation coming from the White House. Biden threw gasoline on that fire tonight.
Joe “Honey Boo-Boo” Biden...Cutest VP EVER!
I hope the swing voters felt the same as I did......
Debates are partly about substance. But the problem is biteme came off as such a jerk that people were tuning out what he had to say. I turned it off after about 30 min.
Could we have been watching a VP that was simply was “cracking up” under the weight of the “pressures” of being VP?
I am simply is surprised that we did not see a nice group of folks bringing the VP a nice clean white jacket to put on VP Biden last night.
The only “real” adult sitting at the table was Rep. Ryan. Rep. Ryan WON.
Can someone do a poster of “Biden Gone Wild” using the Girls Gone Wild approach?
And who the hell did Tucker Carlson’s group of ‘undecided’ voters think they were kidding???? They were pro-Obama by about 3 to 1. I’m thinking these people say they are undecided so they can get on tv.
Saw that smile in the first 60 seconds or so and knew he was doomed.
Actually fell asleep midway, but saw the end. Had a (married) daughter text from where she was attending a church function, and I’m looking now at what I text:
Here comes the talking heads.
(Biden smiled and laffed too much that’s my view. (Meaning mine)
Then daughter text: Tech stuff - who scored best? I didn’t quite answer that as I was all ready to text this: Biden may have helped obama altho his smirky, mugging, rude demeanor may not have helped. Very unlikeable in this venue even tho people like him in private.
There was no further texting from her. Probably ending their meeting in prayer - - - !
Well, I never was able to get on FR at all till I woke up this morning. All in all, not the best of nights for me....and I'm being diplomatic.

Joe Biden’s constant interruptions of Ryan caused me (and thousands of others, I’m sure) to shout “Shut the f#@% up, Biden” at least once during the debate. I mean, his chuckling and giggling was bad enough, but the fact that he could interrupt Ryan at will, without any response from the liberal moderator, got under my skin quickly.
There’s a reason I’m not in politics - I would have jumped up from my chair and punched Joe’s lights out after about the third interruption just on general principal. Apparently, fisticuffs isn’t considered an acceptable means of disciplining an unruly opponent in a debate.
Biden brags that he was raised in a blue collar environment but, obviously, his parents did him a dis-service when it comes to teaching etiquette. People I know living in that environment would give a kid the back of their hand if a kid behaved so rudely in a conversation with another person.
Our home was technically at poverty level, and I’d have been sent into the middle of next week if I’d interrupted another person or rolled my eyes even once. Eighty-plus times, Joe? C’mon! Go back to your rubber room.
I didn’t watch ANY of it, other than what I couldn’t miss during 11PM news - and FF most of it.
BUT
From what I am reading and hearing, one must wonder how joebama would have come across had he NOT taken a week off to prepare????
From the day he was named VP, I began saying he (joebama) was BO’s ‘insurance policy’ as no one is or would be dumb enough to harm a hair on BO’s chinny-chin-chin as long as one knew joebama was a heartbeat away from the pResidency.
I have also maintained all along that BO is actually Michelle and vice versa, as they figured some one as big and intimidating as Michelle(BO) would freak people out.
-——“Too Chill Boy vs. Obnoxious Grandaddy.”-——
As a grandaddy, I wondered throughout the debacle if Biden was astounded that his opponent was three or so when he first took office, if his many hard won battles were for naught if he lost to a neophyte kid, if he was relevant or a relic?
Biden displayed the characteristics of a criminal. His capacity to lie, lie, lie is blatantly criminal.
Raddatz gave Biden a lap dance.
