The comments at the articles site are great. The majority aren’t buying Simon’s crapola.

“...Biden was the 69-year-old defender, and Ryan was the 42-year-old challenger....”

Yep as in 69 year old incumbent with a horrific record to defend.

To be honest Obama has looked like a smiling simpleton to me for almost 4 years now.

"...by the end of the evening, Joltin’ Joe...".....had only served to convince the viewers what a smart alec jerk he is. 'ol Joe and Algore belong in the same group of small minded men.

There was a point in the debate where Biden was saying, “blah, blah, blah” when Ryan was speaking. It was unbelievable.

Retards like Simon are the reason why America is in the mess that it’s in. Does he actually believe that freak shows like the home run boy Biden put on is going to get us out of this mess? Obviously, Simon, like Biden, can’t take anything seriously and believe the proper action to be taken right now is to laugh and joke like a lunatic.

This is just plain weird analysis. I often do get the impression that Liberals believe in the most irrational things, like this tripe. Often they seem to think that their idiotic nostrums, failures, for some reason become more plausible if they’re presented in a loud and rude manner.

And if the Iranians have enough fissile material for one bomb they have already begun work on a delivery device, a device based on 70 year old technology. How long does Slow Joe think we really have in the age of internet hacking?

Agreed - the author has to be on something. Wait until he sees how much ammo Joe Bite-Me gave Romney for use of the next few weeks, not to mention this coming Tuesday...Nobody in their camp seems to realize that the number of lies tossed out by Joe would equate into problems unless it was an election eve event where nothing had time for checking.

Listen to urban talk radio discuss this debate. That demographic believes Biden won the debate--the hosts and the callers equate Biden's aggressive, overbearing, rude behavior with winning; they aren't much concerned with substance. They were much impressed with the way Biden appeared to be laughing at Ryan.

Listening is like a trip to an alternate universe.

Let’s see ....

The Catholic bishops have said Joe got it wrong on abortion & contraception

American Enterprise Institute now says Joe got it wrong citing their study
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/2944247/posts

Joe voted for the ‘wars’ he said he was against

Joe is demonstrably lying on Benghazi

Joe was an unmitigated disaster Thursday night .... even without all the facial gymnastics and laughing. After seeing the debate and then seeing a couple of his recent campaign speeches, I think the guy, in addition to the usual ‘Rat behavior of lying about everything, is suffering from dementia. He’s certainly had enough cerebral vascular accidents to have damage that would result in dementia.

The Media can SPIN it any way they'd like, the reality however, is not in line with what the article states.

EVERY women I've talked to perceived Biden's demeanor as rude and obnoxious. Let's face it. Most REAL women judge men on their ability to be POLITE in circumstances that demand respect. Biden was FAR removed from that.

And then there were these comments after the debate and they appeared on Politico of all places..

CTC:

I’ve always said that Simple Simon should reveal his DU handle in the interest of full-disclosure.

The definition of fun in Chicago: John Kass debating Simple Simon or May Mitchell....but that would be raysisssss.

The writer of the piece is from the South Side of Chicago - my guess is “Hyde Park” - home of the largest group of former card carrying communists in the country. He’s probably as trustworthy as Bill Ayers... if that.

I tend to agree with the link.

Whenever you get “moderates” saying it was RUDE, you had better believe it was RUDE; condescending; arrogant, just to name a few things.

My list includes, Brit Hume; Chris Wallace and a few scattered people over at CBS and NBC.
