He sounds like a generic Republican, which is about all I expected from him. He may be knowledgeable, but he’s not a forceful speaker, and it doesn’t look like Romney’s sudden aggressiveness has rubbed off on him.
You are right.

But Dick Morris is a political operative. Average people don’t appreciate Bidens facial grimaces and jacking around like a 5th grade kid. Ryan is doing an excellent job in the eyes of people who want adults in charge.

She doesn’t let Ryan finish his thought. She let’s Biden talk almost twice as much as Ryan.

Ryan needs to interrupt more often.

Yes, he did hit a homer with his Biden slam about faulty remarks coming out of his big, bug mouth!

Here comes the HUGE LIES from BiteMe regarding SS and Medi-scare!

Couldn’t ABC have chosen someone that that doesn’t look like a dog?

Joe is overplaying his hand a bit with the laughing and smirking.

I give chick credit for launching with Libya. I also give Biden credit for being on point. This is not Obama Redux. However, he’s lying and Ryan needs to call it out.

I give negatives for Biden for being so negative, so condescending. He’s also making the Gore mistake. The sighs and the chuckles in the background.

The laugh line by Ryan was not only a great ZING, it was a Reaganesque “There you go again”. It may have been the one line that shows an upbeat Ryan versus an angry, crappy Biden.

Biden just tried to call Ryan another Palin.

Biden strategy; fire up the crumbling democrat entitlement base. Biden’s laughing will backfire with non base though, condescension and weird rude noises will in fact alienate the non base. Disagree strongly with Morris. Biden will gaffe big time. Just watch. It’s coming.

Ryan better grow a couple fast and get up in the geezer’s face!

Politics is a blood sport and Ryan is foolishly trying to be a gentleman.

Ryan needs to flat out call Joe a liar.

Ryan needs to be much more aggressive.

I must say, Sarah would instinctively know how to have Joe foaming at the mouth by now. Ryan is so far a disappointment.

If Raddatz wants to debate she should sit next to Biden. What a setup.

Biden couldn’t wait to get Sarah Palin’s name in the mix.

True. I liked Biden trying to drag Sarah into the debate. People that use their head subconsciously know there have to be death panels in a government plan.

In an odd sort of way, Biden's approach makes Obama even look weaker.

It makes me wonder how many people who are thinking that Biden should be on the top of the ticket, rather than Obama. At least Biden knows something about what's been going on for the last four years. Obama looks more and more like he's spent the last four years partying, golfing, and picking up the awards around the world.
