I agree. I really don’t give a rat’s a$$ what Dick Morris thinks.

Biden is coming off as a jerk.

Biden is lying,

That's losing

but he’s coming across as more confidant and aggressive than Ryan.

More like a babbling idiot who makes no real sense.

Biden showing his ass and Ryan calling him on it.

[ETL]

Biden’s an even bigger jerk than I thought. The whole thing is a friggin joke to him.

[badpacifist]

I agree. Ryan is “Biden” his time and being careful. Let Joe be Joe. Ryan is doing fine there is no reason to not let a jerk make himself a jerk.

[Jane Long]

I hear ya! This is a critical time for FR to be up at full speed.

This is the election of our lifetime.

May have to read FR posts tomorrow =(

[snarkytart]

This I do agree with, that kind of thing only appeals to the media and the creeps at DU. Biden looks old, smarmy and not confident...just aggressive. They are two very different things.

[matt04]

Ryan comes off as serous, Bite Me comes off ans a immature laughing child.

[mylife]

IT IS A JOKE TO BIDEN!!

[mykroar]

Ryan got a nice zing on Biden about interrupting and having to make up for lost ground.

[Eaker]

You are giving Biden WAY too much credit.

He is coming off as a smirking liar.

Every time he shakes his head and laughs he loses a few thousand votes. Ditto every interruption.

[exit82]

Martha better get this debate under control.

joe keeps interrupting Ryan.

SHUT UP JOE!

[Zeneta]

It seems Ryan came in with a plan to give Biden more time so he can say something really stupid.

[Gabrial]

Biden interrupts and is rude. The majority of people detest Obamacare. Ryan just slapped Biden hard on Obamacare.

[txmissy]

Joe BIden is so condescending....it makes me sick.

[DirtyDawg]

Biden may be winning in the eyes of the wonks but he is being such an overbearing grinning prick people won’t like him

[eyedigress]

AARP and AMA just thrown under the Biden Bus.

Biden claims Ryan taking to much time.

[SquarePants]

Ryan’s not very good at this.
