Hurry-up Liberals of the msnbc finally changed the equation, and it stands now at 48% or Biden. Another orchestrated poll..
Well, if I could simply say that Biden was boring as I could bother listening through, I would say he got most of the time. Whomever figured voting Biden up didn’t have a clue what listening to this guy would sound like.
Ryan did very well but not as well as he might have done if his train of thought had not been interrupted numerous times by Biden and, at times, the biased moderator. But Biden’s grotesque smiles, grimaces, smirks, head shakes, and eye rolls detracted from any debate points he scored. Biden was a blabbermouth and most of what he said was empty rhetoric.
I thought Ryan’s answer about abortion was heart-felt and sincere.
Biden came across as giving the answer every one knows is politically correct.
Cuz you know in this country there is only one “right answer” on abortion.
And far as the media is concerned, Ryan failed their phony test.
So much for a fair and well-considered debate.

“I also was disgusted with that woman interrupting Ryan whenever you could see that Ryan was going to do one of his efficient, excellent comments-she butted in. I almost turned off the debate, Bidens and her puerile rudeness was so annoying.”
Agree. My wife and I nearly turned the debate off also. We felt she was trying to keep Ryan off track. We also believed, joe couldn’t stand for an hour and a half. They sat for joe’s benefit.
Biden came off as such a prick..if that is the way Obama is going to behave next week Mitt Romney will be known as MR. PRESIDENT..the only people that loved Biden tonight were the left wing loons..everyone else, the undecided voters and the Independent voters were absolutely DISGUSTED with the way that Biden behaved. Paul Ryan showed himself tonight to be a VERY smart man, and a very calm man..My Mom wanted to go through the TV and smack Biden across the face..that is what Biden wanted, to piss Ryan off, instead Ryan just remained calm
**What's to smirk about when discussing a dead Ambassador? Iran and the bomb? The unemployment rate in Biden's hometown of Scranton? Which, by the way, was clearly news to Biden.**
What a smirk jerk! Anything substantive Biden had to say was diminished by the supercilious smirk.
I think Congressman Ryan being double teamed yet handled himself very well, but Biden is a typical demorat smirk-jerk.
IMHO Ryan knocked it out of the park with his closing statement. It was delivered so well with him looking directly at the camera that I had to go back and watch it all over again. The wife is saying that an awful lot of women are also repulsed by bidens behavior for what its worth.
That was why she was there-—your analysis is perfect—she was there to “keep Ryan off track.”
I was so impressed with Ryan’s maturity as he was being “Alinskyed” from not only Biden but that awful woman.
But I know Ryan is used to the obnoxious Marxist tactics of the left. I bet he even read, “Rules for Radicals”.
FYI the DailyKooks are bragging on Twitter that they are “freep”ing the poll. Let’s keep this going
“Biden came off as such a prick......”
Watched the debate, with my wife, and her 95 year old, hard core democrat, mother. She will for the first time, in her long life, be voting for Romney. My Mother-In-Law was completely disgusted with joe’s behavior. Man, I love joe tonight!!!
Found it interesting that towards the end it looked like Joe ran out of gas...a condition brought about either by 2 hours of blowhard-ing or simply maxed-out on bullsh t.
The democrats want this to go away, and fast. They want the Sunday talkers to be about anything else rather than this clusterfluck.
Didn’t he say Syria was 5 times bigger?
The left non-assholes? There are none.
My Mom was going to vote for Romney no matter what but she has voted Democrat in the past(Last time she voted Dem was for Clinton) she wanted to see how Biden would behave since she doesn’t watch much cable news..and she was absolutely disgusted with Biden..everything about him was creepy..he looked like a pedophile you would see on your local sex offender registry..meanwhile Paul Ryan was very calm and she said that he came across to her as very intelligent(And she really didnt know much about him)
