(CNN) – A CNN poll of debate watchers released following Thursday's matchup between Rep. Paul Ryan and Vice President Joe Biden showed 48% of respondents named Ryan the winner and 44% said Biden won.

The smirks and laughs were strictly psy-ops for the tv audience; Biden tried to make it appear that he & Raddatz were sharing some kind of insider understanding of Ryan’s inferiority, as if she was looking back at him and smirking/laughing too.

AceofSpadesHQ headline:

“Ryan Wins CNN’s Poll of Undecided Likely Voters, 48-44%
Also Wins on Likability, Ryan 53% Biden 43% “

Very nice

The dems don’t realize what a bed crapping Biden did tonight.

Don't think the MSM will be able to clean that mess up, expect to see a Romney/Ryan bump up in the national polls in a few days.

Remember the first Bush / Gore debate in 2000? The flash polls showed a strong majority though Gore won the debate, yet his poll numbers tanked in the days that followed because he was so nasty with all of the very loud sighing noises Gore was making every time Bush was speaking.

Sampling error is +/- 5%.

That makes it 53% - 39%!

Biden came across as a real misogynist—he was awful to the woman moderator, and she was trying to help him. He read her the riot act several times and he will make women’s skin crawl. YUK—he is a real Pr___k.

Does anyone suppose this is actually the Romney margin over Obama if you take away the Wilder Effect? When they don’t have to worry about being accused of racism, maybe the race really is Romney +4.

Biden made a mockery out of the position of Vice President tonight. The sad thing is this performance was a conscious decision to be rude and obnoxious. The Obama administration thinks that this is the type of behavior that our society now tolerates. They think that the American public is made up mostly of idiots at about the 4th grade level, in other words registered democrats.

It was worse than that.

That they changed the numbers (added more viewers) to make it closer.

[snarkytart]

No you didn’t. This is not one of those vote as many times as you like online polls. This was an actual poll conducted of those who watched the debate. MOE is 4%.

[houeto]

Thank you for the post.

Biden will also turn off women with his hair plugs and turkey neck.

[ReformationFan]

Agreed. And a sad show of our decline as a culture.

Do you have a link to this ap poll?

[dfwgator]

Ryan did to Biden what Verlander did to the A’s.

Go Ryan....Go Tigers!

I was already corrected snarky. Please see post 18.

Democrats seem to be convinced that you win a debate by being rude and disruptive. Al Gore did as much against Bush. I guess if you don't have any substance to your ideology, you really have very few other options.

CNN must have gotten a phone call from the White House. Their title for the article now says it was a tie!

“CNN Poll: Debate watchers split on who won VP debate”

But the link still has the Ryan win embedded!
