Oh sure, I caught it. That was a good one. But reading in the WSJ a couple of weeks ago a report from the inside of the Romney camp, I understood that in preparing for the debates they voted there against using “zingers”. I think it was a mistake. Again, I think these debates are in part much like professional wrestling.

Ryan was overwhelmingly better in the close. Biden rambled and seemed distracted. Ryan was clear, firm, precise and effective.

Agreed. The Romney camp needs to study up on Ronald Reagan's successful and devastating use of zingers in his presidential debates. It's a fine art in politics, which goes back a very long way.
