About all I saw was a young man prepared to engage, and an old man freaked out that he might have to.
Biden’s complete debate training consisted of three things.
1. Making absurd expressions on his face non stop for 90 minutes
2. Interrupting Ryan so he couldn’t get a complete string of two or more sentences out.
3. Saying over and over again, “That’s not true, when it was.”
The Obama team is desperate. Their whole political world is coming crashing down, and neither of them can take a chance on addressing factual comments from the other team.
They have to dismiss Romney and Ryan’s comments, because they can’t counter them on point.
We can expect the “That’s not true!” pattern to continue on Tuesday. I hope Romney cuts him off at the shoe laces.
Congratulations to Paul Ryan for keeping his cool.
He took the advice of Napoleon Bonaparte: “Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake.”
Amazingly bone-headed video has nothing to do with the article.
I saw someone calm, collected, focussed, serious and above stooping to Biden’s level in the face of Biden’s rudeness. And personally I liked the quiet rebuke, “it would serve the people better if we all stopped interrupting each other” or something like that. Such a polite stilleto thrust must have heaped coals on Biden’s head, to borrow an image from the Gospel.
Well you can use dogs, or cats or husbands. I like to use careers. Under that scenario we have Biden=used car salesman and Ryan = fireman.
