Biden’s tactic of constantly interrupting, smirking, and bluster will backfire like Al Gore’s sighs at his debate with GWB.

[sonic109]

Biden is a professional liar and scumbag. Ryan has no chance against him
Biden is EXACTLY the kind of person we need to get out of our government

[samtheman]

Does Ryan get to speak at all?

[Hoodat]

It wasn't an intelligence failure, it was a failure to ACT on intelligence.

Exactly.

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

The Blood letting begins Tomorrow.

[Fresh Wind]

His gaffe may not be spoken. It will be his stupid smirk.

Remember Algor's sighing. Asshole Biden is 10 time worse.

[Signalman]

Biden is coming across as a bully. Frank Luntz’s focus group will not be pleased.

[ATOMIC_PUNK]

Good God how did this man ever make vice President i’m waiting for Biden to start Crying and throwing a tantrum hes been well versed over the last 5 weeks and he still can’t get it right cause he knows he’s lying

But at best this is going to be a draw....until the tax question, the CNN meter has been rather even...joe may save Obama tonite, but he’s sacrificing his own 2016 ambition in the process. Tonight is joes, the du crowd is going crazy, they are thrilled. But some of the tax stuff will stick.

[ETL]

And to think this idiot was actually coached for this! He’s sitting there laughing at EVERYTHING. Friggin jerk.

[what's up]

Surprised so many have anything negative to say about Ryan.

I think he's GREAT!

Ryan comes across as self-assured, mature and reasoned.

Biden comes across as a blustering buffoon.

Ryan very smooth.

SHUT UP, JOE!!!

[mancini]

I. Despise. Joe. Biden. That. Is. All.

[kevao]

This is a much different forum that what I was expecting. This Biden first 45 minutes, Ryan second 45 minutes certainly is new. Ryan will get to say a few words during that last 45 minutes....won’t he?

[Mears]

Biden is just plain rude.

Ruh-roh Biden says admin didn’t know about security concerns in Benghazi — evidence to contrary

@SamFeistCNN
The CNN focus group liked Ryan on Iran. Women. And he seems to be doing better than Biden with Women. #CNNUndecides
