It’s night on my side of the world.
Look, if you think I’m wrong... all I can say is... I hope you’re right.
I sincerely hope I’m wrong. But I don’t see Ryan doing that great.
This is a draw, in my mind, with Biden winning on points for aggression.
“Too many people equate talking over an opponent as strength”
Women usually despise it,,
Biden personifies the phrase “If you can’t dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with bullsh!t.
How do you have an intelligent debate with someone like Biden?
Agreed..she is so not letting Ryan answer...Now I know why I watch Fox...This gal would never make the cut there...she’s not that good looking.
All I hear from Joe is BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH.....I don’t even hear what he is saying. Just noise.
I notice how we see a SPLIT SCREEN WHEN RYAN IS TALKING TO DIMINISH HIS IMPACT but NEVER WHEN JOE BIDEN IS TALKING. EVER.
Economy . . . foreign affairs . . . and, oh yeah, ABORTION. One of these is not like the others! smh
Is it time for Biden to smirk and laugh about abortion?
Funnee!! Favorite comment on the thread -- and TRUE!! Biden is starting to trip up more, slur his words, and is making even less sense than ever. Good. Keep up the pressure. He looks like a petulant child!!
Republicans better get out there with Biden saying they didn’t know Benghazi wanted more people
Ryan lost this debate.
Ryan let himself get walked over by Biden and the Moderator.
I’m sure MSNBC will have a job offer waiting for her.
“Mr. Ryan, your response?”
“The....”
“I want to move on. Mr. Biden, your response?”
Radditz got her marching orders from ACLU as you can see tonight:
“On October 9, the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) disseminated an email alert, urging its supporters nationwide to lobby ABC News correspondent Martha Raddatz, who will moderate the October 11 debate between Vice President Joe Biden and the Republican nominee for vice president, Congressman Paul Ryan.
In the alert, Jennifer Dalven, who is the director of the ACLU “Reproductive Freedom Project,” complained that the abortion issue did not come up during the first presidential debate on October 3. She asked readers to send an email to Raddatz to urge that she press for answers “straight from the candidates’ mouths [on] where they stand on . . . access to abortion. . “
He is in the sense that he is acting like an adult while we have the fix in from the Moderator, and a belligerent ass who constantly interupting.
Which is Slo-Joe's motus-operundi, never let the 4 X 4 monster Jeep that Ryan is get traction.
Ryan gave a great answer on pro-life.
Yeah, he is polite, but it may not be the problem some think.
But, I think that the pessimism on how Ryan is doing I'm hearing is overdone. I think Ryan is doing quite well. He's not as polished as Biden, but he's earnest, and comes across as earnest and knowledgeable. It may not be a knockout for our side, but it won't be one for the other, either.
At the moment, Biden is throwing around crazy numbers... and interrupting. It may score small points, but I don't think it matters.
Ryan had a very bad start, but found his groove. He’s doing well.....Biden is just overtly obnoxious!
