Ryan blows it durring the debate. . .

I'm not going to spend the time to get and read the transcript.  I watched it live.

Yeah...and we know from many decades of mistaken testimony just how accurate live observation translated to testimony is.  Not reading the transcripts is just like forgetting what was said with any kind of detail...just going with one's preconceived notions of what should have been said - same as wishful thinking.

With some talking head yammering in your ear about their impressions, if you're like most people.

Not true.  No commentary until the end.  Then there was plenty.

Ok. Out of curiosity, what did you think of Romney's performance last week?

It was good but not super.  I expected better out of Obama.  Obama's performance made Romney's  look better than it really was.

So his constant interruptions and talking over the moderator didn't rate a mention? (Nothing wrong with that, we're all biased in some way or another, it's just nice to be conscious of them)

I guess your idea of "constant interruptions and talking over the moderator" depends on the party of the perpetrator.  As I said earlier, I expect interruptions in a political debate.  I think Biden went overboard.  I think Romney did not.  You obviously disagree.

Got your guido glasses on tonight, I see.  In his world, if 10 is bad, then 1 is much worse.

No, Biden played interrupting cow too, just not as much as Romney, and only slightly more than Ryan. Both Biden and Ryan mostly shut up when Radditz was speaking, though.

Now, if you were saying that Biden was playing laughing cow I would agree.

Yeah, the Romney stand in got the George Hamilton treatment.
