Ryan blows it durring the debate. . .

[heironymouspasparagus]

It just dawned on me today that for the first time in my life there is someone on a presidential ticket who is younger than I am.   

I love it.  You make me laugh....

[Hoss]

Thinking Ryan probably should have worn a cup tonight....

[heironymouspasparagus]

Full body armor.

Favorite tweet/FB update of the night from someone who is watching..comes from Bill Maher.

"Hello 9 1 1? There s an old man beating a child on my tv"

I think someone got kicked in the junk tonight....maybe he can run it off with a 2:50 minute marathon!

It seems all the Republicans have to hang their hat on is "Biden laughed too much."

Well of course!  That and they didn't like the moderator.  And Biden interrupted.  And they didn't like his hairplugs...

Oh..the one good thing Ryan could take from this debate?

He could probably get a deal endorsing bottled water of some sort...or Gatorade.

Funny how interrupting cow Romney is OK, but Biden was off the mark.

Yeah, one C-SPAN caller pointed out his constant sipping and said he should see a doctor.

There are people in this forum high-fiving each other over someone's "victory" in that debate? How sad a state must the left be in.

You seem troubled by the happiness of others. Let it go.

I thought the moderator did an excellent job.  I don't thing she could have prevented Biden's interruptions or guffaws, that's just Joe.

Both sides will find things they like about this debate.  I think it offered an excellent contrast between the candidates and their administrative theme.

We will see how it affects the polls.  I think Peggy Noonan gave a great account of the debate that seems to be consistant with what CNN, MSNBC, and even FOX reported as the sentiment among their undecided polling.  http://online.wsj.com/article/declarations.html

I think Joe Biden did what the president cannot, and I think Paul Ryan was successful in swiping away the emotional jabs, interruptions and guffaws native to communication with Biden.


Biden's buffoonery was popular with Chris Matthews, and for most on the left, that's all that matters.

Another sad by Guido...awww..

The GOP has already adopted this as their new meme.

Funny.  Romney does the same thing and he's applauded for it.  Ryan gets his donkey kicked by the old man and the only thing the GOP can trot out is bad form.  Dish it out but can't take it?  Yup.

How incredibly predictable.  Even the left capitulated when Romney won his debate.  What the pundits on the right are saying about last night tells me everything I ever wanted to know about the Elephants.

Another tweet of last night I found hilarious, was, unexpectedly, this:

"I miss Jim Lehrer".  That came from turdblossom (Karl Rove).  Haha.

Really?  Romney did not do the same thing at all.  He was exceptionally respectful to the president, and he was respectful to the gravity of the issues.  Romney may smirk a bit when his opponent makes an inaccurate claim, but Mr. Biden outright laughed at real issues, and provided 90 minutes of footage that is gold for the GOP.
