Didn't watch it, but I'm glad to hear that Biden fact-smacked Ryan's unsubstantiated bull****. I imagine it would be hard to not be condescending towards a slick con-man running on empty nonsense.

"Obama sucks! Vote for us instead! We'll spend more, tax less and cut middle class spending, but it will somehow balance the budget, improve the economy and give free unicorns to everyone!" is not credible and deserves any condescension Biden gave it.

Biden got his ass handed to him.

But you vote for Obama. He is your speed .............. ;)

Well, CNN has Ryan winning by a little bit. Which means he sure did not lose. Ryan had the most to lose, as he was the most unlnown quantity in the debates. While I agree that a VP does not elevate a ticket, with a major gaff, they can pull it down.

Biden took the whole petulance thing way too far. That's what the focus groups are saying. Without all the smirking and interrupting, etc., he might have prevailed. Otherwise, as we move forward, Biden's petulence will be the story line. That's a loss.

I felt like Biden was looking a Ryan with a Holier than Thou sort of attitude. It seemed to me that through Biden's eyes, any utterance of any word coming from Romney or Ryan was blasphemous and if not for the audience(s) Biden wouldn't have even paid any attention to Ryan; like an ant under foot.

This is unbecoming a both a politician and a person.

That is what came out of the debate. Biden is getting hammered for it. Joe ****ed up.

Ok, I'll take your word for it because you just ooze credibility and you've never written a post everybody would regard as empty conservative bull****.
 
Spot the disconnect ...

Actually, the polls say Biden lost. Clearly lost.

On top of which, the CNN poll sampled only 381 people, a very small sample; and the 48 to 44 percent lead, which is a 9% lead, matches closely with the additional 7% of Republicans who were polled over Democrats.

So if that small sample reflects anything, it was that Democrats feel Biden won and Republicans feel Ryan won.

But when you look at what's being said, the biggest complaints from the right is that Biden smirked too much and was interrupting Ryan ... but the biggest complaints from the left is that Ryan ran from the questions and lost on the issues.

And rightly so. We don't need egotistical, holier than thou, "i'm always right and you're always wrong" people to govern us. Unfortunately given the way our system works and the social and economic status of the people we will forever have to choose from, these sort of people are hard to avoid.

On another note, has anyone noticed that throughout the campaigns I feel like Romney and Ryan have shown a deep and sincere interest in the well being of the middle class, let alone the country as a whole, while the Obama campaign doesn't to much more than attempt to defame Romney and Ryan?

Is it just me or do they continuously keep shooting themselves in the foot?

Ryan had a hard time giving any answers because of all the interruptions he suffered.

Ryan could have answered had he wanted to. I'm pretty sure I heard him speaking.

His problem was that he had no answers.

I particularly enjoyed the part where he was complaining about Obama's stimulus and Biden kicked him in the teeth by pointing out that Ryan asked for stimulus funds!

:lamo:lamo:lamo

Ryan was reduced at that moment to meekly admitting that he had. He lost that round badly.

Saying Biden clearly lost and Ryan won by a little bit is still saying that Ryan won. Given that CNN is notoriously bias for the left, I'd say the polls are probably more in favor of Ryan than they report.
 
Democrat's constant "the facts" is starting to sound like "the Truth". As if there is some undeniable physical evidence that, if only people saw these "facts" on huffington, then everyone would vote Dem.

Says the guy who proclaimed Biden the clear winner without actually having watched it. Hysterical. :lol:

Give us a break. All the local polls here(which have a far bigger sampling than 381) shown Ryan got his ass handed to him. You fanatics would claim any debate your candidate showed up at was a victory. The fact you aren't claiming an overwhelming victory is a good indication you know you really lost.

CNN, hardly a Conservative bastion.

Ryan: 48%

Biden: 44%

You can see that ..... right ?

CBS did a poll as well ... their poll of 500 (also small), indicated Biden won 50% to 31%.

nah - the right simply does not like it when you don't let them walk all over you unchallenged. Biden did what he had to do. He was strong and forceful and was not there to take any crap. Good for him.

A day ago I wondered here if the right would be as honest in assessing a poor performance by their man the way the left did with Obama. I doubted that they would.

The reaction from the right tonight confirms that.

I will never understand how anyone can say Biden won........Ryan whipped the condescending Biden like a stepchild........Biden was totally unprofessional with his smiling and interrupting tactics.........

When Obama sleepwalks through his debate showing no fight or emotion, the far right thinks this is the way its suppose to be for them. When Biden shows some fight and emotion and gets right back up in their face, its all pretend outrage and faux indignation..... "how dare he do that to little darlin' Paulie!!!!"

Gimme a break already. This ain't bean bag.

There is a very wide middle ground between the two extremes Obama and Biden have demonstrated so far, guy. It's called professionalism. Wanna know what it looks like? Watch BOTH Republican performances.

LOL. Right?

So far BOTH Democrats have spoken longer than their Republican opponents in their respective debates, and yet BOTH Democrats have been the only ones to cry to the moderator about their time.
