CNN just called it a "slight Ryan win"

I loved that.

Actually he said it was 8.5 when they took office, and 10% now.. it actually climbed. When Joe said that represented the nation I almost fell out of my chair thinking he stepped in it, but it went on without notice.

The most ironic response of the evening was when talking about negative campaigning. Biden admitted both sides had engaged in it, Ryan's response was a tirade against Obama.

Don't tell me they've flip-flopped on that too?

Do you understand the difference between CAPABLE to be President, and the nominee?

F Chuck Todd just said he cant remember the last time a VP debate was basically a tie. Usually the challenger loses.

The VP should be respectful and professional. Biden was neither.

Oh, that's even better. I guess I forgot the numbers, but I haven't forgotten how I giggled at Joe's expression. He didn't laugh.

Of course, but you would have thought they'd list some positive points from the evening to give people a reason to donate..

CNN is using registered voters for its polls so its pretty much meaningless as 99% of those ppl have an opinion set in stone.

THe Focus group CNN was interesting, as they split as a tie. Looking at some other polls of uncommited voters shows more of a biden lean, like the CBS poll.

While not as bad as Obama's thrashing, just looking at a few GOP pundits comments around the web and a reactoin from multiple sources, Biden is the slight winner, especially with him being the "under dog" by expectations (which Ididn't understand why but meh).
