Its is a DEBATE. Not a fight. Before you people get all giddy, you better stop and think what NON liberals are going to see in his performance. Not everyone is a rude jerk or supports it like you people.
Was a toss up debate. I'd maybe give a slight edge to Biden before you factor in all of his smirks, laughs and just down right rudeness. People who watched it on TV will remember that more than anything else.
No , I remember that it looked like the republicans just can't find enough theaters of war in the middle east. Iran and Syria ...Then that Ryan wanted the stimulus money was painful. You are delusional.
After tonights debate it shows how much Ryan is not even close to being ready to be VP. Ryan does not have enough experience that makes him VP ready Ryan will not even be ready for at least 10 more yrs.
Wow!! Really, you do remember that Ryan has MORE experience then out current buffoon in chief did when he took office.

Thanks for posting this. I was curious to know what others outside of city-data members were saying. Guess I wasn't the only one who thought the over zealous grinning and smirking was inappropriate. Not very statesman-like.
Send all the hostile tweets you want, our focus group--and I agree w them--think it was a draw. Each guy did what he had to do for his team

I thought the greatest point that Biden made was on social security and medicare...WHO DO YOU TRUST. The Rupublicans who have been trying to get rid of it from its inception or us. That is a great point.
