I would have been pretty shocked too having to put up with Biden acting like an Alzheimer patient who forgot to take his meds.

Most see it as a draw. Both made good points. But sorry Biden lovers, any advantage he may have had, was out shined by how poorly he conducted himself. And most people see this.
Thanks.

Like I said in an earlier post, we won't really know how people felt until they've slept on it and digested it. Wait 'til Monday and see if anybody gets a bounce. I doubt there will be one.

Something for you liberals to think about:

Romney had one of the most decisive victories ever in a debate last week.

Most are calling this one a draw but most highlight Bidens unprofessionalism

No one's vote is going to be changed by a VP debate. And there is no way 70 million even watched this. This fires up the liberal base, and also fires up our base due to Bidens rudeness.

You don't need a poll to see who won that debate if you watched it.

Ryan was countered and checked on each point.

Biden was prepared and waiting to counter Ryan on each point and didn't relent until the Moderator signaled.

Biden was definitely in defense mode. I would hope there is backlash on Biden's statement that the military wants and has asked to be smaller and leaner....really??? Although, there were not any great verbal blunders by Biden, I almost wonder if they may get a boost just because of his arrogent and smug smiling demeanor will get more attention and talk time. Unfortunately, sometimes negative publicity is better than no major publicity. However, I am impressed with Ryan's ability to stay calm as I could never do something like that, and keep control of my emotions.

True. You arent going to see any bounce from a VP debate. Especially this one where most see it as a draw.

So the Republicans are now powered by the "whining" factor?

Establishing Biden was rude to Ryan makes Ryan appear weak.
