Biden's debating skills are like a post-loss Les Miles press conference without the charm and intellect.

It seems to me that Biden is trying to bully his younger opponent. Staring him down, interrupting him every other sentence when Ryan usually lets him finish. I'm sure the liberal media won't give this debate to Ryan, but Ryan's restraint is commendable.

That is exactly what he's doing.

The advantage of a Vice Presidential debate: They can have the knife fight that the Presidential candidates can't afford until really late in the game.

Who likes a bully? Indeed, the liberal media is already giving it to Biden. They are wrong! In the photo below, Biden looks like the idiot he is. Caption from Huffington Post:

That pic doesn't really do any favors to Ryan, either.

So, the only response these idiots have for the soldier dismayed by the vitriolic tone of political rhetoric is...bashing the other guy.

SMH

Biden clearly won the debate. Did Ryan ever actually answer a question?

Ryan said he would offer honesty if elected. HAHA

Hmm ... DD, what is Ryan doing that seems to trouble you. He is serious, gesturing, and looking at the moderator who asked the question.

Biden's demenour was definitely not presidential or vice-presidential. We'll know soon by watching the polls. Could he have cost cost Obama the election? Hmm ...

His face doesn't really give off anything remotely "serious"... unless that's how you want to perceive it.

Oh wait a minute...

A debate is nothing but an exercise in perception...

People on the left thought Vice President Biden crushed Rep. Ryan. People on the right thought Rep. Ryan easily handled a smug Vice President Biden.

A debate, especially a Vice Presidential one, is nothing but red meat for the bases.

Obviously, who ever you supported before the debate, won the debate. It was the nature of this debate. While I disagree that Biden won, he said all the things the Dems wanted to hear. Ryan did the same.

I got up to take a leak during the debate, but Joe Biden interrupted me mid-stream!

It's called a middle class tinkle break

LMAO, Scott.

I couldn't even go as he was staring me down the whole time.

Ding ding ding... we have a winner.

Not wanting Big Bird, who makes plenty of money in the market and doesn't need subsidies, to steal from taxpayers is "killing Big Bird?"
