My Take on the Joe Biden - Paul Ryan Vice Presidential Debate
OK, here’s what I saw:
Joe Biden was argumentative, rude, he interrupted, he was a disruptive force and he had an ally in Martha Raddatz.
Joe Biden came off as an oafish ass, in other words, Barack Hussein Obama got his wish, Joe was just being Joe.
Joe Biden had NO real argument, nothing that made sense, so he ranted and laughed a lot, he came off as highly unprofessional and NOT as someone that would make you feel the least bit confident if he were to have to take up the mantle of President.
Paul Ryan was trying very hard to use facts and figures but he was allowing Joe Biden to interrupt. Ryan was interrupted and challenged by Martha Raddatz on several occasions and he was far too polite for MY taste.
BUT … Ryan was far more professional, and gave a fine showing of himself.
It was VERY obvious, at least to me, that Martha Raddatz was a *partner* for Biden, a tag-team partner on several occasions. When Ryan was making a telling point Raddatz would interrupt, question Ryan herself, actually challenge him or change the topic and move back to Biden.
Much was made about Raddatz and her Obama Connection and many had hoped that she could put that aside and assume at least some degree of journalistic integrity.
That was NOT to be the case.
To Ryan’s credit, he didn’t get into any heated exchanges with Joe Biden, maybe this was running through his mind: If a wise man contends with a foolish man, whether the fool rages or laughs, there is no peace. Proverbs 29:9
I heard one of the FOX talking heads say that this debate was not terribly important because no one ever votes based on who the #2 was on the ticket.
THAT is pure BULLSHIT!
I know quite a few people that claimed they didn’t vote for McCain in ’08, they said their vote was for Palin, and that is the most STUPID thing they could have EVER said.
Not to be bashing Palin, but to vote for a particular candidate because you don’t like him but you love his running mate? Seriously?
If McCain has won HE would be POTUS and Sarah Palin would have been the Joe Biden of McCain’s administration, the Palin GAFFE machine.
OK, so I bashed her a little. 
I don’t believe Paul Ryan WON the election for Mitt Romney; it will take Romney totally eviscerating Obama in the next 2 debates to make that happen.
I also don’t believe Biden did Obama any real favors. The VP Debate was a chance to see what the #2 guy was made of, and frankly, I liked what I saw in Paul Ryan a lot more than ANYTHING I saw from Joe Biden.
Biden and the MSM couldn’t sell it. The latest polls put Ryan the winner and Biden a rude little bastard.
CNN Poll:
48% of registered voters watching debate say Ryan won. 44% say Biden won. Sampling error is +/- 5%.
Next week Romney/Obama 2.
I think that you are spot on with yout breakdown. Joe Biden looked like what he is; a fool. Ryan came off as the adult in the room and he did a very good jod considering it was 2 on 1 with the moderator interupting him more than Biden did.
Just a thought.
Jeff Dunham’s “Walter” would make a better “Biden”
Biden’s bottom like to fix the economy and unemployment is to raise taxes on the wealthy. Ryan tried to talk of Romney’s 5-point plan to fix the economy and unemployment but all Biden wanted to do was raise taxes. Social Security and Medicare has to be fixed for future generations but Biden didn’t want to hear it.
Biden does a good job at presenting himself as an average “Joe” but in reality, he’s been in the Senate for 40 years and has had the best this nation has to offer at his back and call. Also, remember how the Democrats hammered Chaney over draft deferments? Biden received the same number as Chaney: 5
Stolen and linked. What a damned farce!
In a real policy debate — I have taught policy debate for over a decade — Biden might well have been tossed out for his disdainful behavior. He broke so many rules that the mind reels.
Well, we did see one thing on display: that the Left just wants the right to STFU and will interrupt and mug for the camera to accomplishing the silence.
The moderator’s bias stuck out like a sore thumb.
If it were not a VPOTUS debate, one might have thought the guy behaving inappropriately was on bath salts.
Did you notice Biden’s right eye?
Half closed, and dead looking.
Can Biden see anything out of that eye?
I believe he has had a stroke.
Biden has been a ‘politician” his whole life.
Back-slapper professional.
Rode daily for like 40 years on that commuter train between DC and Baltimore.
And that’s all he knows.
Biden acted like a PP. A political prick!
And the moderator was a Biden “buddy”. What crap! And she failed to save “joe”.
I think I’ve seen this debate on the Simpsons. Only instead of Bart writing sentences on the blackboard it was Ryan doing calculus. And instead of Nelson sitting in the back of the room, it was Biden blowing raspberries from his armpit.
Keep your powder dry
As a career politician, Biden is also a career liar and has it refined to an art. He’s so good at it, he can make things up as he goes along and has the ability to present these lies as facts. Even when you know he’s lying, he can make it sound so convincing. He’s a perfect example for term limits.
