Vice-Presidential Debate Live Commentary Thread

[Mister Twister]

Biden is doing relatively well, but his laughing and sinister remarks could hurt him.  30 minutes in, I still have to say advantage: barely Ryan.

Stop trolling

[Joe Biden 2020]

News Flash:  Biden is not winning this debate right now, unfortunately.

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

Going rogue.

[MyRescueKittehRocks]

Uh Oh! Throwing Granny under the bus comes up, again...

Which Obamacare does to the elderly by slashing Medicare.

So, thinking Ryan is winning this debate is trolling?

[Ljube]

So far a draw.

[Tender Branson]

Biden is winning and it will fire up our base again. The re-invigorated Obama will do the rest.

[Eraserhead]

Can we have Biden fill in for Obama in the rest of the debates?

[Stranger in a strange land]

Ryan won foreign policy with more coherent sentences, but Biden is beating the sh**t of Ryan right now.

Ouch, Ryan's getting trashed. trashed.

Biden's good, but not great. I wish Obama debated like this last week.

[○∙◄☻¥tπ[╪AV┼cVê└]

You know, this debate might make me vote for Obama again just to get Biden.

[Starbucks Union Thug HokeyPuck]

Go Joe!  

Love our attack dog.

[America™]

Biden is acting like a complete ass. There's a difference between being correct and being a jerk.

Which is why Obama is surging on Intrade?

Biden is sparking the base. I'm feeling it.

[Joe Biden 2020]

Right now, it's no more than a draw.

[dirks]

This independent can't take Biden's BS anymore. Smug, arrogant, interrupted Ryan like 8 times.

[Paleobrazilian]

Biden was doing great but tried too hard now.

[President von Cat]

Biden is taking Ryan to the woodshed. This is amazing.

I just wish he would stop interrupting and laughing.

I don't go by Intrade.

[Dereich]

I'd say Biden's winning this right now, but its not as much of a win as Romney got. Ryan's putting up enough of a fight to make the win decently narrow. But Biden really seems like he loves this, like its what he lives for.

He's a happy and somewhat deranged warrior.

[Biden 2024]

So far a draw.

Biden is destroying Ryan. I am also not a Dem Hack and recognized Obama was getting Creamed by Romney in the debate. Biden easy win.

Intrade is a good indicator of the consensus. If Obama is gaining, Biden is being perceived as winning the debate.
