PAUL RYAN SCORES CRUSHING VICTORY OVER BIDEN IN DEBATE

Posted on | October 11, 2012 | 117 Comments

UPDATED 10:22 p.m. ET: Headline from John Nolte:

MEDIA HAMMERS BIDEN:
‘STOP SMIRKING!’ ‘WEIRD,’ ‘JERK’

UPDATED 10:19 p.m. ET: A few more thoughts from Twitter:

I’m going to have to start putting together my column for the American Spectator.

UPDATED 10:03 p.m. ET: It’s clear that Biden was advised to be aggressive, to bulldoze, interrupt and filibuster, to treat Ryan with contempt. The astonishing thing (or, maybe not) is how moderator Martha Raddatz is enabling that strategy.

UPDATED 9:39 p.m. ET: VodkaPundit is drunkblogging. Biden is drunkdebating.

UPDATED 9:35 p.m. ET:

UPDATED 9:12 p.m. ET: Biden interrupted Ryan’s second answer to accuse Ryan of “malarkey” — because Joe’s an expert on “malarkey”!

* * PREVIOUSLY 8:30 p.m. ET * *

This is rather a bold headline, consdiering that it’s now 8:30 p.m. ET and the debate in Danville, Ky., doesn’t even begin for another half-hour, but I’ve been saying for the past week that Ryan would make mincemeat of Biden, so there’s little additional risk in going all-out balls-to-the-wall with my headline.

Ace, on the other hand, is trying to tamp down expectations for reasons that are entirely factual and logical, which is OK, if that’s how you roll.

Me, I’ve got no problem going big. Dave Weigel asks, “Can Joe Biden Save Barack Obama?” And I say, “RAAAAACIST! How dare you say Obama needs a white man to save him?”

Anyway, consider this your Official Vice Presidential Debate Thread. There’s an NFL game on tonight, if you’d rather watch that, then check back here later to see exactly how Ryan stomped Biden.

    Liberty is the only system that ended and prevents further slavery. Your masters are trying their best to assure an end to Liberty.

    Why do you think we aren’t lockstep liberals?

    Obviously someone doesn’t remember which party ended slavery…. and which one has always defended it. Plantation / collective, tomato / tomahto…

    So, who exactly is ignoring the law and ruling by edict these days, Chomsky?

    In general, differences of opinion can be quite stimulating.

    In the specific case of little leftist toadies, not so much.

    Sneering, snarling, crazy, angry old man, butt-in Biden.

    Digusting disrespect for the American people, millionaire elitist, slobbering, huge dentured Biden LOST.

    Ryan WON. See all the polls even left-wing.

    Romney/Ryan 2012.

    Team Obama has some explaining to do: Was this malarkey or “other stuff” from Biden last night?

    A few random thoughts on last night’s VP debate…

    Stacy McCain called it for Ryan before the debate even started. That’s one reason he’s the Gonzo Reporter Of The Century, doing the job our lame-stream media won’t do. Of course it helps that he was right….
