You scramble around like chickens with their heads cut off, trying to spin Ryan's utter defeat into something salvageable. You are crazy if you actually believe he won. Biden didn't like getting lied to and neither do the majority of Americans that KNOW Biden won; his incredulous response was justified.

Quite the contrary. Think about his rude behavior, For those who watched the Vice Presidential candidates debate



When a wise person debates with a fool, the fool rages and laughs, and there is no peace and quiet. Proverbs 29:9



VP Joe BidenThe 2012 Vice President Debate last night in Danville, Kentucky was a draw. Democrat Vice President Biden executed a strategy of throwing GOP nominee Congressman Paul Ryan with distractions and interruptions. Ryan did not seem intimidated and remained calm and confident. He was respectful of the elder politician, even while being interrupted 82 times in 90 minutes. Biden interrupted 82 times in the course of a 90-minute debate. It was unreal. He directly contradicted the sworn testimony of State Department officials.



As any parent can tell you, when children are not being truthful or trying desperately to be believed, they often talk fast, interrupt the other person giving facts, make faces, laugh nervously, and mouth the other person is lying, and generally mug out of false frustration.



These antics leave one knowing they are only trying to control the situation. This is not behavior reflecting strength and confidence. The constant Biden interruptions were by design to prevent Ryan from detailing the failed Obama record and presenting details of the Romney plan.



This allows the Democrats to continue the assertion Romney and Ryan are not giving any specifics. Funny thing is, where is any real plan other than to “raise taxes on the rich” and redistribute to “level the playing field” coming out of the Obama and Biden campaign with specifics or not? For example, what does “level the playing field” mean exactly in policies?



A CNN post debate poll results asking “Who won?”gave Ryan a slight edge at 48% versus 44% for Biden. The same CNN poll rewarded Ryan as being the more likeable of the two by 10 points. Other media polls reflected Biden as the winner by a wider margin.



Both candidates fired up their base, but more than likely neither did little to move the needle significantly with the 6-10% of undecided voters. Biden’s antics may have played well with the left, but it was a losing strategy and not effective with the middle.

The CNN News poll showed 48% thought Ryan won and only 44% said Biden won.



What lie do you say Ryan said? Be specific!



If Ryan was such a poor opponent, why did Biden keep interrupting him?



And what about Biden's lies? I'll be specific!



There is documented evidence (memos, etc.) that the Libyan embassy warned of Teliban unrest and requested multiple times for guards, but Biden denied it.



Besides, how could Ryan have told so many lies (as you claim)? Biden interrupted him 82 times and the moderator interrupted him 30+ times.



If people had the chance to listen to him, they might have discovered the logic in his position! Biden, however, tried to rob the American public of that opportunity.

Can you name one exact lie? I can name at least THREE lies that Biden told. Here they are:

1) Biden said the Embassy in Syria never asked for more security. Yet several testimonies said 2 times they asked for more security.

2) Biden said only those that make over one million will have their taxes raised. False. Obama clearly said those that make over $250,000

3)Biden said catholic churches and Catholic schools would not have to offer birth control. False, They are presently being sued for EXACTLY that reason.

Now those are the FACTS.

BTW Biden was a CLOWN at the debates and I would NEVER want a clown to be VP let alone president. He has no class.

So I can smile like a goat and interrupt others while they're talking and it's seen as a "win"?

No, Biden interrupted him nearly every time he opened his mouth...last count I heard was 82 times.



When he wasn't interrerupting him, he was clowning, making faces, and noises for the camera, basically being utterly disgusting, rude, arrogant, and disrespectful.



Romney and his debate prep team can expect the same from Obama...and will be prepared for it.

Republicans never admit defeat. According to instapolls democrats have fun 8 of 9 of the last debates. Yet the media covers it like they were even or Republicans won.

all goes back to class. Since libs admit they don't have any, it shows by cheering for a man that made an *** out of himself to the world. If you think that was good, it explains why you dropped out in 10th grade. Get a job loser.

Because that's a lie, and almost no one would disagree.
