The debate started with Biden in a strange laughing mood. At times he seemed derisive and even bazaar. You had to overlook this to concentrate on what he was saying. It seemed more of the same the President talked about. Taxing the rich, and remove the Bush tax cuts. Of course more spending {stimulus} is in that equation but Biden fortunatley left that out. But nothing really new on the economy except more of the same.
Ryan seemed to hold his own. He was clear and concise and knew what he wanted to say to bring forth the Romney plan. He made it clear to lower taxes so people would have more in their pockets to spend. Or for employers more to spend on their businesses. Also making it clear that this would increase tax revenue, which Biden couldn't quite grasp.
Biden also had to get in the Share - Even the Playing field for everyone Obama doctrine. He also played the Mediscare game to make seniors believe the Ryan-Romney plan was devastating and would destroy Medicare. He also added more smirking and having a regular heyday over what Ryan was saying. Only thing is only the VP was laughing.
The highest poll I have seen so far this evening is CNBC with Paul Ryan 56% - Joe Biden 36% Neither 8%.
I found Ryan tried to remain respectful and as the debate continued he became stronger and in more control of the speaking time. Speaking time ended up being Ryan 41 minutes and Biden 40 minutes. It only seemed Biden spoke longer.
As you can tell by my speech I did not enjoy the smiling - it seemed as though he was laughing at us - it was offensive.
