Biden kicked Ryan's ass up and down the debate, he pounded Ryan at every lie he told. Biden did it with authority and poise and a great right hook. I'm sure John Boehner is crying right now!

21. Brief Summary
Thu Oct 11, 2012, 10:56 PM
Oct 2012

In the fist quarter the Ryan used most of the time to Bla...Bla...Blaa (full of vague statements) all awhile Joe tried to talk but Martha cut him off. Joe answered with short responses. I'd give it to Martha-not either of the candidates The topics 'discussed' were Social Security/Medicare

In the second quarter they spoke about Afghanistan- Martha started contradicting Joe. Joe stood the tallest with Martha. Ryan drank so much water I was betting he would piss his pants. Ryan made a comment about how politicians use fear to manipulate the public-yet his closing statement was filled with fear.

In the third quarter the topics discussed was Abortion. Ryan stood strong behind the presidential candidate saying that abortions are acceptable for exceptionable cases-unlike his previous comments which contradict his statement tonight. Biden kept it short and sucker punched Ryan by pointing out his contradictions. This quarter went to Biden.

In the fourth quarter they had their closing statement. Joe called Martha out for not giving him equal time and made his clear statement while Ryan used fear and his 'personal experiences' to try to pull out a last point. Another point to Biden.

That is my summary.

Didn't let Ryan get away with a thing. "Magnificent" is the word that comes to mind...
