So What Happened?

I think it is going to be hysterical for several reasons the top being two nearly polar opposite personalities.

What is kind of sad I am watching not for content but humor.

Amy: Why did you change your answer?

Stacy, keeping this light but Troy found the funniest picture on the internet about the debate teleprompter designed for Obama. The picture shows a helmet with two teleprompter screens attached like rear view mirrors. Of course all of this superimposed on a picture of Obama.

I think it's going to be interesting. I also think they're going to be a lot of jokes for Leno, Letterman and all the others. It'll be hilarious!

Personally, out of Romney, Ryan and Obama, Biden is the only one who seems human. I find it kind of refreshing to listen to someone who isn't scripted.

Wow, you can tell who is in love with the vice presidentail candidates and doesn't care how unprepared they are mentally for the job.

I love the mentally challenged. They can't help it. You gotta love Joe and those that love him.

Heaven help us if we have to go through 4 more years like the last 4. The chant should be 4 more weeks, 4 more weeks, 4 more weeks.

God bless America that me may recover from the last 4 years.

Love Joe Biden!

I think the hardest part for Ryan will be expressing with WHICH of Mitt's sides he agrees!

I think we can count on Biden to be s little less polite than Obama was with R'Money. And maybe Ryan can explain for once and for all for WHAT this team stands!?

I'm just wondering what Joe will say next...

will he again admit that this administration has buried the middle class over the last four years???

will he say this again????

"My mother believed and my father believed that if I wanted to be president of the United States, I could be, I could be Vice President!" --Joe Biden

or this!!

I wouldn't go anywhere in confined places now. … When one person sneezes it goes all the way through the aircraft. That's me. I would not be, at this point, if they had another way of transportation, suggesting they ride the subway." --Joe Biden

"Hillary Clinton is as qualified or more qualified than I am to be vice president of the United States of America. Quite frankly, it might have been a better pick than me." --Joe Biden

"I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy. I mean, that's a storybook, man." –Joe Biden

Man - I bet they are CRINGING at the thought of him talking again without a teleprompter!! Maybe they will put an earpiece in his ear to help him out!??? You know that the liberals can cheat, right??

oooohhhh do you wonder if he'll try and plagiarize someone again???

I hope Joe wears a Big Bird suit.

***Oh, just felt like only leaving in the Big Bird part, but I'll add back in: I hope Biden addresses at least some of the 27 lies Romney told in first debate since Obama was too polite -or maybe exhausted or dumbfounded-by the onslaught of Romney's ridiculous falsehoods. But Ryan will just lie no matter what since he knows his base has decided to discredit all fact checkers. So I'm not sure if I'm bothering to watch. But probably.

I am looking forward to all of the debates!! I hope Ryan cleans Biden's clock too, like Romney did to Obama, but I am sure Biden has been prepped like never before to "clean up" Obama's hot mess that was his debate performance last week. Go Team Romney and Ryan!! Get that guy out of the White House!!!!

I am just happy that the election is giving me yet another reason to drink.

I will watch - I expect to be highly entertained.

Honestly, the VP candidates don't really do much to sway my vote. Yes, I know if the Prez dies in office the VP puppet will take over. But, really - they are just parrots for the Presidential candidates. I mean, our children are taught the Presidents names in school - but who really pays any attention to the Vice President. Poor guys.

Once again, I will be trapped in the ballet studio... why do they schedule the debates during my kids' activities? They should consult me first! LOL

Anyway, no, I doubt I'll record it. All I can hope is that someone gives Ryan allll the time he needs to give the details of his budget. I don't think he can explain it, and I think THAT would be funny.

Joe Biden is great. Yes, he blurts, but 99% of what he blurts, I completely agree with. Love that guy.

Here in Nevada we have a night full of debates. We first have Dean Heller (R) and Shelley Berkley (D) for Senate then immediately after we have the Vice Pres. debate. I have no doubt Ryan is going to win, but it's the Biden factor that's going to make it entertaining! :)

I believe I will be watching the late night openings!

Joe has been quiet for a while. He's on a short leash due to all his gaffs. So tonight those chains will be taken off and watch out. I wonder if Joe will have his new Biker Chick in the front row.

Do you think he will talk about his 3 letter word "J-O-B-S", lol

Joe Biden is a one man Circus, I cannot wait for all the jokes.

Are you gonna have a case of beer for this one J.?

No.
I'm not.
If I could sue political parties for telephonic harassment I would.
I'm not kidding you - I am getting between 5 and 15 calls a day.
I work from home - my home number is my business number - I have conference calls scheduled every day and co-workers calling as need be and no matter how many times I tell people and they swear on a stack of bibles my number will be deleted from their dialing databases - the phone keeps ringing with robo calls and political pollsters and foaming at the mouth political nonsense - from every party!
I want to shoot my phone.
I want a taser function/app where by I can zap the undesirable caller and render them unconscious and their machinery fried.

I want this whole circus to be over - 25 days till my wish comes true.
And I don't really care who wins because it makes absolutely no difference - we're all screwed either way.

I am sure it will be a good show tonight but given the high stakes I'll bet both will be on their "game" and will perform well.

I think its going to be anticlimactic personally. They prepped him for 6 days, Dems aren't going to let another debate get away from them.

answers from Boston on

I think there will be an equal number of late night jokes because both candidates have their "styling" differences. I also think both will be defending their running mate's positions and bouncing off the first presidential debate.

I'm going to watch but I'm really more interested in content and policy positions, and I plan to look past the "performance" part to get to the underlying issues. I'm not voting for a debater in November so I'm a lot less concerned with "how" somewhat does than "what" someone believes and will do.

answers from New York on

I am in no way shape or form a democrat but there is something inherently likable about Biden. I do not think he come out with anything funny. He gets into trouble when he goes off topic n starts babbling. Don't think he will do that tonight. I am thinking Ryan will win this one.
