Now THAT was a Debate!
What a contrast! Two articulate, well-informed men talking about SUBSTANCE! ISSUES! People speculated ahead that the Biden-Ryan debate might be “too wonky” for average people–but I think ordinary folks are smarter than the pundits give them credit for.
Both men at the top of the ticket–the lying bully with nothing to say, and the sleepwalker–could learn from their running mates.
Yes, I do have a viewpoint on which man won (Biden), and which man more closely represented the pulse of the American electorate (Biden again)–but I give Ryan some props for holding up well under fire, and for giving a better closing speech, even if he read it while Biden appeared to speak without notes. I appreciated that both were civil, and both knew their stuff.
