Biden seemed unhinged.

Yehhhh....well, that's not just an appearance...

It just occurred to me that I think Biden won, but I was listening to the debate on Sirius. I bet the visuals make the difference.

His laughing and smirking would say otherwise.  I found it highly offensive.  How do you laugh through a serious discussion when it comes to nuclear weapons in the Middle East?

On another note: Greta said that Biden is one of the nicest men in Washington. Whose side is she on?

She said both Ryan & Biden are the nicest guys in Washington.

You have no idea. Nixon - Kennedy debate ? People thought Nixon won who listened, others who watched thought Kennedy won.

I missed the faces and the smirking, but I heard the huffs and guffaws.  Joe is a dick.

We need the Independents and way too many people are talking about the laughing and smirking.

Greta said she really likes both candidates but she also said Biden came off as awful.

CNN's focus group of 50 undecideds didn't care for Biden tonight.

Joe Trippi said Biden had a strong debate but it was diminished by the smirking.

Trippi said it was condescending and over-done.

I agree. I always felt that Biden is really arrogant and pompous. He is willing to throw anyone under the bus.

I think the speaking times came out as close as realistically expected but Bidens continual interruptions should have been more forcibly addressed.

Brit Hume seemed absolutely incensed at Biden's callous, rude behavior.

Mugging for the camera, laughing, gesturing, snarking, all of that. Ryan's appearance at times reminded me of a somewhat patient father dealing with a snotty 8-year old.

Ryan held his own. I think Biden's laughing hurt him.

Biden was rude, smarmy, laughing and smirking. Typical.

No one in the Luntz group decided who they are voting for tonight. That puts me a little at ease.
