Whatever else I took away from this debate, the main thing is Paul Ryan is not truly ready for prime time. He's got the look, but he doesn't have the balls. Not the real balls, like Ronald Reagan or Bill Clinton. I thought it was going to be him in 2016, at the very least him as the repub nominee. After this debate, I'm not so sure. He's a robot...

V.P. Biden looks like what I envision Sonny Corleone would have looked like if he would have survived the toll plaza and lived a long life like his brother Michael.

Rhetorically, a draw, both got in their punches/lines....Biden came off as smug, condescending and pompous, Ryan kept his cool and was by far the more professional.

Did Biden take some 'shrooms or laughing gas before the debate?

Ryan looked completely out of his element.
During a press conference later, O'Mara was asked if he had any advice for Zimmerman, and he answered, "Pay me."

Chris Matthews says Biden won hands down, so that pretty much settles it.

At least Muslims limit the number of wives to four.

Hey, the EU just won the Nobel Prize. It sounds like a raging alcoholic can get huge recognition if he/she simply makes an appointment to visit an AA group.

The Peace Prize is a joke. Just look at the recent winners. It's even worse than the Heistman Trophy.

The 2010 Heisman was spot on, sir.

Funny but why is it always in dem controlled districts where voter problems occur? Aren't they controlled by um...dems? Or could it be its preplanned to get more votes from where the dim voters are?

I mean its almost guaranteed that there will be "problems" requiring polls to be kept open or some other such bullshit in St Louis, Miami Dade, Cleveland, and Philly. Maybe Detroit this year or somewhere in Wisc.

Funny Huh?
"Dem-controlled" areas tend to be urban areas and it seems pretty logical that busy polling places with lots of people and long lines would have more problems.

Republican strongholds in Bumfuck, Tennessee, with 56 total registered voters, don't seem to have the same degree of problems for some reason.

Right. So why don't these places make changes to correct these "problems"? Why is is always these areas that are always bitching yet they never fry and fix anything?

The Labor Dept. and Reuters is in cahoots!
Minus the data from which large state?

Then you don't get all those great daughters. :roll:
Feminism: Eve eats ALL the apples, gives God the middle finder when He confronts her, and has the serpent serve Adam with an injunction ordering him to both stay away from her AND to provide her food and shelter because he dragged her out of the Garden.
