I can hear Van Hollen now, "Joe, seriously, you gotta go easy on those the Middle Class has been buried for the last four years comments."

Debates are good for information, as well as "style" I think both candidates are seasoned in debate, and will make strong points. However, I think many will see it from their own perspective. After all, Obama actually thought HE won the debate with Romney. That's understandable. A person's own style and arguments make more sense to that person than they do to others who strongly disagree. Is there anyone out there still sitting on the fence? How can that be after experience of some 4 years of the "dear leader" and his side-kick along for the ride (good 'ol Joe). Let's all watch for the fun, if not learning or changing anyone's minds.

There is no chance that I will change my vote based on this debate. It will be painful to watch the idiot that is a heartbeat away from the Presidency----but I have hope that the election will change that.

Hopefully the debate will prove interesting because some actual details will emerge about "how" Romney and Obama plan to stop the downward spin of our economy. In the presidential debate, Romney spoke largely in generalities, and Obama said little and appeared to be asleep most of the time. Ryan has to present the particulars of Romney's strategy. And Biden needs to layoff out what changes in strategy Obama is planning because whatever he is now doing isn't working.

While I agree there was very little presented in terms of concrete plans to save our Country, I think the most important thing I learned from the last debate is: Obama wants to hire more Government Employees and Romney wants the private sector to hire more Employees. That looks like to completely different styles and you have to pick which one is best if you haven't made up your mind.

Also, I think the loss of teachers is a direct result of stimulus money that was used to hire teachers and that money dried up from the federal government and the local governments could not sustain those positions. Is that right or am I way off base?

It's possible one of these men could become President due to disability, terminal illness or assassination of the President so it is very important to get a good idea of who they are and what they stand for. i think that the VP debate has the potential to be more interesting than the first presidential debate.

YES it MATTERS! This should be HILARIOUS with the other half of Dumb & Dumber proving to be just that! When its over, the people of this country will then know just why the Democrats have a jaskass for a mascot! Poor ole Joe, Vegas will be taking bets on just how stupid one person can be!

Debates are orchestrated puppet shows....the strings will always be pulled by the money controllers that reside way above the President of VP....these folks own all of the major media sources as well. Elections are bought and sold as a part of the illusion that's projected to the world. American citizens will get screwed either way...

Well, we already know that Joe Biden is a bumbling buffoon, so we might as well crown the winner as Paul Ryan right now.

Can't wait to see how right wing Ryan dances around Mr. etch-a-sketch's sudden moderation! Will watch for sure!

I can't wait to see Joe mop the floor with Mittnochio's fellow liar Paul Ryan. Unleash the Biden I say!! LOL

Biden is a joke. He makes a box of hammers look smart

Biden reminds me of the neighborhood drunk.

IS IT ME? DOES BIDEN LOOK LIKE JEFF DUNHAMS WALTER?

All you super achievers bashing Biden-what do you have in your tool box? I'm guessing not much to brag about. Big talk-most of you won't even sign your name! I can play this game too-Ryan looks like the neighborhood oxycontin addict. Oh wait, that is Rush Limbaugh!

Amen Bill. Sad to think that Biden's resume is much better than Obama's.

if ya'll don't show respect for Joe, ya'll be put back in chains ! Tell me how temporary that could be!!!

Thank goodness for Thursday night football........................

Come on people why are you all fighting over Obumney debate??? Can't you see that Obama and Romney are the same!!!
They are no different!!!! Romney loves Obamacare and wants to leave in place almost all of it. Romney (like Obama) loves school system and want to increase the school spending. Romney (like Obama) loves Big Government. Romney loves war more than Obama and he wants to increase the military spending. Romney (like Obama) supports Wall Street bailouts. They only argue on the Big Bird funding.

We's been in chains for 4 years according to Joe.

LOL Like this guy looks like a Rocket Surgeon.......

Is it me or is The Patch newspaper promoting Obama because I see the ad for him every day and no Romney ads. I wonder if Obama comes back into the White House what amount of $$$ are we and China gonna give him to blow.....He hasn't done ANYTHING about Health Care...why should someone that makes $25,000 a year pay the same as someone that makes $125,000 a year????? You need a sliding scale based on income.

I'd like to know how Obama can spend 1.4 billion a year on family expenses since he's been in the White House.

DJ, They can't defend Obama so they just attack anything that moves. Their like a school of Piranha"s with no teeth. Sad.

What's up with it costing us 7 million a year for the Obama's health care cost while in the White House per year? No wonder HE doesn't want Obamacare, WE couldn't afford it.

This debate is a joke and Biden is an obnoxious buffoon who is an embarrassment to our government. Also, the moderator did a poor job of controlling Biden with all his interruptions when Ryan was speaking. Is this how he would act if he had to fill the President's office? God help us if Obama is re-elected!

Every time Biden smiles< I know he's lying. My oldest son does the same thing.

Has anyone watched the movie Obama 2016?
