Many of the comments left here are disturbing to me. Reason: I could tell just by the nature of them who was a supporter for Ryan and who wasn't. The comments from the Ryan supporters are, in my opinion, nasty. You don't have to be a supporter of the Democrats or Republicans, but if you are going to complain about what Biden has done, you should be acting accordingly in your own comments about people, not using the same behavior that you are criticizing someone else for. Doesn't win me over in the least.

People are all commenting on Joe Biden's body language. There were no comments on his substance, therefore he blew Congressman Ryan away when it came to debating.

Joe Biden behaved like an unruly, immature school boy. One who does not have anything of importance to contribute to the questions so he chooses to be disruptive and rude when someone else does... A real spoiler! Joe B really needs some lessons in self control and in decorum. I think the moderator should have given him a "time out "so that he could get control of himself.
Was the reason for his laughing jag because he had a little too much Kentucky bourbon? Or , was he enjoying a private joke? Or.... perhaps there is really is nothing positive he can say about the past 4 years. They are indefensible!
Either way, the joke is on him... he disrespects his position , his audience and certainly is not presidential material.He is well suited to his role as class clown . It is a position he has honed well...

Joe Biden was rude, crude, and not worthy of the office, to represent the United States of America.

There is no question that Joe Biden is far more prepared to be President if called upon

I think Paul Ryan won. He was very respectful and knew the facts.
Joe Biden was rude and ignorant. He needs a lesson in manners.

I felt Ryan came across as composed and professional.
Biden acted very rudely. Imagine being at a meeting
at your work. Ryan is trying to calmly explain a
possible way forward. You have an idiot in the meeting
who has no solution, but they are loud, rude, interrupting.
We've all seen this.
Whether you agree with Ryan or not. Biden had nothing
to bring to the table for a way forward.

Joe Biden's disgraceful antics cheapened the Office of the Vice President.
Smirking, jerking, and bellowing was Joe's substitute for any cogent thoughts.
He made a fool of himself, and will be remembered for this long after the issues have faded into history.

It was embarrassing to watch a VP of the United States act like a disrespectful, rude buffoon. It is frightening to think that, if elected, he would ever have an opportunity to step in as president. Any wonder that Congress is stuck if VP is involved in any way in collaborative discussions since he is unable to listen in ernest and comment with respect. Romney/Ryan have my vote most definitely since this debate.

Paul Ryan came prepared and showed his knowledge of the failing of this administration. Joe continues to look inept in his ability to defend the past 4 years of failures and deficit spending.

I am happy Biden won according to most polls. I think WBZ polling is skewed because there are a lot of conservatives who rig the polling.

Joe Biden's behavior last evening was so disrespectful, arrogant and rude toward Mr. Ryan - constant interruption, constant laughing and snickering really disgraceful and unprofessional for a Vice President of the United States.

I am not sure that Ryan is qualified to be President but I know for certain that Biden is not any more qualified than Obama - neither of them deserve to be president. I am voting for Romney because I think he will make a better president and hope that Ryan will learn along the way. If I had hired the Obama/Biden team to a four year contract - and reviewed their work for the past four years - I would not rehire them for another four years.

When you have a dismal record of failures and lies, you can only be rude, interupting to prevent criticism from being spoken outright and of course, you can always depend on a close friend like Martha Radatz to let you do what you want to. Ryan has more class in his pinky finger than Biden and Radatz combined.

Though I don’t agree with Ryan politics if it came to replacing a president I would prefer him, if only because he seems a bit sharper. Would I vote him in no!

Paul Ryan was respectful. Joe Biden's behavior was disturbing, distracting and annoying. It was a performance beneath the dignity of the office. Paul Ryan deserved an opportunity to discuss America's grave problems under more sober conditions. Joe Biden's laughter and disrespect was misplaced and embarrassing.

As an un-enrolled voter, I like to view myself as open minded and certainly prefer to vote the individual and not the party. In watching last nights debate I thought both Joe Biden and Paul Ryan did a fair job in arguing their points. I was turned off by Joe Biden's belligerence. His laughing at statements made by Paul Ryan came across as demeaning. In all I felt that Paul Ryan held his ground and came across as more professional. I feel that he outperformed Joe Biden.
