We’re having network issues with our servers today; bad timing, I know, with the debate and all. LGF just started working again, so before it goes offline again (knock on wood) here’s a first thread for the VP debate, which you can watch over the web at C-SPAN.

Honestly, I monitored Obama's debate here because I really can not stomach Mitt Romney. He gives me the creeps, his lying is so disrespectful to the American people that I can't believe he gets an audience (he sure ain't gettin' mine, even on tv). There is just something about Romney that makes me get a chill and go "eeewww" (like a pervert vibe)... sorry just the truth. But Ryan, Jr, I can at least stomach and listen to, even though I may hold my nose.

Romney Says Nobody Dies for Lack of Health Insurance
Mitt Romney, who has pledged to repeal Obamacare, told the Columbus Dispatch that people without health insurance don't have to worry about dying as a result.
Said Romney: "We don't have people that become ill, who die in their apartment because they don't have insurance."
However, Reuters reported earlier this year that more than 26,000 working-age adults die prematurely in the United States each year because they lack health insurance.

re: #142 Jdorfma4
I love when Joe calls him a moron and a liar in no uncertain terms but he needs to be careful not to come off as an ass. Undecideds hate conflict. Obama knew that in the last debate and went too far the other way, I hope Biden doesn't go too far the other way to compensate. In the end the debates are about, sadly, optics, not substance.
Joe is doing just fine on both style and substance.

I cannot watch this or possibly any other debate ever. The trauma from watching the last one almost killed me. I'm just going to live vicariously through the reactions here. Let me know when I need to drink.
I feel exactly the same way. If Biden winds up doing badly, could everyone just lie for the next 90 minutes and tell me things are going well? Just consider it your tribute to the Romney/Ryan ticket.

Get angry, Paul. Rip into this asshole.
In other words you want Ryan to lie even more?

All this referencing to Politifact or other wonky sites is irrelevant.
For the few % of actual voters who are watching this, what they are simply getting is misinformation.
And the hostess isn't helping here, because when somebody references "studies" she ought to ask for specific details.

I don't think it's irrelevant. Most undecideds aren't watching this debate now but they're going to watch news coverage tomorrow. Biden wording his statements correctly in a factually accurate manner and Ryan floundering with inaccurate statements will be covered. It does make a difference.

Intrade stocks blowing up.
Started around 60/39 in favor of Obama. Now it's 63.4/36.7. Those guys clearly think Biden is winning.
Let's see the media spin this one.
Now it's up to 64.2/36.1
If this keeps up, Biden might completely reverse Obama's losses by tomorrow! lulz

He's getting killed because unlike Mitt Romney he's not running away from what he's been in favor of and it's all unpopular.
He couldn't do an Etch a Sketch like Mitt. If the President keeps his policy wonk and combines it with some Joey B fighting attitude he can win the nest debate and out this thing away.
I think he's dying for another shot at Willard and Biden's performance should give him a great boost. Now he knows he can laugh in Willard's face if he feels like it.

No, he's trying to create a "but" situation, as in "We'll be out in 2014, but we'll be keeping troops there 'just in case.'"

re: #459 Killgore Trout
Yes, they do, that's why Biden is making gains by wording his claims properly. Not "destroying medicare" or "killing Big Bird". He's making factually acurate statements, there's no need to exaggerate with hyperbole.
Which is exactly what Obama did during the debate.
Biden isn't 'winning' this through facts, or Obama won the last debate. It's presentation.
