Wonder is Ryan is going to bring up Libya.
That would be a hot topic.

Unfortunately this is a town hall style debate. I am not sure, given that, how they will run it. It will most likely be a mix of audience and moderator questions. Ryan will have to bring up Libya at whatever convenient moment is made available.

I expect the moderator to do all she can to rehab her friend after his own debate performance, even if that means ambushing Ryan with "when will you stop beating your wife?" sorts of questions, and asking Biden to expound on what a great guy Obama is and how much worse would things be if Bush policies had continued.

Should that happen I fully expect Ryan to be able to handle it and make it look easy.

Me too.....there may be a few issues I will have with our candidates, but handling a hostile host is not one of them.

That's fine but if we do the shots thing we'll be all done in the first 15 minutes.

Win-win?

I don't have the time or money to buy a liquor store.

it does sound like a recipe for a severe case of alcohol poisoning.

1/4 thimble shots then, that outta get us close to the end...

Could bode for more high drama, Bidet on the attack? Sounds like a recipe for endless episodes for nonsensical rambling!

Okay...let's get this party started.

I certainly do not expect a repeat of last week. It might be interesting but it will not be anything close to a debacle.

I fully expect Biden to get the softball questions.

I don't expect it to happen but if it gets physically violent I am pretty sure that Ryan would beat the crap out of Biden.

Libertas · « **Reply #32 on:** October 11, 2012, 08:04:11 PM »

He's awake, points for that, eh?

trapeze · « **Reply #33 on:** October 11, 2012, 08:04:41 PM »

First question for Biden is a softball: Was the Libyan consulate attack an intelligence failure?

Biden immediately goes rambling all over the place.

Ryan immediately goes on offense. Brutal.

Libertas · « **Reply #34 on:** October 11, 2012, 08:05:54 PM »

Talking points, didn't answer.

ETA - Re: Bidet

Boom! Ryan nailed the Obama Regime on all points!

Raddatz tries to rescue Biden by going after Ryan/Romney.

Libertas · « **Reply #37 on:** October 11, 2012, 08:10:28 PM »

Whoa! Bidet pulling stuff out of his butt! Where the specifics?

Backside investigative CYA, results after the election, stops asking me question beeoch! (That's what he wants to say!)

To Ryan - Burning Korans? WGAF?!

Biden lies about Benghazi. What they knew and when they knew it.

trapeze · « **Reply #39 on:** October 11, 2012, 08:12:16 PM »

I will give Raddatz credit for the Benghazi question to Biden...it was a tough question. But Biden just lies all over the place and she did allow him to get away with it.

She just cut Ryan right off as he was making a point.
