Aside from being dullards, their intent is probably to provide a contrast with Obama's "reset" policy.
First, it's not a pressing threat. And, second, there are no feasible solutions. Perhaps everyone's stopped pretending we can solve the problem.

Biden's answers on Medicare were perfect. Really reminds me of that FDR quip

Obama is just not a confrontational guy and I bet he felt it was cheap to bring up 47% and stuff like that in a debate unless the moderator asked about it. Biden was masterful at weaving it into damn near everything lol
Not this time Obama I think made that clear.
I absolutely thought he killed it with Medicare. The time when he looked at the camera and talked to people straight up on Medicare benefits now was great. I don't get how an older person could see that and believe Ryan's crap. It also helps Biden's credibility that he is an older person.
Whats on the table?
they look bored.
at first romney looked like he was smiling, but then i realized it was a :| face.
almost pizza

That seemed purposeful. Its like Biden can read his script, but then he digests it and Bidenizes it, and it eventually comes out imperfect, but truer for it. He's got a Dubya like folksiness, but with experience instead of batshit idiocy.
Yup I think obama is gonna turn into that confrontational black guy lol. He just needs to shore up the democratic base and a few independants. He doesn't need to go nuclear on romney.
some gullible poligafers are actually more like the random thug that Joker always beats the shit out of when he gets annoyed. And PD is the Joker, but without the biting terroristic wit.

Who puts pizza on top of the box? Or am I seeing that wrong? lol

It looks like a pizza stone.
Doesn't look like any pizza I've ever seen...
Romney eats Alien pizza.
I'm sure it's much more expensive than any pizza you've ever seen.

I don't think Robot Romney understand the concept of Pizza.
I have before, because the lid gets all discombobulated when hanging over table edge. Romney is worse than 100 Hitlers obviously, but not because of this.
Considering I get my pizza from small mom and pop places in the city, and the place that supplies the NY Giants pizza, I could believe that.

Pretty much. He got a good shot in on Ryan - "Now you're Jack Kennedy"
Can't believe Ryan walked into that one.
But it's like...rich person's pizza. I mean, am I wrong, or is it served on a cheeseboard? That's the most bourgeois thing I've ever seen, and I've seen a dancing horse in the Olympics.*
* Nope. Read about it on the Internet.
There was also the malarkey moment, that was good stuff.
It's probably a wood cutting board.
Unlike that dipshit Lehrer, Raadatz followed up with Ryan instead of saying "discuss"...
Someone did from the looks of it, haven't been able to trace it to the source though.

If Biden's performance goes down with the American public then they deserve what is coming to them.
I think he did a decent (not great) job of putting for the Obama/Biden ticket views. If they don't want that the fuck 'em.

Biden was kind of being a dick throughout the whole debate. I just don't see the bulk of Americans really enjoying that. I thought that Romney and Obama were mostly courteous, but Biden was being straight up disrespectful.
I am not saying Romney and Ryan's policies don't deserve that oftentimes, but being an attack dog is a fine line to walk in a debate. And Biden went from crazy joe to pit bull.

I think Obama is gonna drop the "L" word in the next debate if Romney pulls the same shit.
That was one of the weaker points imo. What Ryan was saying may have been dumb, but it's not because he was comparing himself to Jack Kennedy (he wasn't) or that Jack Kennedy had special powers that Ryan can't aspire to.
You know how he is, it reinforced his trolling so he grabbed it.
I think Romney was as much of a dick if not more. Biden's job was to fire up the base and he did. Good cop/bad cop
Lesbian? It didn't work for Kerry and Edwards.
