Paul Ryan’s act - that he is a serious, substantive economics wonk - is the kind of self-important and stuffy straight man that is perfect for being taken down a notch for the amusement of viewers.
A good cartoon.

A good cartoon.
Silver originally described PPP as "a slightly Republican-leaning pollster," which makes it amusing that PoliGAF has seized on them as our one lifeline.
Steve Jobs never could have dreamed of such a strong reality distortion field.

I posted it in the other thread, but these "numbers" are more appropriate for Ryan (maybe replace it all with "20%"):
I wonder if debating with Kerry is a good idea?

They said Kerry did great in the prep but Obama just seemed out of it.

Yeah I think the real debate went about as well as the fake debates did. So I guess Kerry was pretty good!
It will be interesting to see the change, the fact its a town hall is already in his benefit.
If any of you have ever seen Romney live he is really awkward when a person does not respond to him in a way he expects (gay veteran, females, etc). Obama can do much better relating to people even if he is not interested. No amount of debate prep can change how you relate to people.
I would worry more about the third debate since that goes back to the same format as the first one and is where Obama needs to have learned any lessons.
Indeed, voter suppression is a bitch. But the two laws intended to disenfranchise, restrictions on provisional ballots and early voting, were overturned by the 6th. Circuit. Are there other laws I'm missing?
I doubt any sparring partner can imitate Romney. If there's a side on an issue, he's taken it.

Yep. I think it'd be worthwhile to have him sit down with some honest representatives of worried small business owners and others who may disagree with his message. If he could empathize with their worries and connect with them he'd do great come Tuesday.
the third one is where it'll be libya for a little while and then a bunch of stuff obama did like winding down iraq, winding down afghanistan, killing bin laden. versus what romney wants to do like ramp things up, unless romney says he doesn't want to increase military presence over there, which he could do
Wasn't it though? So awesome.
What kind of music would play during Obama's debate training montage?
8 years too late Kerry :|

North Carolina 70-30 O 
In whose favor?North Carolina 70-30 O
I will just say I would not be shocked if AZ became competitive, I still Romney will win but the GOP is fooling themselves if they think they can go 2-3 more cycles and not have it be at risk the same way NV, CO, and NM are heading. Texas will ultimately be the same way as it trends purple in coming years.
What is going on in the SW is the same thing that happened in the Midwest, its whats ultimately going to change FL as the GOP leaning Cubans grow older and are replaced by DEM leaning Cubans and Mexicans.

Todd Akin. said:
The amount of fuck that is entering my mind is utterly incomprehensible.
Gary Johnson picks up a lot of that cow vote, though, so the actual results will be a little different.
Really? I think I'd be very surprised if Akin weren't a big fan of the tornado through a junkyard producing a 747 analogy.

Ryan had no/few details (though I do remember zoning out at one point where he was throwing out too many numbers.
Biden blatantly lied about Benghazi and saying he didn't vote for 2 unfunded wars which he indeed voted for.
Partisans are seeing what they wanted to see in that debate.

What I don't get is how Biden stuttered through the Benghazi question. He had ample time to make up and rehearse an answer.
