What were the results of the debate?
Any effective statements?
Any gaffs?
What impact will it have?
Student's Response...
The results of the vice presedential
debate varied; Fox News and CNN both say that Paul Ryan had a better showing
than Joe Biden, but MSNBC says that Joe Biden had a better night.
One section of the debate that Joe Biden seemed strong in was over the war in
Afghanistan when we accused Ryan of wanting more American troops in
Afghanistan. One part of the debate that Ryan looked strong in was during
the discussion over the American economy, he hammered Obama on his failed
policies and was strong on the fact that the American people deserve better.
During the course of last night's debate, there were no gaffs to my knowledge,
neither candidate said anything that could really hurt their image. I
think the undecided voters will definately lean towards Paul Ryan in last
night's debate. Throughout the debate Joe Biden was laughing,
interrupting, and pacifing Paul Ryan and was seen as being a disrespectful
politician who could not handle criticism. The citizens who were already
democratic are going to vote for Biden and probably did not mind this barbaric
behavior, but for the people who were on the fence about this election, I think
they will definately prefer Ryan's strong, caring, and patient character which
was shown through the debate last night.

There was no clear cut winner in the vice-presidential
debate, but a few people think Biden won. Ryan had a very effective comment
when he said that the Obama administration's foreign policy was
"unraveling." There were no gaffes,but Biden might be criticized
for his body language. In the beginning of the debate Biden laughed out
loud and smirked at some of Ryan's statements. But Ryan was smirking
through most of the debate also. Then towards the end Biden became more serious
and monotone in his responses. Biden did not look at Ryan that much and looked
down many times. The debate could impact the election a great deal, but some
voters might have already made up their mind after the first debate.

So far as I have watched
half a hour of this and all I can say is "WOW'. These guys are going
at it. Im not for sure who the winner will be because both these men have
making good points and refuse to lose. They are both getting to the point
of the election where they are both interupting each other. They have
literally not even came close to agreeing on one thing. They are also
both being jerks to each other but I have realized Biden is being more rude by
his body language and interupting more. I think the way its looking Paul
Ryan may win but you never know due to the intensity of this debate.
