Deliberate
Or Stupid?
Watching Joe Biden Is like watching
ego in motion.

Joe
is always JOE. The
Obama campaign pulled him out of travel
and campaigning for SIX SOLID DAYS to prep him for this week’s Vice
Presidential debate. Did
it show?
Perhaps.
There
is an old litigator’s
strategy known among legal beagles.
If
you don’t have a good case, no facts to stand on, then INTERRUPT. Continuously.
Joe
Biden interrupted Paul Ryan 88
times in 90 minutes. Do
you think David
Axelrod suggested that Biden try to throw Paul Ryan off of his game
during the
first SUPER-NATIONAL debate in his career?
Likely.
More
importantly, is there any
chance that Joe Biden doesn’t OWN the message of this election, and
that Paul
Ryan does? So what
better way to keep
Americans from hearing it, than to be disruptive?
When
your opponent is
self-destructing… just get out of the way. Ryan played it perfectly.
The
referee of this “Vice Presidential”
debate, protected Joe Biden. A
reputable
foreign correspondent, but never an anchor, ABC’s Martha Raddatz acted
like
the limelight was
hot even for her. She
had every opportunity to hold Vice
President Biden accountable for his imaginary facts. For his weak
remarks on
Libya and his fiction about Obamacare and the Catholic Church. But doing so would have
taken her off the
President’s Christmas Party list. Demanding the truth would have
disaffected
her bosses at ABC and ABC’s owner DISNEY, which is
all-Obama-all-the-time.
The
facts are these:
Paul
Ryan is an intellectual giant.
His opponent… not so much.
Paul
Ryan’s job was to NOT MAKE
HEADLINES. Deliver
the facts, the
campaign talking points, and just get out of the way so that Biden
could do what
he does best: self-destruct.
Joe
Biden’s job was to bring some
energy to the debate and try to revitalize Democrats who were
demoralized by
their own President! Unfortunately,
Biden has no OFF SWITCH! He
jumped into
the front seat and took the wheel, and acted like he might drive right
off a
debate cliff! If
you noticed, in the
last 10 minutes of the debate, Biden ramped it down.
Someone must have caught his eye! Or perhaps someone from
the DNC held up a
sign on the front row that said, “STOPPP!!!!!!”
Independent
women could only be
turned off by his arrogance, his rudeness, and inappropriate toothy
grins. Especially
out of place when the subject was
the economic suffering of the American people….
But
this was a display that was
second nature for a man who has been walking on marble too long, and
who has
been padding his checking account and his lifestyle for so many
decades, that
his “passions” pale in comparison to his hunger for money and power.
Authenticity…is
what 2012 voters
are looking for. Ryan has it.
Paul
Ryan is the SECOND most
intelligent man in America today.
Mitt
Romney is the FIRST. If
Ryan had wanted
to pick the meat off of Joe Biden’s bones, intellectually he could have
done
it. The fear on
Joe’s face when Ryan led
off with the unemployment figures in Joe Biden’s OWN HOMETOWN of
Scranton,
Pennsylvania was measurable. Scranton had an unemployment rate of 8% in
2008. Today it is
10%.
That
was just a softball
Imagine
if Paul Ryan, who sleeps on
a cot in his congressional office, had
elected to mention that Vice President
Biden uses Air Force TWO to make
special, and regular trips to Washington from Delaware most weekends,
at the
taxpayers expense, to play GOLF with the President!
The
debate was won by Paul
Ryan. He was a
gentleman. Joe
Biden was not. Paul
Ryan told the truth… and Joe Biden
couldn’t recognize the truth if he was swimming in it.
