Vice Presidential Debate 2012

The dynamic of the debate was much different from the first, with both candidates sitting at a single table closer together.  This lead to a more conversational debate as opposed to throwing ideas back and forth like a man playing catch with his son.

Throughout the most of the debate, Biden was laughing as if he heard the funniest joke in the world.  Obviously he read this post on my blog.  The laughing, although meant to diminish Ryan's points, made him seem like a grouchy old man.  He reminds me of a teacher I had back in middle school who made you feel terrible about asking questions because of his condescending demeanor.

Also, did you see the glasses of water they had under the table?  There were about 3 mugs of water for the each of them stored in a compartment in the table.  I need a desk like that, but instead of glasses of water, I would install an automatic lemonade dispenser.
