While I eagerly tuned into the recent presidential debate, I am afraid that the vice-presidential debate on Thursday will be a "yawner".
Granted, the only thing the two v.p. candidates, Mr Biden and Mr Ryan, have in common was their youth when they were initially elected (30yrs and 26 yrs, respectively). Everything else is as opposite and irreconcilable as the colors blue on a red background.
What makes me angry is NOT that the issues will remain polarized and polarizing during and after the debate, is the fact that my favorite television show, Glee!, is being pre-empted.
If you agree with my description of the debate (yawn!), let me know which of your favorite Thursday shows will be cancelled. Vote now!

Is anyone else embarrassed by the fact that Joe Biden is our Vice President?

Dick Cheney. Biden. We almost had John Edwards as VP....and Sarah Palin would have been a doozy. Now they put out lyin Paul Ryan. The Ghost of Spiro Agnew is looking better....
Yeah, we don't need to see this debate.

I agree with you, John. The man is a complete idiot and has every reason to dread his debate with Ryan. Ryan could just stand there and smile and he would perform better than Biden.

Not having a new Parks and Recreation episode might crush my spirit for a full week.

Hello, Patch Commentators:
Thank you for your responses. However, please refrain from name calling when you comment. Debates, like high school football games, can bring out the best and worst in us. Thank you.
