Whatever happens, it won't be of that much importance.  Remember Quayle/Bentson 1988.

Hopefully Biden similarly ends Ryan's career tonight.

I am hoping for a Biden win, but a Ryan win would pretty much guarantee a midnight calling of the election.  I want this thing to go as late as possible into Wednesday morning with an Obama victory halfway between midnight and Sunrise Wednesday!

Yeah.  A major screw-up from either of them can hurt their campaigns, but it'd have to be pretty bad for it to reflect on their running mates.

Got a good feeling about this one. Biden seems ready and focused.

First question puts Biden on the defensive.  This could be a long night for Team Obama...  On top of that, Biden is not sounding confident.

Lost the coin toss, and so far down on Intrade from 63.3 earlier today to 60.9. Come on, Biden, turn it around.

Biden's not doing GREAT, but Paul Ryan's sucking right now.

This is going to be a good debate.  Biden sounded not very confident, and Ryan is sounding focused and determined.

Blame game over dead US personal.

Have you no shame Mr Ryan?

Look at the wave on the bottom of the CNN screen.  Very positive for Ryan from both men and women.

Why are the CNN lines loving Ryan so much?

The key to this is whether Biden responds to what Ryan is saying or just moves onto the next segment. The next key is whether he gets the last word on the next segment.
