Unlike President Obama, Joe Biden actually showed up for his debate with Paul Ryan last night in Danville, Ky., with the V.P. candidates putting on quite a display. While both sides could take away plenty of political positives from the vice presidential debate , the general consensus was that it made for great TV.
