SMIRK !!!!!

If you did not watch the video of the Biden-Ryan debate you missed the TREMENDOUS non-verbals of Joe Biden.  Foot-in-mouth Joe tried his damnedest to belittle Paul Ryan by snickering, grinning and smirking, complete with non-verbal grunts and noises.

For those who don't pay much attention to the non-verbals, or those only listening to the audio on radio,  it was not a big issue..... but the images of the Vice President of the U.S. carrying on as he did was certainly one helluva negative for his Administration.

Paul Ryan carried on with a gentile smile towards his opponent.  Interestingly, I believe that Paul Ryan continuously looked at Biden and gave him all deference while speaking .  Whereas, I believe Biden spent so much time grinning (smirking?) that his false teeth damned near fell out..... and ignoring, not looking at his opponent (up tight about what he might see?), that it was a real study in personal behavior!!!!!

For what it’s worth, the media lost patience with Biden’s shtick too, but I doubt that’ll cost him anything tomorrow. And yes, needless to say, Raddatz was also terrible. Exit quotation from Greg Gutfeld: “Biden is the drunk at the bar; Martha is the unhappy bartender, and Ryan is the unfortunate salesman caught in the middle.”    [Hot Air]
