With Amount Of Time Biden Will Have To Spend Fact Checking, He Won't Have Time To Answer Questions

[sfstaxprep]

That is Drumpf's whole game plan.

Biden is going to spend the 1st minute of EVERY response, pointing out the LIE that Drumpf just gave.

just a bit...also, a great pic of Jackie O in comments..

Does Joe Biden rank high among the best in the art of debate in this era? No, of course not. Yet the exact reasons for this will definitely give Joe the upper hand in debating Trump. Let's consider his history of political debates in presidential campaigns.

The majority of these have been in democratic primaries. My young friend pointed out that when an opponent has attacked him in these, he hasn't reacted as strongly as previous winners of the party's nomination have. Exactly, I said, and that is because Joe actually liked every one of the other Democrats that he was debating. He does not like Donald Trump.

In 2008's vice presidential debate against Sarah Palin, although Joe recognized that she was grossly unqualified for office, Biden handled her with kid gloves. Even when she called him "O'Biden," he didn't miss a beat. While he did not respect her as a candidate, he was not going to disrespect her as a human being. He might not have liked her, but he knew it was better to let her expose herself as unqualified, than for him to hammer that home. He wasn't going to take the George H. W. Bush route from the 1984 vice presidential debate against the first female vp candidate, with the "we tried to kick a little ass last night" bit.

3. He should not spend much time fact-checking Donald.

Just don't do it.

11. Correct . . . Once or twice will be sufficient.

4. Joe did fine in the VP debates with Sarah Palin and Paul Ryan

He will do fine here.

[Wounded Bear]

5. No he won't. A simple "That's a lie" will suffice...

then launch into his own statement of issues and policies.

[soothsayer]

6. Yes, he knows what to do.

[Wounded Bear]

8. Answering Trumps lies with numbers and data is failing...

Unfortunately, that puts people to sleep and appears defensive. Definitely counter productive to what is actually a media event.

Hillary won all of her debates on issues and facts. Didn't matter, too many people fell for Trump's theatrics.

10. He's been practicing. I imagine that's as much about style as it is substance

People will realize they thirst for decency and hunger for compassion when they see it. It’s just such a stark difference from what we’ve seen for lo these many years.

Seriously. I didn’t even realize how much I needed it until Joe came along.

But he may get some zingers in. They just won’t be mean spirited.

7. I don't think so...

They know that's Trump's strategy

They don't HAVE to walk into it and they won't

[gratuitous]

9. Maybe not

Biden can preface his rebuttal with a hand wave and, "That's a bunch of malarkey; here are the facts." Shouldn't take very long at all.

12. Biden is gonna do fine!! He's not going to react..he's going to act

He’ll be clear and concise in answers to his questions. Dotard can ramble,on, he’s his own worst enemy and that isn’t going to change during the debate
