The election result will not
decide the debate between Paul Ryan and Joe Biden. The vice presidential
candidates exchanged blows in a debate dialectical much more alive and more
cunning than Barack Obama and Mitt Romney held a few days ago. These conclusions
ten left Danville televised duel.
1.
No clear winner
This time none steamrolled. Darts
were exchanged and some low blows. The vice president came to the lesson and
did what Obama did in Denver last week. Ryan was not as bright as Romney. But
adopted a serene attitude that made him look good. Got for winning polls and
analysts Ryan declared a draw. Good for the Republicans, who still lead in the
polls.
2.
Raising
morale
The aim of Biden was haranguing
Democrats low hours and succeeded. His combative style was a cry to bases
disappointed by the president's passivity. But the impression here is that the
vice president spent braking. He overran laughter and histrionic gestures and
lacked respect for his opponent. His arguments were good. But he lost the
debate on the forms. A KO points and no.
3.
The challenge
Ryan's challenge was presented as
a politician ready to be president if the time comes and he did with a tone and
content without fanfare. He presented his arguments with ease in economic
affairs. Although he suffered to explain his position on abortion and was not
loose in addressing foreign policy. Yet polls showed that more than his rival
liked and those who watched the debate thought he was better prepared to reach
the White House. Quite an achievement against a veteran like Joe Biden.
4.
Rivals like
A Ryan and Biden are joined by
many similarities. Both are career politicians and profess the Catholic
religion. Both suffered a major loss at a young age: his father Ryan infarction
Biden and his wife and youngest daughter in a traffic accident. The debate made
evident their opposing views on the future of U.S. fruit of the doldrums
perhaps reflecting their age. Biden (69) tried their proposals whisper in the
ear of the "baby boomers". Ryan (42) was presented as the image of
generational change.
5.
Only a protagonist
Biden was the undisputed star of
the debate. It was as loud as effective. Best foreign policy in economics and
better when he spoke when he kept talking to her rival. No Obama quoted by name
once. Perhaps still have his sights set on a possible future election.
6.
More pressure for Obama
Biden's verbal aggression even
further increases the pressure on Obama, who is bound to win his match on
Tuesday in New York. Will the strategy outlined by the second? Should not that
scare the undecided? You must find a middle ground between the bluff and not
appear. But above all should make a solid discussion. Obama still does not
offer a memorable moment in this campaign. The staged there but the other:
Michelle, Bill Clinton, Joe Biden on Thursday.
7.
Echoes of 2016
Both Biden and Ryan harbor
presidential ambitions and this were clear in Thursday's debate. The vice
president tried to gain the respect of their bases, which often presented as a
leader prone to whining and blunders. The applicant sought to show that he is a
politician with fewer edges than indicating a caricature and can conquer less
extremist voters by stressing the need for spending cuts. Both got what they
wanted. But Ryan is still a much more credible candidate for 2016. Has time on
his side.
8.
Mal on abortion
The worst moment was Ryan's
question about abortion. It was dry and lacking in words stating the official
position of the campaign, which defends only in cases of incest, rape or risk
to the mother's health. Congressman voted much more radical laws on Capitol
Hill and its position is to the right of Romney. It was a very difficult
question for him and very damaging for Republicans, who need to reduce the gap
between women that still separates them from the president.
9.
Foreign Policy
Biden goofed when discussing the
attack on the U.S. consulate in the Libyan city of Benghazi. But otherwise, won
by a landslide in debate on foreign policy. Ryan failed to articulate the
differences would Romney presidency for U.S. relations with its allies. Nor
could say for sure what Obama should have done in crisis as negotiations with
Syria or Iran. Still, it is important to remember that this time foreign policy
is a matter irrelevant. The economy and the deficit are the issues of greatest
concern to citizens.
10.
A duel irrelevant
The debate Thursday night just
influences the election outcome. There were no gaffes or mistakes very obvious.
It was an exchange that satisfied the bases and left without answers to those
who still have not decided who to vote for. The elections are decided by the
presidential candidates. Moreover in this campaign as polarized as even and
where every vote could be crucial. Romney remains ahead in the RCP index which
several national polls. Although still lagging behind in key battleground
states like Ohio and Virginia needed to win. On Tuesday, Obama will face in a
debate that seems crucial. So it may be easier to predict the election result.
