'Watching a musk ox run across the tundra with somebody underfoot'
Veeps Go Yeep! Nation Nods
By GAIL COLLINS, NYT
O.K. Forget everything that’s happened so far. Now it’s all about the next debate.
Obama versus Romney on Tuesday! That will be far more important than the conventions. Or the first debate, which President Obama sort of lost, in a game-changing moment that we are now prepared to completely forget because it’s all about the next debate.
Which will be so far more important than the vice-presidential debate that we can hardly bear to mention them in the same paragraph.
Although that thing on Thursday was pretty cool. Paul Ryan’s eyes! Joe Biden’s teeth! Paul Ryan’s water intake! Can that man hydrate, or what?
The big question seems to be whether Biden was too aggressive or just right. It’s true that the vice president interrupted a lot, but, really, he spent the entire run-up week listening to Democrats beg him not to be passive. It’s a wonder he didn’t run onto the stage and instantly bite Ryan on the ankle.
