Vice Presidents Matter

Watching the vice presidential debate was frustrating for me. Joe Biden, really? Was it not possible to engage in dialogue without the fourth grade mentality, the laughing, the smirks, the interruptions? If something were to happen to the President of the United States - Joe would be our PRESIDENT. Now if you are thinking I am a dyed-in-the-wool republican and I am only picking on poor little Joe, not so.
Paul presented a more mature personality but possibly less experienced political persona. Let's face it - he does have less experience and it seemed he was reticent to show any passion for his beliefs (and yet I know he has them).
So while I wanted to put Joe in 'time-out' - I wanted to shake Paul and say leave the script.
Too inexperienced or to immature - which guy gets the vote? Vice Presidents matter. Remember Lyndon Johnson?
