I heard both guys did well in their "leagues".. However I did think Joe Biden came off as rude, and the moderator kept cutting Ryan off mid sentence

In my opinion, the score on content was about equal, but Biden was severely out classed. "Actions speak louder than words" and Biden was loud,clear and verbose in his body language(actions).

I think you need to analyze substance (Ryan) or form (Biden). Yeah Biden is a good speaker but the rudeness and planned aggressiveness were really unbecoming of him. Ryan on the other hand looked like the adult in the room there to solve problems and confront the issues. Biden didn't say much beyond the old Democrat talking points. The more I watch this campaign the more I think Clint Eastwood nailed it.
