Subscribe to RSSON THE CAMPAIGN CHARTER HEADING TO OHIO -- The same day as the first presidential debate of the 2012 election, Republican vice presidential nominee Paul Ryan will begin a three-day debate camp.
Campaign spokesman Brendan Buck told reporters aboard the Ryan press charter Saturday afternoon Rep. Ryan will head to the battleground state of Virginia on Wednesday for an extended debate prep session, commonly referred to as ‘debate camp.’
No reason for selecting Virginia was given, however, advisers in the past have said the camp would likely be in a battleground state, likely in the Eastern time zone, and “somewhere where there aren’t distractions.”
Mitt Romney, who will be debating President Barack Obama in Denver on Wednesday, held his own debate camp in Vermont in early September.
Portman joins Romney for debate prep in Vermont
Ryan’s first formal debate prep day was Sept. 9 in Oregon with his most recent formal debate practice session held this past Sunday in a hotel in Janesville, Wis. Ted Olson, the former solicitor general under President George W. Bush, has been playing the part of Vice President Joe Biden during practice sessions and is expected to be in the Old Dominion state next week as well.
Ryan and Biden will debate just once during this election in Danville, Ky., on Oct. 11 – exactly two months after Ryan was tapped as Romney’s running mate, also in Virginia where debate camp will occur.
The campaign told the traveling press a few weeks ago that the seven-term Wisconsin congressman has been going through large white binders -- “organized by issue areas” -- of policy information, research, and news of the day since the Republican National Convention ended at the end of August.
While there has not been much discussion regarding the VP debate in terms of debate expectations -- as most eyes are on the first presidential debate in four days -- two Ryan advisers appeared to downplay expectations for the House Budget Chairman when they spoke to the traveling press in Reno, Nev., in early September.
“Vice President Joe Biden served over 30 years in the United States Senate, he has run for president twice and has severed as vice president for the past four years. He is one of the most experienced debaters in American political life and we definitely don’t take the challenge lightly,” an adviser said.
Ryan focuses heavily on raising money Sunday and Monday -- holding fundraisers throughout Connecticut and New York City – before heading to the key state of Iowa for four campaign events. He will then turn his focus to debate prep leading up to the final weekend before the debate in Kentucky.

I don't see the debates making any difference this time around. Romney and Ryan are boxed in on more tax cuts and vouchers on medicare. They have no inspiring jobs plan. Obama should have an easier time because he will be able to explain why the economy is improving but sluggishly. He will also be able to point out that several ideas aimed at injecting more spending into the economy were voted down by the GOP House. In short, in a time of almost non-existent inflation and slow but steady growth, the GOP has very little to offer. And Romney's five trillion in new tax cuts for the wealthy won't sell.
A roasted wienie for sure come Oct. 11th, Joe was too nice to Sarah, time to get down and chew on ryan's ankles. Ryan needs to called out for all his "real" American voting record, re. Vets, Women and his part in w's systematic destruction of the US, Hope moderator calls ryan out when he doesn't answer the question or at least be a bit aggressive, remember when Juan Williams got trashed in a primary debate and the right wing thugs that was just peachy keen behavior? Not going to happen here.
Obama 2012
"Uncle Joe" isn't good enough to shine Sarah Palin's shoes. There should be a law against Disgusting Libtards even using her name.
Ryan is going to make biden look like the disgusting little weasel that he is.
Female? Libtards would give ANYTHING THEY COULD STEAL to look one tenth as good as Sarah Palin.
Google republican vs democrat women. (Who let the dogs out?)
If you don't know by now who the candidates are and what they stand for wake the hell up!!
Crash course in how to continue being a lying weasel?
All Ryan has to do to learn how to be a lyin' weasel is to kept watching Obama lie to the American people time after time after time!!! (all the trouble in the middle east is due to thaaat darn video!!! LMAO!! Obama let our Americans over there be murdered while he was living it up in Vegas!!!!)Obama failed to live up to his promises. He himself said if he failed he should be a ONE TERM POTUS. Now he wants to "flip-flop" and state I need more time!!!! Well the clocks run out BO it's time to go!!!!!!!!!!!
Ryan & Honey Boo Boo 2016 the new and improved Republican dream team.
I have three words that describe libtards.
DISS-GUSS-TING.

Three days! That's how long it will take him to remember all his lies?
Odumbo and Biden could never remember all of theirs.
Damn dogs. I just stepped in a liberal.
trouble,I think what you just stepped in is Romney's magic underwear. You know the ones with yellow in front and brown in back.
Trouble
Now that Was Funny...
Ryan doesn't need any help. He lies with a straight face. He's ready to go.
And Joey can't even talk without a least 4 cocktails!
Cocktails are better than the lies Ryan is passing out. In fact, you need a few cocktails to listen to lyin Ryan.
And you would have to be slobbering drunk to believe what Ryan says, too.
Ha, ha. Joe will really be debating Ayn Rand.

Paul Ryan & Honey Boo Boo 2016
If Biden had an illegitmate daughter she'd look just like Honey Boo Boo!!!
This ... I can't wait for!! Joe "The Drunken Uncle" Biden will need at least 3 martinis just to get up on stage!! And then his water glass will be filled with Vodka ... don't let him fool you with the water thing. Ryan will start to tear Biden to bits ... and Joey will pass out!!
"Just drag him out by his ankles, boys"
I know it must be difficult for some Republicans to abandon the party that they grew up with. I mean the place I come from is pretty much all Republican and that's all they've known all their life, but if you are really determined to leave the cult, then these words that I found on Wikipedia from another Republican might help you find your way out. These are the words from Dwight David Eisenhower who led the D-Day invasion of Europe. You too can follow him right out of the Republican party, the party of no, the party of right wing wackos. Here is what I found on Wikipedia. As the 1954 congressional elections approached, and it became evident that the Republicans were in danger of losing their thin majority in both houses, Eisenhower was among those blaming the Old Guard for the losses, and took up the charge to stop suspected efforts by the right wing to take control of the GOP. Ike then articulated his position as a moderate, progressive Republican: "I have just one purpose...and that is to build up a strong progressive Republican Party in this country. If the right wing wants a fight, they are going to get it...before I end up, either this Republican Party will reflect progressivism or I won't be with them anymore."[105]

Ludvig:
This must upset you greatly to know that GOP memebrs are not the only ones that will be voting obama out of office. I know for a fact that many of my Ind friends feel the same way as most the country does about what he has done TO this contry.
And could you please explain the GIANT Flip FLOP about his and Clinton running around the world telling everyone how they are sorry that an AMERICAN used his FREEDOM OF SPEACH and made a movie (all be it not a good one) and also had the UN Sec along with themselves and the WH sec telling ALL OF AMERICA that the killing of our 4 American's was due to THIS MOVIE when they KNEW that was NOT the FACTS (Oooopppps I said FACTS).
Now it is being reported to the WORLD that it was TERRORIST (Who has planned the attack well in advance of 9/11).
I mean how can that be? obama KILLED OBL... He ended terror in this world...
To This Day Obama Has not called this a terroist attack altho All of his Staff says it was. I mean he cannot even Admit he was WRONG (I am waiting for him to blame Bush for it)
You mean he hasn't blamed bush for it yet??? Wow, shocker!!
Obama, has given us, 42 months of unemployment above 8%. 23million unemployed, under employed Americans.
3.6 million more Americans on SSDI.
49 million Americans on food stamps.
Gas prices have doubled.
No federal budget, in three years.
An 866 billion dollar stimulus plan that did not create. Shovel ready jobs.
A failed Foreign policy. That resulted in the US, losing a US Ambassador. And an administration that lied about it's causes.Obama also lost Iraq,Libya,Egypt,Iran, Afghanistan,Russia, and China!
Backdoor Amnesty for illegals. As if enough Americans are not out of work!
A failed energy policy! A failed Administration.
Romney/Ryan-2012 and beyond!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Don't forget that the country is $100 trillion in debt and bancrupt. Thanks Barry!
Yet people still blindly follow behind BO sniffing up his BS!!! What is it??? Something in the water???
In a re-enactment of "The Emperor Has No Clothes" .... after Joey's 4 cocktails is the dressing room ... he'll come out of stage with no pants!!
"Er Joe ... this isn't a swinger's bar in Vegas ... could you at least put on some underwear!"
'DUH .... where am I ... isn't this a fundraiser at Lindsey Lohans?"
The party of no,Republicans, passed 38 bills to put Americans back to work. Harry Reid of the US Senate. Refused too allow the bills to come to the Senate floor, for an up or down vote!
Romney/Ryan-2012 and beyond!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh yeah, and all the dems had to do was repeal Obamacare.
Yeah sure, those were 'serious' proposals.
Tell you what, Risk, I'll give you a thumbs up on your post if you sign a contract to never ever post anything anywhere ever again. Sound reasonable?

38 bills filled with pork and BS.
Get serious. Lying Ryan will inhale the Wiilard 'stench' and defend his 'master' like the lying little lap dog that he is. We'll see how Joe decides to dissect the little roach. Obama /Biden 2012
See something you don’t like? In NYC vandalize it and Nanny Bloomberg’s Metro Transportation Authority will take it from there. Islamic activist Mona Eltahawy was held briefly after spray painting an anti-jihad NY subway ad. But Mona got the last laugh. A day later the MTA voted to ban ads that it “reasonably foresees would imminently incite or provoke violence or other immediate breach of the peace.” Great news PETA! You can now spray paint KFC ads so they’ll get banned too! Meanwhile, the anti-Islam filmmaker sits in a LA jail. But no bail? For a “probation violation?” In Obama’s PC America, the First Amendment is so last century. Unless of course the target is Christian or Jewish. P

MA: "Is that all you do ... snort meth, read comic books and jack off to the pictures?"
