Ryan Favored in Tonight’s Debate

A new Pew Research poll finds 40% of those surveyed expect Paul Ryan to perform better in tonight’s vice presidential debate, while 34% expect Joe Biden to do better.

First Read: “Biden has more pressure on him going into the debate, but Ryan has the
higher expectations, especially among base conservatives. And a
question: Just how many will tune in to the debate? We’re putting the
over-under at 40 million. Remember, there are two MLB playoff games
tonight, as well as Steelers-Titans NFL football game.”
