The Twitter volume wasn’t nearly as high for last night’s V.P. debate as it was for the first showdown between President Obama and Mitt Romney, but the vice president managed to generate plenty of Twitter reaction on Thursday.
Whether it was “malarkey” or the vice president’s ever-present smirk, strategists had lots of fun with Joe Biden’s debate theatrics. Some of the best consultant tweets from last night:
Joe Biden: has a really white smile, has sat in many important rooms.
