Biden question

[asterroc]

I've heard a lot of analysts say that Biden was unusually reserved last night in the debate. (1) Do you have examples of how he usually is? (2) Anyone know why he would've been more reserved than usual?

The drinking game I was playing said to drink if he got angry, and it was on the list of common things to drink about, so I figure he does it a lot.

Also, he could have mopped the floor with her. He didn't, and it wasn't because she was particularly good, it was because he held back. I thought that was classy, myself, but I'm biased.

He was being diplomatic. Something the McCain ticket doesn't understand if Palin's remarks last night were any indicator.
