Biden and Ryan set to square off

October 11, 2012 By Brian Moon

Viewers nationwide will be tuning into Janesville’s Paul Ryan debate Vice President Joe Biden. Ryan is coming off a top-of-the-ticket debate performance last week which saw Mitt Romney emerging as the victor against President Obama. This has led to a nationwide boost in the polls for the Republican challenger, says political scientist Charles Franklin.

Franklin says for Ryan, tonight’s debate is an opportunity to “continue the momentum” for the Romney/Ryan ticket while Biden has a chance to “bring the attention back” to the Obama campaign.

Franklin says although Ryan is a Southern Wisconsin Congressman, a number of Badger State residents still know little about him and this will be their chances to assess him as a Vice Presidential contender.

Biden will be stopping by La Crosse for a rally a day after the debate. It will be his third visit to Wisconsin since Labor Day.
