I really hope they aren't going to see the questions in advance. I'd love to see Joe answering questions off the cuff. I would say that Ryan is going to make him look like an idiot, but it's too late for that. He does that by himself.

I hope you're all right. Unfortunately, with all the liberals running the debates, I'm afraid we'll get 'hard-hitting' questions such as "Mr. Biden, if you could be a tree, what kind of tree would you be?"

And then, "Mr. Ryan, why are you trying to kill my grandma by shutting down Medicare?"

And when Ryan laughs at the ridiculousness of the question, the whole country will be laughing with him. Count on it.

It's just a set-up. Biden will just respond, "Well, at least I'm a tree, and not a Bush. It's all Bush's fault. By the way, they all want to hang y'all from those trees!"

I'm right with you Bruce. You can bet the TV ratings for that debate will be through the roof.
I wanted to like Paul Ryan.

Before he was nationally known, Rep. Ryan visited me at ABC, and we went to lunch. He was terrific. He was a rare politician, one who actually cared about America's coming debt crisis and the unfairness of entitlements. He even talked about F.A. Hayek's "The Road to Serfdom"! If only more politicians thought that way.

But then the housing bubble burst. Ryan voted for TARP. Then he voted for the auto bailout. Who is this guy? I thought he believed in markets!

At Fox, when I got my own TV show, I asked him about...
