FOX News senior political analyst Brit Hume was critical of Vice President Joe Biden’s demeanor during the debate with Paul Ryan.

“What you saw while Paul Ryan was talking, as others have pointed out was smirking, laughing, smiling, mugging by the Vice President,” Hume said, suggesting that “everyone noticed” it.

“So it will come down to whether people thought that was attractive or not,” Hume added. “Myself, I didn’t. I thought it was rude and I have a feeling it will come across to a lot of people as rude. It looked like a cranky old man to some extent debating a polite young man.”
