Biden ‘Marlarkey’, Ryan ‘Adorkable’

Two words can be used to distill the essence of  Thursday Night’s Vice Presidential Debate:  Malarkey v. Adorkable. On the one hand you have Joe Biden in familiar territory talking, interrupting, spinning, smiling feverishly to help the Democrats regain control of the political narrative after the widely perceived misteps of the president in the first presidential debate; on the other you have Paul Ryan, the wonder wonk, attempting to demonstrate 1) that he is NOT Sarah Palin, and 2) that he is more than simply a policy wonk and has the attendant seriousness, intelligence and skill set necessary to sit a heartbeat away from the presidency. Both succeeded in their appointed tasks/ Paul JJ Payack , The Hill. More here. (AP photo)

Question: Do you use the terms “malarkey” or “adorkable”?
