This transcript is automatically generated

All this comes on the eve of the first and only scheduled vice presidential debate less than a month -- the election and polls apparently tightening the stakes are well their -- Vice President Biden under pressure to reverse governor Romney's momentum following president Obama's debate performance or lack thereof.

The VP has decades of experience debating and he has had some glory debates YouTube Google it do something look it up it's great.

But a well known reputation for gaffes which is what makes them so great.

The Republican congressman Paul right on the other hand had lots of different specific positions but doesn't -- any of them.

Maybe -- capitalize on the momentum tomorrow who knows he's made a name for himself and congressman remains a relative newcomer to the national stage with -- -- John Blanco who is a former consultant on -- Obama's campaign back in 2008.

And John redneck Republican minority leader in new Jersey state this in the minutes always fun when they give -- two Johnson once.

So we'll -- destroy both -- who happens.

Tomorrow and the big the big question really is you know Obama got it got a bump after his.

Convention because people on both sides seem to think his convention with a lot better than the other -- commitment the other one was bad as what was better.

He got a bit of a -- there.

And then.

There's a new book that came for governor Romney in this last debate but there's an argument you can make that this is more significant because.

Did he just give them an alternative to Obama.

It -- if they've done that the people run fits.

Has this race just really fundamentally change.

-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- What the governor Romney had to -- yet did today there's no two is about a 67 million people watched -- governor period go up.

He -- he did in very good job I and I I love baseball but I I would take the baseball analogy and say I think.

He got a couple of runs there's no doubt but he's still behind a couple of runs when you look at the electoral map.

And you look at the -- what appears to be some movement backed President Obama and the tracking polls last few days it's it's hard to know how big the bump is going to be.

But there is a -- there's no two ways about it and now I think if you -- up targets of against Ryan what would you try to get him talk about.

The stuff he would frankly I'd call -- out and I would call not his BS I mean what will he get them rather than saying that giving a specific.

Okay well he is he is held as a deficit hawk and yet his own budget doesn't balance till 2040.

What I mean the Olsen Twins will be 54 by the time his budget balances how how can -- Claim that's according to the reporting of -- -- of the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office those numbers are actually right.

-- people people wanna knows who's gonna man energy economy and money and if you're gonna take your money who -- gonna give it to.

You neither did Joseph Biden and Barack Obama or you can give it to Ryan and you -- -- Romney will -- iPad but it -- but don't don't.

But is it that you're -- that people really do want some specifics.

What I night I think with a good are you you're saying that you're not gonna mess with the -- is -- the deficit is not gonna.

But you're not adding any more tax money.

How does that work and nobody would have -- -- -- little while those he doesn't talk about the stimulus didn't let him know in this.

The other series stimulating the economy than he did the president he hasn't laid out his plan and now -- percent they're saying well why doesn't president of the governor -- and lay out his -- he's done it over and over again -- -- Clinton always he's not planning big -- and that that's the extent of the -- a couple of five revenue on the side of the momentum and I would against the weight of what I -- especially -- finally get -- it if you gonna drive across the country and you -- -- in fifteen hours you can't do that unless you speed.

And right now that's what Mitt Romney is saying that nobody -- -- It seems like -- both.

And we don't fix this but neither one of them has told us how.

And it would it stands to reason to me that the American people would go you should really tell us now.

But they're not -- I'm guessing there won't -- when -- Greg Jones and I mean look and I think you'll hear I think -- hear from the vice -- article there's some things it'll be very exciting I doubt we'll hear anything -- and I went down to details as well does he get details an -- for because the truth her.

I think -- a tough fight guys John John and everyone John today.
