THE NOW video — The nation waits with bated breath for tonight's vice presidential showdown between current VP Joe Biden and his opponent, Paul Ryan.

Here are a few action-packed minutes that capture some of those awkward gaffes back-to-back. This is by no means a comprehensive compilation — and there might be an extended version of this clip after tonight's debate.
