As the vice presidential debate shifted to domestic issues, the vice presidential candidates were asked to weigh in on Medicare.
"They got caught with their hands in the cookie jar, robbing Medicare to pay for Obamacare," Ryan said of his assertion that seniors would lose Medicare access under the president's plan.
Biden continued to interrupt Ryan, attempting to argue with his assertions. "That's not true, more people signed up [for Medicare]," Biden said.
Ryan then addressed the first presidential debate, taking an ironic verbal shot at Biden. "I know you're under a lot of duress to make up for lost ground," Ryan said.
"Well, don't take up all the four minutes, then," Biden shot back.
Though for the record, at the time of the exchange, Biden had been speaking for over two minutes longer than Ryan in total debate time.
When it was officially Biden's turn again, he chose to address the debate cameras directly.
"Seniors are not denied choices," Biden said. "All you seniors out there, have you been denied choices?"
