Bentsen's epic putdown of Dan Quayle will be remembered as one of the most memorable moments in the history of political debate. Even now, after 30 years, it remains hugely entertaining.

"That was really uncalled for, Senator" sounds like "Mommy, Lloyd Bentsen was a real meanie to me on the playground today!"

The coolest political debate burn ever! Mr. Bentsen put the little boy in his place there.

"I have as much experience as Jack Kennedy did". Sure you do, Mr. Potatoe.

At 0:22 Bentsen seems to really enjoy the moment. "Oh, senator, you really played it right into my hands and look at that wide open goal you left for me to play the ball into. I'm going to enjoy the next few seconds of this debate".

Epic moment.

Funny that both candidates look the opposite of each other’s political parties.

Got to admit, Lloyd Bentsen ripped Dan Quayle's heart out and feed it to him.

I remember watching this live.
My friend Lloyd Benson that was great!!
It's a shame the Dems didn't win in '88.

Wherever-

“You’re no Jack Kennedy” became a neologism for someone who has its head up it’s a⭐️⭐️!

fun fact: lloyd bentsen started his career in federal politics in 1948, when he was elected representative of texas. dan quayle was born one year before that in 1947.

Quayle is like a scared little boy. He is ridiculous.

The republican ticket combined had like 120 IQ in 1988. Bush, had 110, Quayle had 10. Quayle should have run again with W, just to make him look smart.
