The last VP debate I watched had three people. Pence needs to win this and do it in a way Trump can't.
I'm already half drunk so it should be fun.

Hell, isn't that a prereq for political circus?
-
So far, way more polite and less interrupting.
-
They both suck
-
Forgot about it, put up a YT stream and took one look at the smug look on Harris's face and had to turn it off.
-
More polite, but they keep doing split screens showing Harris smirking and making faces through each of Pence's segments. I've only just started watching and am just fast forwarding through getting snippets.
The moderator is writing Nacy Pelosi's biography. I think Pence is doing pretty good considering her slanted questions which are basically "Why did Trump screw up?" to Pence and "How would Biden fix things? to Harris.
-

It is much better, hardly any cross-talk.
I still think they should cut one mic for those 2 uninterrupted minutes that start each segment at the very least.
-
They don't answer the question
-
Get the dang fly off your head Mike!
-
They don't answer the question
I thought Pence has done a much better job of being direct, but not every time. Harris keeps running away from every direct question like the one on if they will try to stack the SC. IMO, the main points which Harris makes that seem good are all long ago debunked "facts". It might work with some I guess.
I will be curious to see what the speaking time allowances are for each one, before and after the first time the moderator tried to stop them.
Overall I think Pence is doing a good job of being the complete opposite of Trump.
-
Crap can't take the lies
-
I am disappoint that neither of them directly answered on the peaceful transfer of power.
-
I managed about 5 minutes of watching Harris and couldnt stomach it. I'll get the analysis off youtube.
-
So I'm not the only one who can't tolerate Harris. I won't even try to watch her performances.
-
The Twitterverse this morning is all about the fly.
-
From looking at the various online synopses this morning, I guess I wasn't the only one who quickly got sick of Harris's constant smirking and making faces like a teenage girl.
Also apparently AOC is very upset that Pence called her AOC during the debate.

Just saw a headline that CNN scored it 59% for Harris and 38% for Pence. I guess that means Pence scored a knockout, right?
-
Coworker says Harris answered nearly all of the questions while Pence only answered one question.

CNN Sept 2 1945: This just in! Japan wins WW-II

I thought Pence answer the questions well and remained calm and reserved the whole time. I thought he did very well. Harris doesn't debate well IMO.
-
I keep trying to watch some of it but every time I see Harris's smirking smug face my blood pressure goes through the roof
-
I listened on the radio through the first 10 minutes then pulled the plug, unbearable.
The debates are useless for Republicans IMHO, other than to show how well (or not) they perform against the odds.
The moderators are always a disaster.
The consensus among sources I trust is Pence won if you are polling sane people.
Harris won if you are infantile and low IQ.
-
Harris won if you are infantile and low IQ.
As far as voting goes the dem controlled public schools have largely taken care of the latter, the dems are actively working on giving the right to vote to the former

Wait, what?
Every woman knows that condescending sexist man who repeatedly calls you by your name as a way to be disdainful and patronizing when he's talking to you and I don't know what the term for that is but it is A Thing and Mike Pence is doing it to Susan Page.

Yeah -- IIRC, Barbara Boxer had a problem with being addressed as "Ma'am." She wouldn't have been happy with "Mrs. Boxer" either.

I guess I'm old fashioned. My grandmother taught me that "Ma'am" was a term of respect. Times change ...

Reminds me of the games played concerning what we call the Black population of Americans.
negro, n****r, black, Black, African American, colored, I probably missed a few.
The left changes and confuses terms and names. Not knowing which term/name is appropriate in which situation is used as a hammer to attack. These aren't static terms but they move and change so unless you're in on the game you can never always get it right.
All of the names above are used without offense by the leftists but all of the terms above are fraught with danger if a person of the right uses them incorrectly (even innocently). There is no rule book for you to follow because then you would master the rules and it couldn't be used to beat you with then.
Just the act of me typing out those names and offering an opinion is an act of "racism".
Admit it, you flinched when you saw what I wrote.
Wake up, you've been conditioned.

My parents are from Arkansas, and they raised their kids to call people 'Sir' and 'Ma'am'. In recent years, I have been surprised to see how many women resent that term. The most common explanation I hear is that it makes them feel old.

It's obvious the Russians sent the fly to give Pence last minute information.
-
Didn't see it but Pence must have crushed Harris since the lefties on my FB feed can only talk about the fly.

Some guy on MSNBC said a fly is seen historically as a sign of sin and a mark of the devil

Oh, absolutely. They want us afraid to speak, or to think for ourselves, lest we say or think the wrong thing. And it works.

I call any woman regardless of age or martial status, "miss". I always get a smile.

No, they're the people who think their guy won.
