LOL!

There’s catastrophic debate failure, and there’s cratering. The depth of the Walz crater is still being assessed.

1) Debates do not matter any longer, until they do – this debate mattered in part because it was the follow-up to Trump’ key debate message that he shares the same fears as the “common man”, Vance explained how the fear can be addressed by re-electing a president that had delivered Peace & Prosperity before.

2) Vance is exhibit A on how Trump will upgrade his team if re-elected.

3) Unlike Kaine, Walz had already faded before the VP debate – not sure possible to meaningfully reduce his exposure any further, and the damage has been done.

Yeah, you know what they also don’t have a lot of in Finland, just like Vermont?

My bias: I like Vance, so I want to make sure I’m not just seeing what I want to see.

Vance handled himself very well with understanding and patience in this pig pen cloud of dust

He had to do a live semjnar on election law on climate science and economics all at thd same time while dodging more arrows than custer

“Not since the Kennedy vs. Nixon matchup has there been a candidate who performed so much worse when people could see his face. And Walz’s bugged-out eyes, quivering apple pie chin, and the profile of a decaying jack o’lantern lost the debate more eloquently than any words.”

Earlier I wrote I listened to about 10 minutes on the radio and thought Walz did a good job. He sounded concerned, caring and kind.

I watched about 45 minutes of the debate later, and Walz did not come over well on television. Vance was poised and commanding. Walz seemed frenetic, defensive and menacing at times. Walz did a decent job of thinking on his feet; weaving in positive points for he and Harris and negative attacks on Trump and Vance, but on the few times the moderators questioned his record he fumbled.

One can only imagine how poorly he and Harris would do if the Press treated them like they do Republicans. In other words, if the Press actually did its job.
