Most people say Pence did better. I think he had the edge too.
That debate started out badly. Kaine interrupted right out of the gate. I kind of like when the candidates get to talk a little back and forth, but this was really talking over Pence. Not good.
Kaine also threw in the word supremist in the very beginning, which really turned me off.
I know more than one person who turned it off after 30 minutes, because they were bored or annoyed. It’s a shame because the last 20 minutes when Kaine got to do his schtick regarding his personal beliefs and being pro choice is so incredibly good! I’ve seen him say it once before. It’s a speech about our country being a country of laws, about religious freedom, about having a right over our medical decisions and our bodies. Too bad they didn’t start with that topic.
Both of them tried to sneak in their talking points and twist the words of the other. I hate that. Such a big turn off for me.
