Title: VP's debate: Both running mates added to Clinton's.
Post by: ideus on Wed, 05 October 2016, 08:08:54

Mike separates himself from Trump and made a point to be a viable candidate for the future. Tim rebuked on a long list of Trump's mistakes. In the aftermath, both performances benefited Clinton's position.

I didn't get a chance to watch it. Did it meet expectations? If so, what were the expectations?

This debate was much more tame than the presidential one last week. I think Kaine's performance was on par with Clinton, but Pence did much better than Trump. His pollish helped and he spent much less time being defensive.

Of course, the idea of who wins is subjective.

Pence did much better than Trump.

Naturally, he used to be a right-wing AM radio talk show host. He felt comfortable ignoring questions and talking staying off-topic.

Trump is a TV entertainer who has no experience facing challenges.

Public speaking experience comes handy at times.
