Goddam Hillary's running mate is Howard Dean 2.0 YEAAAAAAAHHHHHH

 

[OKTexas]

This debate was a great chance to get to know Kaine and Pence.

Otherwise it was rather insignificant overall.

Ya think? Consider this, 20% of VPs become the president when the president dies or resigns. A total of 9 VPs have become president under those circumstances. Had I been leaning toward the hildabitch, Kaine would have changed my mind.

 

[Lakhota]

Kaine was clearly the most honest debater. Pence lied out his ass.

 

[Lakhota]

Pence's holier-than-thou routine was nauseating.

 

[Carl in Michigan]

Pence makes me want to puke.

You shouldn't bring up topics you know NOTHING about. You're lying about the teachings of Christ -- EVERY point.

 

[initforme]

Indiana is a backwards place. Both pence and Kaine are big time crony corporatists....sellouts to big business. Downright scary how the dollar sign controls them.

 

[mudwhistle]

Kaine the asshole just defended partial birth abortion!

But says he's a good Catholic.

Can you imagine Tim VS Biden? The First "Dumb VS Dumber" Debate

 

[TNHarley]

That debate was a joke
The moderator was terrible
They wouldn't shut up. especially Kaine
Kaine lied his fucking ass off. Pence said a few zingers but my gawd. Trump is going to raise taxes on the middle class? LOL
Did anyone notice when they were talking about refugees, Kaine basically said the FBI was wrong, they can be vetted. Very NEXT subject, the emails came up. Kaine said "but the FBI said" LOL what an idiot.
Pence won the debate by far, IMO. However, that is NOTHING to brag about

 

[Carl in Michigan]

Weird how Trump and Kaine were alike in their performances while Hillary and pence were alike. Wtf is going on?

Not true at all. Hillary lacked substance. Pence was professional.

Trump and Kaine were completely different too.

The Takeaway List
How many times to Mike Pence deny Trump said things we have video of Trump saying? Here's the whole list with all the details.

- Josh Marshall

Apparently Pence decided to Build a Wall between himself and the things his running mate says

At the end of the night, the verdict was in: the running mate had virtually severed himself from the GOP nominee.

 

[deltex1]

Kaine was a pain.
Pence made sense.

Same as Clinton/Trump.

 

[Carl in Michigan]

I wonder if the Hillary campaign looked and saw how much attention Trump gets for being a loud insensitive ass hole and said "ok Tim, here's your talking points, go try to be Donald Trump."

Keyword being TRY. He failed miserably

My takeaway of the #VPDebate: Pence is asking Americans to get behind a candidate who's words he himself can not defend.

9:44 PM - 4 Oct 2016

 

[Carl in Michigan]

Don't forget, Pence said "It is inarguable that Putin is a stronger leader than Obama.

Of course he is. Obama is a national embarrassment.

 

[ColonelAngus]

Pence should have nailed Kaine on Hillarys lies way more aggressively.

Kane trying to say that Trump doesn't support the troops because he followed federal tax laws was stupid and disgusting. Whoever decided to conflate that bullshit needs to be removed from debate prep.

I hope Hillary says the very same thing in the next debate. Over 40% of Americans do not pay taxes, I guess all of them hate the troops and teachers.

Trying to make Trump evil because he followed the federal tax laws is colossally fucking stupid. The problem is that so many people are so stupid, they'll buy it. That what Hillary is banking on...the stupidity of the electorate.

 

[Toro]

We turned it off after an hour. It was boring compared to the Presidential debates.

 

[mamooth]

Pence set himself up well to be the GOP candidate of 2020.

Trouble is, he accomplished that by throwing Trump under the bus. He didn't even pretend he could defend Trump.

So, I'd say the winners of the debate were Pence and Clinton. Polls back that up. And the election is Clinton vs. Trump, not Kaine vs. Pence.

 

[bodecea]

Goddam Hillary's running mate is Howard Dean 2.0 YEAAAAAAAHHHHHH

Odd that you would deflect to someone who was not at the debate last nite. Apparently you feel this need to deflect......Pence was THAT bad, eh?
