    Will this turn into another shit show like the Trump vs Biden debate. I hope not. And Pence is not Trump, it's not his style to go on borderline insane rants. Besides, it will look especially bad for Pence if he is seen as trying to bully a woman. Women voters are already turning against Trump, so any action seen as being sexist will not help.

    So hopefully, there will be more debate on the substance, on policies and so forth. Of course, a Vice-Presidents' power on paper is rather limited. Although their actual decision-making and execution of duty can vary a lot, from being pretty useless like a painting or plant just existing there in the background to playing an active role in shaping and implementing policies (Biden btw was a pretty active Vice-President in the Obama administration). So we'll see how the debate goes.

    Yep... both of them still sticking to their talking points - and stumbling in my opinion.

    No question has really been answered.

    First hit on my bingo card, Pence has said "tax and spend" surprised it took him so many minutes into the debate to get to "Democrats are the party of tax and spend..."

    Really thought there would be more time limit respect and less interruption of each other- they are almost as bad as Trump/Biden, just less nasty about it...

    More bingo points for me, "pre-existing conditions" and "V-shaped recovery" and "Green New Deal..."

    Edit:

    It goes without saying "Obamacare" has been mentioned quite a bit...
