    Veep Debate - Vance vs Walz

    CBS News will spend the next three hours going around in circles discussing the debate which is expected to be live on YouTube.

    Meanwhile Walz will most probably have to explain this bit of time travel on his resume..

    Tim Walz Said He Was in Hong Kong in 1989 During Tiananmen. Not True.

    They are both saying, "Damn, now I have to cram information about Iran and hypersonic missiles and stuff at the last minute..."

    I recall Lloyd Bentsen soundly beating Dan Quayle in the 1988 VP debate. Result? No effect whatsoever on the presidential outcome. George "Read My Lips: No New Taxes" Bush, Sr. went on to win.

    Tim Walz's whereabouts in 1989? As Salvador Dalí said "Have no fear of perfection–you'll never reach it".

    So far... Vance is by a fair margin a better debater.

    Up next .. Walz to defend his travel records. Something something and some more things about misspeaking... nothing to do with the time travel.

    Should have done an apology ...

    Didn't even answer the question, just waffled about riding his bike and then going to China.

    Calling a draw at this point.

    Those liking Walz will continue liking him.

    Without Trump, at least I can watch it without cringing. However, late night comedians are upset...

    Vance’s team went into this debate with the idea that the Walz people would assume he’d double down on everything and be an attack dog. His lower-key approach — seeking moments to agree with Walz and to emphasize bipartisanship — is one of the ways they looked to throw him off balance.
