Pence is a dumb stone idol and he's going down in the first.

can we just loving change debates so that both candidates are given a few minutes to give their opening remarks from now on?

That was how it was in the 90s off the top of my dome.

I lay on my bed, dazed with drugs and whiskey.

Mike Pence pulls up to my bed.

Basically this will not matter, it might cut the unnatural lead Clinton has, giving the worst people an excuse to vote for Trump. But really doesn't matter.

But that Frank Luntz focus group was gag inducing.

because he repeatedly talked over the first asian female debate moderator in debate history

it was definitely lovely and dumb but he spent the whole debate swinging and Americans love momentum. I think Kaine won, at least if you are looking at what Kaine was trying to do (attack Donald Trump, the man running for president)

Again doesn't matter, but its the number one rule in debates. Don't talk over the moderator. You will look rude, and Americans hate rude people (crude, that's a different story). Michaelangelo encapsolates both dialetics.

Kaine is an unremarkable politician though. He can't really pull off the attack dog thing. Biden is a master of that, managing to lay sick burns with a smile.

The people who would be influenced by the debate to finally come off the fence are people who would come around to one side or the other before the election, whether it was the previous debate, or one of the ones coming up, or some random news story.

It was a draw in a tactical sense, and it's likely that it was always going to be that way unless one side or the other really implodes.

However, I'd call it a minor strategic victory for Hillary, in that she's winning now and it won't do anything other than eat up a couple news cycles that Trump could (at least in theory) otherwise use to swing the race in his favor.

I really suggest this for everyone in this thread: ignore pundits for a couple of days. They're gonna hammer this Kaine failure narrative non-stop, until Trump does something shiny and racist.
