Midwestern-nice VP debate yields restrained reactions for Walz and Vance

More detailed policies and fewer made-for-TV zingers during Tuesday night’s vice-presidential debate offered less opportunity for members of Congress to immediately go after Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN) or Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH).  The candidates’ Midwestern-niceness and civil rhetoric underscored a contrast with the more tense and bombastic showing on display just weeks earlier between Vice […]

Mr. Vice Guy: Vance comes out on top by showing softer side

Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) dominated the vice presidential debate against Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN) on Tuesday night, most importantly showcasing a softer side in a series of surprisingly civil exchanges.

There were notably fewer viral instances this […]

CBS moderators slammed for going against VP debate rules, fact-checking Vance and muting mics

CBS’s vice presidential debate moderators, Norah O’Donnell and Margaret Brennan, took heat online for their fact-checking of Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) and then muting his microphone despite debate rules against such actions. As the Republican vice presidential candidate, Vance faced off against Gov.

Grading the candidates: Vance wins and Walz survives substantive VP debate

Vice presidential nominees Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN) and Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) had one responsibility during their first and only debate and possibly the last head-to-head of the 2024 election. That responsibility was to “do no harm” to Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump one month before voters cast their final ballots […]
