Oct 2

it was indeed what I hoped for. Gov Walz did a great job imo. I liked his performance completely last night.
Calm. Knew the answers. Stated them well. No gaffes.
I like hearing stuff he has to say. Calm, kind, smart and able day one.
vance is grim and is w the pro russia appeasement group as well. He was bought in Ohio by thiel. He still is. Should just ask p thiel what he's got planned for America and cut out the middle man.

It was the first time Vance looked good MadameButterfly Oct 4 #54

He was fine with me wryter2000 Oct 2 #7

I liked the 'mean mugging' from Walz Prairie_Seagull Oct 2 #8

Excellent point. Iris Oct 2 #9

typical poozwah Oct 2 #25

I think Tim did just fine and really connected with a lot of people. My only fault was his China answer. bluesbassman Oct 2 #27

Unfortunately, I agree. But it was only a very minimal cringe for me. littlemissmartypants Oct 2 #36

Yes, just would've been a great contrast to that smarmy POS if Tim just boldly said "I mis-spoke" right out of the gate. bluesbassman Oct 2 #45

He did not have to be a snarking attack dog but Playingmantis Oct 2 #29

Quite simply, I trust Kamala Harris and her VP pick as well. BlueWavePsych Oct 2 #30
