My inarticulate lib take with wine: Vance was very smooth with the Gish Gallop strategy and totally new fake humble personality. Lots of words with no answers hoping the key negative words would stick . Very smooth with the fake concern. If he had never been on tape before in his life it would almost be semi-believable. Weird angle not knowing who has been president for four years and bestowing the office of vice president with vast supernatural powers. Crazy claims that escalated about Trump years. Manufacturing? Wages? I can't put Trump and "wise common sense" in the same room but he rode that myth like a pony. Vance got ridiculous with the migrants as a panacea problem for all that ails ya and energy/drilling /seizing land as the panacea vague answer for all that ails ya. No one on earth has been outbid on a house by a migrant and his numbers were fantastical. Vance became unlikeable when he lied about wanting a national abortion ban, Trump "saving" the ACA, and mansplaining and whining about fact checking to the point of being muted. (Women really hate that shit) And Vance lost the debate not being able to say Trump lost and instead lied saying Trump peacefully handed over power. Even his freezing granny couldn't save him on that whopper. Waltz was unpolished, at times awkward. Had a rough start, made a mess of the China thing and was totally relatable. He seemed like a guy you could approach with a differing opinion and even get somewhere, not someone using a persona of "agreeing with you but...." which got to be Vance's formula schtick ad nauseam. Waltz won on facts, Big Governor Experience and calling out lies without being shrill. He didn't need to pummel because he's not that guy. Actual clear plans without weeds. And most importantly, he sold Kamala Harris like a champ and never took the bait Vance scattered. And I want to live part-time in Minnesota, now.
