VP Debate — Vance vs Walz
Dear Friends,
I watched with interest the well advertised Vice President Debate between Vance and Walz.
Indeed it was not what I expected. I would say that Vance made the most logical points and Walz was all over the place, however his rhetoric was decent in response to the soft ball questions from the prejudiced moderators.
Frankly, the debate was “Milk Toast” with little vitriol. I was wondering if the two participants were going to kiss each other. Vance missed some opportunities to really nail Walz on his past and lies, but did not seize the day.
Walz was exposed for his China visits and exaggerations during the past protests.
The debate in my view was insignificant and won’t move the polls at all in the general election in the TRUMP/VANCE vs HARRIS/WALZ.
That’s the way I see it. As always your comments are welcome and appreciated.
Sincerely Yours,
JUDSON Bennett-Coastal Network
