Sounds like a win for US democracy. Nice to see this kind of civility for a change, rather than the usual name-calling and tribalism.
Why did Walz spend all his time looking down and making copious notes while Vance was speaking? It was a really bad look. Vance only looked forward or at Walz, he made no notes. Even at 85 minutes in, Walz looked like he was composing the Gettysburg address on paper. Vance showed himself to be a masterful debater, given his background that's no surprise. Yes, Vance won that debate, as much as it pains me to say so. And yes, this was the start of the "Vance 2028" campaign, no doubt about that.
