The most popular flavor of ice cream in America is vanilla. (Most surveys suggest it clocks in at 29 percent.) But I doubt many people choose to eat it plain. I know I'd rather eat the chocolate chip cookie dough a pint of it, actually, while watching Netflix.
Vanilla is our choice to serve as a complement, often mellowing a too-rich dessert.
That's how I view the VP candidates this time around. A La Mode.

I disagree. Cheney destroyed Edwards and it affected election.

Kaine is not Vanilla...more like Mississippi Mud, let’s try to confuse people about what I really believe by throwing a whole bunch of beliefs ( ingredients) together and hope that I am electable ( taste good.) Example he likes to claim he is Catholic but is the running mate of a rabidly pro death politician.
Also remember that real vanilla is pretty awesome, it comes from only one species of orchid and is rare and expensive. Any serious baker could attest to the price one needs to pay for real vanilla extract. Let’s not be fooled by the imitations!

More like a refreshing, pallet-cleansing sorbet versus packed fudge with ambiguous rainbow sprinkles on the down-low.

Pence should start out by asking Kaine to explain how that open marriage thing works.

And Biden looked like a MENSA-member against Paul Ryan.

Ryan injured his ticket. No doubt. I think Pence’s experience will win the night. I wonder why the media is downplaying this big time?

I agree. Isn’t he a former talk radio host? If so, i expect the verbal side to be strong.

Based on Pence’s performance on the campaign trail, he can more than hold his own in a debate.

I hope it comes across that Gov. Pence is a devout Christian,
And that Sen. Kaine is a devout politician.

Because Pences experience will win the night.

Vanilla v. Banana Nut
By the way, I think most Americans will sense that Pence is much better suited to take on the duties of the highest office in the land, should he be called upon to do so at some point in the future.
Night and day.

Yup.
This thing’s a lock
Plus, the enemedia has to hide Kaine’s radicalism, UN and Goldman Sach’s connections, along with the ‘refugge’ work.

Vanilla tastes good and yes numbskill people eat it “plain”. True story, my Grandma took 3 of her sons to get ice cream once, one asked for vanilla, one for white, and one for plain.
Pence might be vanilla.
Kaine is garlic ice cream made with HIV+ breast milk.
