Dems view “politeness” as a sign of weakness. You can’t play nice with vipers.
Yes respectful and polite was warranted back when the Democrat Party was not so extreme.
“If only we could get the moderators to not be one-sided.”
Very easy, let each side pick its own interviewer. The Republicans should only do a debate under that condition.
Disagree with that. Walz showed himself to be a bumbling fool, his eyes bugging out he was so nervous and unprepared.
Kamala is exactly the same unless she is highly coached, scripted, and put in front of a friendly interviewer with softball questions.
Vance is the one who showed intelligence and decency - Walz constantly fell back on attacking Donald Trump as his answer to everything - that's b/c he's got nothing.
Absolutely NO NEED for ANY moderators. Just a "timekeeper" and lights. The questions are the same for each candidate, from the top polled topic down the list. 2 min each and 1 min rebuttal, and that's it.
America won nothing.
I don’t feel freer or better off than I did on Tuesday.
“Going forward, no matter who wins, I feel better about America’s prospects for the next four years.”
This guy is a complete moron. He’s from the “reach across the aisle” wing of the republican party. Quick to surrender to get along.
Makes sense to me.
Put a sock knit shortstop.
That’s more or less what I meant. When they were not against human biology and Western Civilization.
Yes.
I hated yesterday’s debate. Now the only time Bible verses are cited readily and accepted is to justify abortion and unwalled borders with undeterred crime.
The left has won the culture and we’re just tiptoeing on their turf.

Lonsbery’s emotions may be too important to himself. With all that is at stake, does Lonsberry think it is important that Vance was nice?
America did not win anything last night. His attitude here is at least immature and at worst naive.
The same number of one-sided moderators on EITHER side would be good, too.
100% agree. Conservatism and traditionalism have been obliterated in the culture.
I suspect that in addition to being as far Left as Harris, Walz was selected to play the role of “nice guy/teacher/coach being abused by mean men”. By pulling his punches and refraining from being drawn into the Dem’s game plan, Vance came off more favorably than I had hoped for.
Trump let Harris run him around by exploiting his fixation on responding to every nasty lie and allegation she served up. If there is another Presidential debate, I hope Trump will dismiss her attacks as childish wastes of time, and hammer on policy-policy-policy, force Harris to talk about serious matters and explain how her Presidency will be different than her four years in the Biden-Harris administration.
Well, I will disagree. Polite debate? Yes.
But Vance did more than just show as a good VP choice, his demeanor demonstrated he could take the reins if needed.
Tim Walz, sadly failed in that regard.
With a world on fire, these two men are important picks for the often overlooked office of VP.
“The left has won the culture and we’re just tiptoeing on their turf.”
***************
They won the culture war because they have a party that relentlessly fights for them.
We don’t.
Those with the biggest will to win usually do. Just saying.
I also agree that Que-Mala chose poorly. Walz didn’t come off as a graceful loser; he came off as a man whose vengeful preparation against Trump failed because he depended on the moderators to back stop him and in forgetting he was debating Vance who is clearly superior. He was outmatched from the start. He should not have been there.
It’s not like Kamala was the one who made the decision.
