Not sure what the MSM will say. I do know that the dems expect their candidates to speak without quivering and looking weak. Harris might even have said lines the dems like but her delivery was weak and not persuasive. Leftist partisans will come to her defense but their heart won’t be in it.
Pence could have been more aggressive with opportunities missed etc. But he is a smooth debater that doesn’t want to appear argumentative and wants foremost ... to do no harm and be a likable candidate. Perhaps a tad boring but he doesn’t tick anyone off. Opposite of Trump and complements Trump well. Pence delivered well tonight.
It was a highly disciplined performance by Pence and he made the key points he wanted to make. Great job.
Word seems to have gone out tonight around the MSM that Pence was “mansplaining”.
