Mike Pence

[gunslingerdick]

laid the smackdown on Tim Kaine last night. That was a mismatch of epic proportions. Even CNN called the win a landslide for Pence. The Trump Campaign should use him a lot more than they have if Donald can stomach sharing the spotlight.

And he was rocking that tight Julius Cesar hairdo.

I'll give you that one!

Can we get Trump and Pence to switch roles? Between the 4 Pence is to me the most presidential by a land slide! If you consider that the VP becomes president in the event something occurs to the POTUS, then Kane is no where near being in Pence's league.

CNN's poll had it 48-42 for Governor Pence, hardly a landslide.
Senator Kaine pounded Trump with his own words over and over again with Donald's own words, which Pence had absolutely no answer for. There were no Sarah Palin moments last evening, so, I doubt that the needle will move much at all, if any, for Trump after last night's VP debate.

Kaine helped continue the Democrat's defining of DT as a bigot that is completely out of touch with the middle class. Speaking of CNN, they have a poll that reveals that 73% of voters want Trump to release his tax filings, which he isn't going to do, and that will hurt him.

In another poll, 70% believe that senator Kaine would do a good job as President should that need arise.

In my opinion, Trump is not going to win this election, there is simply not enough angry white men votes to catapult him over the finish line ahead of HC. For the first time since 1956, college educated men are in Clinton's corner . .

They also prefaced by saying the individuals polled were primarily Democrats. That holds a lot of weight.

Secondly, my thoughts on last night are that Pence righted the ship and is handing the baton back to Trump with a golden opportunity to take back the momentum he had before that last debate. Trump needs to get over this egotistical pride issue he seems to have and learn from Pence. There's no place for jealousy here, if those insider reports are indeed true.

Agreed.

Pence looked Presidential. It took me a while to see it because it's been so long since I've seen anyone look Presidential. I thought he was fantastic.

Pence isn't running for Prez . . and I do believe that both sides have made very adequate VP choices.

America is going to choose between DT and HC, and DT is the one and only republican candidate of the original 17 that has the ability to make HC look like the better candidate. Had John Kasich been the GOP's choice, this election wouldn't even be close . .

Good luck with that.

Which poll?

 

[BillyL]

Which poll?

CNN

 

[UNC71-00]

CNN

From the methodology:

A total of 1,501 adults were interviewed by telephone nationwide by live interviewers calling both landline and cell phones. Among the entire sample, 27% described themselves as Democrats, 24% described themselves as Republicans, and 49% described themselves as independents or members of another party.


CNN polls don't concern me a bit. They are probably one of the more biased.

The GOP could have run O.J. Simpson against Clinton and won. DT is one of the few people in America that can't beat her and who do we pick????

You're welcome.

 

[coryfly]

In what I watched I thought Pence lied a bunch and Kaine could have 'won' if he wasn't such a whiney little baby. Kaine made some good points and did a much better job of going after Trump and defending Clinton than Pence did of the opposite. I couldn't stand to listen to him though. He lost for me simply because of that, which was all reflected in the more specific questions asked to the people polled. I don't know if I can tolerate that dude for four years.

I really, really don't understand why North Carolina has so many country folk that vote Democrat. I've never, ever understood it and won't ever. THAT is why North Carolina is a purple state, not transient yankees.

Look at Georgia. Fulton County (Atlanta) is very, very blue. The rest of everyone else in the entire state? Red as red can be. The "should be red" folks in Georgia are indeed GOP voters. Why do so many 'country' folks in N.C. vote blue? I don't get it.

 

[Heels Noir]

Because our rednecks are smarter than yours.

If by "smarter" you mean they enjoy not keeping the money they earn, then sure.

Well, you're close. I've never NOT voted with the GOP for president.

It is a great mystery to me also.

 

[UNC71-00]

It is a great mystery to me also.

Because for the longest time, the only way to have influence when voting was to vote for the Democrat you thought had the best chance of helping you. However most of those counties show people as registered Democrats, yet the GOP wins the elections there.

The reason NC would go for a Democrat in the presidential election really is because of Charlotte and RTP.

This is a mystery to me as well. Up here in MA we have an abundance of immigrants, both legal and illegal (don't get me started on how frustrating it is that illegal immigrants can find their way into the polling place fairly easily), as well as bleeding hearts that feel sorry if they're successful. From what I gather, the immigrant percentage isn't as high in NC, and outside of Chapel Hill, I didn't find many people in NC that felt sorry if they were successful. Boggles my mind that NC could be Blue.

 

[Hark_The_Sound_2010]

Also - quick aside. One of the questions (#4) on the MA ballot this year is for legalization of marijuana (which would be similar to the Colorado and Washington rules). MA has been die hard liberal forever (probably only second to CA in that regard).

Yet - I'm hearing rumors from polls that question #4 will fail. Seriously!?!?!? The one fuggin time I'd get some sort of benefit from living in this liberal hell-hole of a state, and these bozos are gonna take that away from me? Get me the F outta here.

It really is a shame that Trump won the nomination. Pence or any number of Republicans would be a far better choice and have a much better chance of defeating a Democratic candidate that very few actually appear to like. I don't for one minute think Trump can be elected. We are in for a world of hurt either way.

The best we can come up with to govern our country is Clinton and Trump? Both incompetent, egotistical, dishonest, inveterate liars. We're the Roman Empire right before it totally collapsed, immorality and decadence are rampant and our leadership is leading us into further decline.
