Vice Presidential Debate Megapost! Tue, 10/1/2024
Final (?) Debate thread before the election in 35 days.
Debate begins at 9 PM Eastern, 6 PM Pacific and runs 90 minutes.
Vice Presidential debates are always tricky since nobody has voted for Vice President in living memory.
Expect Vance to attack Walz on his military service.
Expect Walz to attack Vance on the whole "immigrants eating cats and dogs" thing.
Expect Vance to attack Walz on being an assistant coach, at best.
Expect Walz to roll out "Weird!" at least once.
CBS has announced the burden of fact checking will be on the candidates themselves.

I really hope Walz hammers Vance on women’s rights and LGBTQ issues. Just make that the focus of the whole thing, because those are the issues that will win in the margins of historically nonvoters. I really hope this campaign can finally understand why many voters are disenfranchised, and start finally enfranchising them.
Vast swathes of voters are unaffiliated because nobody cares about them. I know the dem candidates are capable of caring, but they need to show it.
Dude on CBS pre-game saying he hopes Walz will focus on the border because that’s the main issue non voters need to hear, like what? That’s nearly all people hear. You’re getting paid to say this? Wtf.
