The VEEP debate

[xenon]

That was nice and boring.

[Loki]

A draw. But nothing would have helped Trump tonight.

[Mik]

I preferred the presidential debate.

As a form of entertainment?

Harris makes me have the urge to slap the shit out of her.

[Loki]

Listening to how a black women has to be restrained. What a load. Anyone watch her during Kavanaugh? Do journalists think the public is that stupid?

[Larry]

Yes, they do think that. And to a point they're right. It's why we have a Democrat party...

[Loki]

If the fly does indeed get the most mentions you know Kamala’s impact.

[Jolly]

Court-packing.

Elect Joe. It's coming.

Well - we're moving firmly into the era of "if you have the votes, do it".

ACB makes it far more likely.

Impossible without that appointment

Well, it certainly worked for Dingy Harry.

And look where it got you.

My summary:

• a better debate than last week, for what little that’s worth

• both sides managed to say what they needed to say to not upset or disappoint their people

• this changes nothing, like every other VP debate.

If Biden wasted his first year on packing the Supreme Court it would as bad as Obama with single payer. Obama proceeded to lose the house, the senate and governorships following.

[Doctor Phibes]

As if the fucking debates weren't already like horror movies. Now, there's a fly crawling into his orifices like he's a freaking Nazgul.

Daily Beast: Honest Headline Shut Us Down

"We had nothing to lose," said one editor, "so we decided to take a flyer and tell the truth." DB's website was down for 17 minutes as a shocked America tuned in to witness the phenomenon. "Knocked the crap out of our servers," he added.

The headline? VEEP DEBATE AS BORING AND POINTLESS AS POLLS PREDICTED IT WOULD BE. "Nothing to see here," the lede said.

"Well, except for the fly," said Ernest Schlachtman of Biloxi, Mississippi in a man-on-the-street interview.

[George K]

No idea if this is true or not.

This is fly-related but a serious comment so I’m posting here.

The Trump campaign hasn’t been able to come up with a single humorous spin on the fly yet. My guess is by the end of the day they’ll settle on Rand’s deep state joke.
