« on: September 30, 2024, 07:09:54 pm »
Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and Ohio Sen. JD Vance are set to take the stage for a debate on Tuesday, likely the only debate between the vice presidential candidates as the election enters its final stretch.

The vice presidential debate is being hosted by "CBS Evening News" anchor and managing editor Norah O’Donnell and "Face the Nation" moderator Margaret Brennan, taking place on Tuesday, Oct. 1 at 9 p.m. ET. CBS News will host the debate, and coverage begins at 8 p.m. ET.

Now if I were Vance I'd be wearing something inconspicuous that would listen for, locate and jam incoming signals for a very small radius - say 5 yards or so.

That would be fun to watch.

No opening statements, no audience, and no fact-checking: Rules of the vice presidential debate
By

.

Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN) and Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) will face off in the lone vice presidential debate on Tuesday evening, and while many of the rules will be the same as the two presidential debates, there will be some key differences.

The 90-minute debate, hosted by CBS, will be held at the network’s studios in New York City and will likely be the final debate of the 2024 cycle for either the presidential or vice presidential candidates. Here are the rules for the debate between Vance and Walz.

No muted mics

The microphones were muted during the two presidential debates, between President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump in June and between Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris in September, but for the vice presidential debate, CBS has said the microphones will only be muted at each candidate’s discretion.

The network said it reserves “the right to turn off candidate microphones” but that, unlike the CNN and ABC debates, microphones will not be muted while the other candidate is speaking.
Moderators won’t be fact-checkers

CBS said it will not be fact-checking the candidates. Rather, it will leave it up to the candidates to fact-check each other. The outlet has said it will provide fact-checking live on its website while the debate airs.

The approach by CBS will likely be similar to CNN’s June debate rather than ABC News’s September debate. The fact checks ABC News’s moderators offered in the September debate were criticized for being biased against Trump while not going after Harris’s false statements.
Strict timing for questions and answers

CBS’s Norah O’Donnell and Margaret Brennan will be the only people asking questions during the debate, with each candidate receiving two minutes to answer a question and the other candidate receiving two minutes to respond. Each candidate will also get one minute for rebuttals, with candidates also receiving “an additional minute each to continue a discussion,” at the discretion of O’Donnell and Brennan.

The candidates will not have opening statements, but each will get a two-minute closing statement. A coin toss was held, which Vance won, allowing him to have the second closing statement — meaning he will have the final word between the two candidates.

CBS has said neither Vance nor Walz has been given any of the topics or questions that will be asked at the debate.
Candidates on their feet

The venue for the debate will be a television studio, like the June CNN debate between Biden and Trump, and it similarly will not include a live audience.

Both Vance and Walz will be standing behind podiums for the duration of the debate, while O’Donnell and Brennan will be seated. Vance will be standing on the left, while Walz will be standing on the right. This marks the first time candidates haven’t been sitting for a vice presidential debate since 2008.

At the podium, each candidate will have a pen, paper, and a bottle of water. Candidates will not be allowed to have props or prewritten notes.

The venue will also have a countdown with lights indicating how much time a candidate has left. The light will be green until there are 15 seconds left. At that time, the light will go yellow, and at five seconds left, the light will flash red. Once the clock hits zero, the light will be solid red.

Other rules

The debate will be 90 minutes, with two four-minute commercial breaks, beginning at 9 p.m. During the commercial breaks, campaign staff will be prohibited from interacting with the candidates.

The candidates will be introduced with the incumbent party going first, meaning Walz, as the Democratic nominee for vice president, will be introduced before Vance.

The debate will be broadcast on CBS and streamed on Paramount+ on Tuesday night. Various other networks, including ABC News, NBC, Fox News, and CNN, will also air live simulcasts of the debate.

Tim Walz Really Excited After Hearing He Might Get Spanked At Debate
Politics · Sep 30, 2024 · BabylonBee.com

 A source close to the Harris campaign reveals Tim Walz is "very excited" for this week's Vice Presidential Debate after learning he might get spanked by JD Vance.

"I was nervous at first because Vance seems to know what he's talking about," Kamala Harris' running mate said, "but I didn't realize it was that kind of a debate."

"I can barely contain my excitement!"

Walz, a known tampon aficionado, claims to be "an actual heterosexual married to a woman," dispelling rumors that he is a gay man. However, his newfound eagerness for a spanking by Vance appears to contradict previous statements that he "loves the womens."

"I'm not a gay," Walz said on the campaign trail. "Why do people keep asking me that?" ...

As a political junkie, probably yes.  Even though I know this is all pre-planned, and scripted by CBS.   Those two moderators are nasty bitches.  Just watch any of their political interviews.

Kellyanne Conway hopes vice presidential debate pushes Trump to face off with Harris again
By
Emily Hallas
October 1, 2024 1:11 pm
.

Former White House adviser Kellyanne Conway has faith that former President Donald Trump isn’t “totally” ruling out a second debate with Vice President Kamala Harris.

Conway argued Trump wouldn’t want his running mate’s Tuesday debate against Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN) to “be the last word of presidential debates of this season” as she pushed her one-time boss to agree to another face-off with Harris.

“I know you, and I just believe when you see the end of that debate–are you going to let that be the last word of presidential debates of this season? End of your career? Or are you going to want one more?” she asked during an interview with Trump on Monday morning.

Her question anticipated Sen. J.D. Vance’s (R-OH) CBS debate with Walz.

Saw where Vance's VPOTUS debate coach who is from MN is very familiar with Walz' debate history, and said he is a top notch debater.

This so called  "nerves issue" is a bald faced lie to  lower expectations.

Nor will I. Walz turns my stomach.
I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.
