Vice-President who?


There’s a debate tonight. It hasn’t gotten a lot of coverage.

It might be because it’s going to be pretty boring. Or maybe because no one knows who these guys are.

The New York Times has a fun quiz to remedy this situation. Disclaimer: it only contains the fun stuff; the stuff that you really care about.

Did you know that Tim Kaine has an eyebrow with a life of its own? Me neither!

Media is hyping the debate as a contest between “sitcom dads” (New York Times) “What's-His-Face and Who's-That-Guy" (Karl Rove on Fox) “America's most mild-mannered political figures” (Bloomberg) and “the normals” (Politico). They’ve both prepared extensively and will likely debate the issues (gasp).

It sounds like compelling television.

On Fox, Kellyanne Conway promised that Pence would be “feisty” tonight. I hope so.

Watching an old white dude get feisty with another old white dude on national television; that will be something to see.
