The debate: Kaine was the typical fast blabbing liberal with nothing more than Democrat talking points and no substance. Continuous, obnoxious interruptions bringing up Trump's taxes so that Pence couldn't get a word in seems to have been his debate plan.
Pence was calm and tried to keep the debate focused, but he missed a number of opportunities to put Kaine on the spot over Benghazi, emails, and although he tried to bring up the Clinton Foundation he could get no traction out of it because of the constant disruptions. You would think the world was the Garden of Eden thanks to Hillary listening to Kaine.
The final comments may have been the most revealing. Kaine claims a strong faith based background, but will not let his Catholic faith which is against abortion direct his politics. In other words, his faith means nothing to him at all.
Pence went into the well where most politicians fear to go and took a strong stand for pro-life, giving his Christian testimony of salvation, and showing that his faith directs his life. Kaine's only claim to victory would be that he prevented Pence from delineating the Trump platform by his constant interruptions, but in the process he made himself look more of a joker than Joe Biden in his debate against Paul Ryan four years ago. Pence, although he missed several opportunities to nail Hillary, wins on substance.
