The vice presidential debate went Senator Vance's way. I'm going to explain that.

He did very well, but it was more than meets the eye.

So you're going to hear the knee jerk analysis today

means nothing.

It's mostly based on ideology, partisanship.

Ours is not. We're going to give you the facts behind what you saw.

A snap poll by CBS News right after the debate had Vance winning by just one point. I think it was 47, 46.

But that's because people believe what they want to believe. So if you were going in watching

the debate and you were a Harris Wall supporter, then he won. And same thing on the Trump Vance thing. Very few American

voters can separate themselves from a motion. We can, which is why you're here

worldwide. We don't have that emotion. We have preferences and we explain why.

So here's what actually happened last night

as presented in the Talking Points memo.

So who won? Well if you are a historian like I am you evaluate a vice presidential

debate by two yardsticks. Number one, which VP candidate helped his ticket the most?

Vance by far. Number two, which VP candidate was most presidential. I would think

Senator Vance won that one as well. It's not because I'm rooting, I'll back it up.

The problem with Governor Walls was that he came out shaky and you can see it.

All right, he was, and he's a human being.

Never been on that kind of a stage before, knows a lot on a line, he was shaky. And when

presented with him fabricating a story about being in China during Tenement Square, the revolution there,

he really looked uneasy, go.
