Maybe this is a Northeastern thing, but I have no idea why anyone would be bothered by someone interrupting a stupid person as he tells lie after lie. If I were in the same room as someone like Mike Pence, I'd talk over him too.
That is not an ineffective way to persuade people. Kaine came off as immature and flighty to me, which was surprising.
Why any thinking person would even consider grading the candidates on style first, even exclusively, is what I would like to know. There's something very strange about this postmodern approach in which everyone instantly tries to evaluate these events as if all of us were peering behind the curtain and some other inchoate group is the true audience.
Maybe I sound as if I am trying to be hyperbolic, but I'm not. Only a very stupid or very ignorant person could have interpreted Pence's performance as anything other than an extremely and obviously dishonest act. How is that not the headline coming out of this?
