Of course I'll watch it.

This whining "OMG it'll be so boring!!" - this isn't a reality show.

I will watch it, but I will likely need several cups of coffee to stay awake and perhaps something stronger, which could possibly make it at least not boring.

In case anyone is wondering, the highest-rated Vice Presidential Debate was Biden-Palin in 2008, with 69.9 million viewers.  The lowest-rated was Gore-Kemp in 1996, with 26.6 million viewers, followed by Cheney-Lieberman in 2000 (29 million viewers).

51.4 million watched Biden-Ryan in 2012.

I'll try not to fall asleep. It won't be too entertaining but most likely substantive.

This will be the lowest rated debate of the last 30 years possibly.   Two boring white men.

Here's an ideal; have all 4 candidates on stage Tongue      Trump might go so completely off the rails that he starts attacking Pence.

I probably still will since I'm a political junkie/loser, but the fact that even someone like me would consider skipping it means the ratings may very well be dire.

I will definitely watch, but this.

I will just No-Doz and imagine what a Gingrich or Christie vs. Warren debate would have been like.

Out of curiosity, is the "boring" part linked to the "white man" part?  If Clinton had picked Amy Klobuchar, would people call Klobuchar boring, or would the fact that she's a woman inherently make her an interesting veep prospect?

Maybe, to spice it up, they will allow Bill Weld to participate...
