I think in general the debate will be largely forgotten in a week.

NBC News just polled their focus group of 6 undecided voters in Pennsylvania who won the VP debate.

5 of 6 said Tim Walz won the debate.

The venn diagram of "people who are undecided" and "people who are invested in the actual debate" are two seperate circles.

I think the soundbite of Vance saying "I was told there would be no fact checking" and vance giving the non-answer on certifying the debate might have some impact, but not much.

The biggest soundbite will be Vance saying "The American people don't trust me or my party" on the abortion question

I do think with demos like the ones in PA Walz style would resonate more than Vances.
