"You whipped out that Mexican thing again."

Kaine was having his pinata night, attacking Trump from start to finish, and Pence was at a loss to defend Trump. Finally Pence said Trump lacks polish.
No kidding Sherlock! And a frustrated Pence said "... and, you know, so his words don't always come out exactly the way he means them." Nearing the end of the debate, Kaine had him on the ropes. Too bad Kaine didn't have another 10 minutes for a complete knock-out. Well, Pence did join Trump as another pinada. Can't wait until they hit the market, I might want to buy one and whip it, whip it good.

Love the synergy of so many campaign issues coming together in the last month, plus the Trump/Pence synergy of screw-ups that so fit together

...whether Pence likes it or not. 
Love the US map, too. I live in Santa Barbara county, and in 1991 I attended a workshop on the 1990 Census as part of my job. At that time, 50% of the County's elementary schoolchildren had Hispanic surnames, according to the census. I saw California's future right there -- because even though some Latinos have been here since the very beginning, more come in every day.
Some thought the Irish would never assimilate -- now my ethnic group is just "white." Same with the Jews. America has seen big demographic changes before, so I'm kind of philosophical about my place in the scheme of things. I do have the advantage of having always lived among people who are different from me.
People in other parts of the nation who feel threatened by the demographic shift -- well, part of me does understand their unease as the world they've always known changes so much. But the rest of me thinks they all need to get out more.
He really did, well put.
Kaine interrupted his way to the truth at the vice-presidential debate.
By Joan Walsh
OP vice-presidential nominee Mike Pence checked in on aisle 4 at Longwood University Tuesday night to clean up Donald Trump’s epic mess of a candidacy. But Democrat Tim Kaine, Pence’s opponent, made Pence grapple with his own mess too. Advance media coverage treated Pence like the respected professional who was going to have to answer for Trump’s many mistakes, ignoring the fact that, to crucial female voters anyway, Pence has a lot of mistakes of his own to explain.
Moderator Elaine Quijano of CBS let Pence get away with a lot of his past, but a feisty Kaine—judged too feisty by my cable-news peers, but just feisty enough by me—didn’t make the same mistake. The high point of the debate came at the very end, when Pence tried to pinch the very Catholic Kaine for his support for a woman’s right to make her own choice on the question of abortion. Kaine wasn’t having it. “That’s something we trust American women to do,” the Irish Catholic Virginia senator said firmly. “The very last thing that government should do is punish women who make reproductive choices. Why don’t you trust women to make this choice for themselves?”
Given that Kaine’s selection by Clinton last July disappointed many feminists, it was a remarkable way to end ........... American women, however, are as threatened by Pence as by Trump. As I’ve written before: Trump likes controlling women sexually; Pence does it politically. When it comes to women’s rights, they are two patriarchs in a pod. And Pence showed it.
He also showed that he can lie as well as Trump. ........
Still trending several tweets a minute.
