The VP debate was refreshing. There were two civilized individuals presenting the classic Democratic and Republican positions. I suspect that, if these two were representative of our congress people, that they could talk to each other and reach compromises that best serve all Americans.
But those two classic positions are very frustrating. I was taken with Pence’s fiscal responsibility, with a record as governor similar to both Johnson’s and Weld’s. But his social stands….
Kaine, on the other hand has the compassionate social values I value, similar to those of Johnson and Weld, but left his state further in debt than when he found it. (Despite me getting yet another speeding ticket in Virginia!)
So if I had to choose between these two, well it would still be very frustrating. I want a balance budget and I support a woman’s right to choose.
If only there was a third party that embraced these ideas…
