...did the moderator just totally shut Pence out on the cybersecurity question? Oh great, get ready for more conspiracy accusations.

I'd like to see Trump and Clinton in the round table format, though with a different question/answer format here.

Yeah, this is garbage.  I'm only watching for the x-box achievement.

This tweet gives you more then the debate: https://twitter.com/Nate_Cohn/status/783484069027913728


Yeah, it's kind of been a meh debate (mainly due to the bad format) and so far, the winner is inconclusive. Though Kaine could have reined in his enthusiasm a bit and done a bit better. Also, no sign of Pence's purpoted 'Biden moment'.

The table format? I really don't think it's the roundtable format itself, but it definetly could have been managed and/or set up differently.

That was so sad hearing the moderator remind him the question was about Aleppo.

Yeah, they're about as bad at derailing the question as, well, just about any internet forum thread.

Not well managed, at all.

Now we're on nukes suddenly, whatever the question origionally was.

Kaine invoked Reagan.

I'm pretty sure every democrat in a presidential and veep debate has done so for like the past 12 years.

If anyone was still watching at this point I think it would have been effective when Tim Kaine said "can you defend this?" and Pence looked awkward and changed the subject after a pause.

And then Iran, they've completely abandoned whatever the question was.....

and I think the moderator has given up? She hasn't tried to ask another question in a bit.

I'm just waiting for Elaine to yell at them to shut the fuck up and stab one of their hands into the table.

Or rather it's been a while since CNN has put a banner up saying the question. The questions get lost in the conversation quickly.

This "Pence wont defend Trump" line of attack is smart politics.  "If you are explaining you are losing" so keep saying the other guy cant explain.
