Pretty much. CentralMass Oct 2016 #1

Nah. wisteria Oct 2016 #88

I am a Democrat and like Kaine but it seemed to me CentralMass Oct 2016 #96

Pence is more polished than Trump but he can't defend his outrageous statements brush Oct 2016 #100

Yes but t I don't think he really had to. He used his time well. CentralMass Oct 2016 #104
