The vice-presidential candidates in the US election faced off in a televised debate last week, each with different objectives because the presidential candidates, whom they understudy, are so different. So, after 90 minutes of folksy back-and-forth, did it really matter who won or lost?
The five weeks before the US presidential election on November 5 is filled with equal measures of peril and promise, not always shared equally by the candidates. This is especially true where one campaign has momentum while the other mostly offers grievances and conspiracy theories at fewer rallies than in 2016 or 2020.
