I think Pence won this one handedly. The interruptions super killed Kaine, I don't know what he was thinking, he was able to hold himself together when it was his actual turn to talk but his interjections made him look Trump-like and that's awful when you're supposed to be the "reasonable" ticket.

The good news is that this is the only VP debate and VP debates don't matter. And Trump's already proven he's physically incapable of staying on topic during the presidential debates so even if he's able to pull up his pants a bit during the next two Clinton should still pull ahead.

"Donald Trump is not a polished politician"

Shit, he fell for it. Good.
 
How would he push back exactly? What in his tax proposals would have prevented him from doing exactly what he did?
How? All he has to say is that NOL carryforward/carryback isn't a new concept, and that his use of it isn't necessarily that unusual. And that his tax plan says something about eliminating special interest loopholes, and then you lose that avenue.

Again, the more lasting point isn't that he used the tax-system to his advantage but that he's such a shitty businessman that he had to use the tax-code like that in the first place.

"He's not a polished politician..." is the new "Boys will be boys."

Kaine got Pence to lie about what Trump has said, Pence has failed to defend Trump, and a few times Pence just outright contradicted Trump's policies

Yep. Immediate in the moment and fool hardy perception says Pence won but Pence is providing so much campaign trail material for Dems. Nate's right.
