Waaaa! After VP Debate, GOPers Weep That Pence Isn't The Top Of The Ticket

By the time the vice presidential debate came to a close Tuesday night, many conservatives had concluded that Indiana Gov. Mike Pence (R) had a better debate performance than Donald Trump and were longing for a Republican presidential ticket with Pence at the top.

When asked if Trump could learn anything from Pence's debate performance, former Sen. Scott Brown (R-MA), a Trump supporter on hand in the post-debate spin room at Longwood University, said, "Yeah, everything."

"I thought Pence did a superior job," Brown added. "Donald Trump, as I said before, missed a lot of easy softball responses last time."

Pence would never have been the top of the ticket, because the GOP diehard, Limbaugh listening, Confederate Flag waiving base would never have voted for him in the primaries.

When Trump lowered that bar to nothing, just about anyone is going to look good next to that. Pence isn't all that. His partner helpedophilia him look good It is easy to look good if your running partner is Trump is all I'm saying....

He's pretty uninspiring - he could never lead a ticket.
But sure Republicans, run with Pence.
