The Spin

Republican narrative

Even before this second and final debate, the polls were showing Vance in the lead. After his fierce performance last night and with Ryan proving himself to be a race-baiter, Vance only looks stronger and stronger with the election fast approaching.

Democratic narrative

Though American voters clearly sent a message of distaste for Donald Trump in 2020, Vance has kept the former president in the spotlight, which is a bad move. Ohioans are tired of this type of rhetoric and want to return to a more moderate policy — something Ryan is ready to offer.
