DAMN! J.D. Vance ‘just KO’d Tim Ryan’ with debate a response about abortion and illegal immigration – twitchy.com

In an Ohio Senate battle, Republican J.D. Vance and Democrat Tim Ryan squared off in a Monday night debate in what is shaping up to be a close race:
After weeks of back and forth negotiating on the time, the hosts and the venue, Ohio Senate nominees Rep. Tim Ryan and J.D. Vance faced off on Monday for their first debate. A second showdown is scheduled a week later.
Ryan and Vance, the Democratic and Republican candidates vying for retiring Republican Sen. Rob Portman’s seat, argued their case on stage hosted by Fox 8 News in Cleveland.
FiveThirtyEight’s polling average shows Ryan and Vance in a close race. The winner could determine the balance of power in the Senate, which is currently split 50-50.
How did the debate go? One clue came in the form of Vance’s response to Ryan about abortion. For other Republicans with upcoming debates, this is how it’s done:

Even the moderator was like…
There are a lot of Dem candidates who are scared to debate Republicans going around this midterm season.
Aaaaaannnd, this is why democrats are afraid to debate. They will get obliterated because their only platform is Trump is bad, and lock up political opponents. They either go this midterm or this country is lost. https://t.co/1GHkmqBis2

Katie Hobbs in Arizona who keeps coming up with excuses to avoid debating Kari Lake is another example.
