Vance, Walz Prepare for Key VP Debate

As the vice presidential debate approaches, Republican candidate JD Vance and Democratic candidate Tim Walz are intensifying their attacks on each other, with Vance questioning Walz's military service and Walz criticizing Vance's remarks on school shootings. Both candidates are under pressure to deliver strong performances, with Walz reportedly feeling nervous and participating in extensive mock debate preparations led by Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg. Vance, who aims to solidify his position as a key figure in the Republican Party, faces scrutiny from the media regarding his past controversial statements. The debate, set for Tuesday night, is expected to be a significant moment for both candidates, with implications for the presidential race between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump. Each candidate will have two minutes to respond to questions, and there will be no fact-checking by moderators, placing the responsibility on them to counter each other's claims. With high stakes and a nationwide audience, both candidates must navigate their strengths and vulnerabilities effectively.
