The Vice President ial debate is in the books and a lot are looking forward to the next president ial debate sunday. Among them women voters, make up more than half the electorate and have the purr to decide the election. A cbs news poll found their single most issue and work place equality. Speaking with women voters, democrats and republicans in the battleground state of North Carolina. There is still the notion of the Glass Ceiling for sure.

This is the cbs overnight news. The Vice President ial candidates stepped out of the shadows into the spotlight for their first and only debate of this campaign season. Tim kaine and mike pence squared off in kaines home state. Both men have a history of public service. Senator kaine was virginias governor. Governor mike pence represented indiana in congress. Heading into the debate a majority of registered voters said they didnt know enough about either kaine or pence to have an opinion about them. Did the debate change that . You decide. People question the trust worthiness of Hillary Clinton. Thats because theyre paying attention. I mean the reality is when she was secretary of state, senator, come on, she, she had a Clinton Foundation accepting contributions from foreign governments. You are Donald Trumps apprentice. I think i still am on my time. Isnt this a discussion . An open discussion. Let me interrupt you and finish the Clinton Foundation accepted foreign contributions from foreign governments and foreign donors while she was secretary of state. She had a private server. I get to weigh in. Senator, to keep the pay to play. Governor pence doesnt think the world is going so well. He is going to say it is a everybodys fault. Do you . Donald trump is a businessman not a career politician. He actually built a business. Those tax returns that were, pretty tough times, 20 years ago. But like virtually every other business including the New York Times, not too long ago. He used net operating loss. We have a tax code senator that is designed to to encourage entrepreneurship. Why wont he release his tax returns . We are answering the question about the business thing. His tax returns, that showed, he went through a very difficult time but he used the tax code just the way it is supposed to be used and brilliantly. He created how do you know that . With regard to paying taxes, this whole rift about taxes, people saying he didnt pay taxes for years. Donald trump has created tens of thousand of jobs and he has paid payroll taxes, sales taxes, property taxes. The only question is that hillary question will raise tax thousands. Donald trump start this campaign. In 2014, he said if ive run for president i will absolutely release my taxes. He will. He has broken his first he stood on the stage last week. When hillary said you havent paying taxes, he said that makes me smart. Its smart not to pay for our military. Smart not to pay for veterans. Smart not to pay for teachers. I guess all of us who do pay for those things i guess we are stiepd. Senator, do you take all the deducts you are entitled to. I do. Donald trump called mexicans rapists, criminals, women, slobs, pigs, dogs, disgusting i dot of my wife and mother. He attacked an indiana born federal judge said he was unqualified to hear a federal lawsuit because his parents were mexican. He went after john mccain, a pow said he wasnt a hero because he had been captured. He said africanamericans are living in hell. He perpetrated this outrageous, bigoted lie that president obama is not a u. S. Respect laws, you cant have somebody at the top who demeans every group that he talks about. I just again, i cannot believe that governor pence will defend the insult driven campaign that donald trump has run. When she said that half of our supporters were a basket of deplorables. Its, that she said they were irredeemable. They were not america. It is extraordinary. Then she, one after another, ism on millions of americans who believe that we can have a abroad. Who believe we can get this economy moving again. Who believe we can end illegal immigration once and for all. Senator, this, this, this, insultdriven campaign. I mean, thats small potatoes compared to Hillary Clinton calling half of Donald Trumps supporters, a basket of deplorables. Hillary clinton said something on the campaign trail. Next she said she shouldnt have said half. Governor, senator kaines two minutes. Right. We are even. Immigration and custom thousands enforcement, the union for immigration and enforcement, for the first time in their history endorsed donald trump to be the next president of the United States of america. Y thats nonsense. Look. What you just heard is they have a plan for open borders. Amnesty. Thats our plan is like Ronald Reagans plan since 19 6. Comprehensive Immigration Reform on capitol hill. We all know the routine. Amnesty. One of the last things he mengs mentioned it was border security. How washington plays it. Well do this. Do that. And governor pence was against it. A nation without borders is not a nation. Donald trump is committed to governor. He trash talks the military. Military is a disaster. John mccain is no hero. Generals need to be fired. I know more than them. He wants to tear up alliances. Nato is obsolete and will work with israel if they pay big league. Third, he loves dictators. League the he loves dictators, a mount rushmore. Vladamir putin, moammar ga gadhafi, saddam hussein. And last and dangerously. Donald trump believes that the world will be safer if more nations have nuclear weapons. He said saudi arabia should get them. Japan should get them. Korea should get them. When he wa and told wait a minute. Terrorists could get those, proliferation could lead to nuclear war, heres what donald trump said. And i quote, go ahead, folks. Enjoy yourselves. I would love to hear governor pence tell me what is so enjoyable or comical about nuclear war. Governor pence . Did you work on that one a that had a lot of really creative lines in it. I will see if you can defend any of it. I can defend. I can make very clear to the american people. After traveling millions of miles as our secretary of state, after being the architect of the Foreign Policy of this administration, america is less safe today than it was the day that barack obama became president of the United States. Absolutely inarguable. We have weakened americas place in the world. Its been a combination of factors. Mostly been a lack of leadership. It is important in this moment to remember that, Hillary Clinton had a private server in information on it about drone strikes, emails from the president of the United States of america were on there, her private server was subject to being hacked by foreign powers. We could put cybersecurity first if we just the next secretary of state. The investigation concluded that not one reasonable prosecutor would take any additional steps. You dont get to decide the rights and wrongs of this. We have a Justice System that does that. Did an investigation.
