CBS News, hosting vice presidential candidates JD Vance and Tim Walz for the general election campaign’s third debate next week, says it will be up to the politicians — not the moderators — to check the facts of their opponents.

    Midwest against I have no idea what the hell Vance is.

    Ohio is also considered the Midwest.

      Eh, only really to people in Ohio and not in the Midwest.

      Or maybe that’s just my upper Midwestern heritage coming through. To us, it may as well be Pennsylvania, and nobody calls that the Midwest.

          Midwestern here.

          I think the fact that EVERY Midwesterner mutually shits on Ohio at any opportunity kiiiiinda makes a case that they’re Midwest also.

          There are other states MORE deserving of the shit-talk, but it’s not personal and visceral the way every other Midwestern state hates Ohio.

            It’s not shitting on them - Ohio is simply too far east to be in the Midwest.
