Walz has experience on a debate stage pinning down an abortion opponent’s shifting positions

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Democratic vice presidential candidate Tim Walz knows how to lean into abortion rights on the debate stage. He’s done it before.

Jensen says abortion is a good issue for Walz, and he’ll be smart to bring it up when he debates GOP vice presidential candidate JD Vance on CBS on Tuesday. Jensen says Walz is a nimble debater but sometimes prone to word salad. He says Vance needs to press Walz to answer the questions put to him.
