Moderation seems a little more fair this go-round.

Overall, I'd say this one was a draw. Hillary did a lot more reading from the podium, which made some of her responses more detailed and cogent. The Donald, as usual, just winged it. I don't think I have ever seen so much of her eyelids, as she looked down at her notes while she read.

Let's say that actually happened. If so, we might as well have just elected Jeb!

Nothing changes.

ABC reporting Latinos were crying and outraged that Trump used the word "hombres."

GMAFB!

The DNC said it was an "honest mistake", so in their tiny little minds, it's in line with what you say. It's a perfect metaphor, it's their way of life.

We've all done dumb shit in our work. It happens. Humans make mistakes. I've even done shit that my boss covered, thanks very much for him seeing a lot of credit already built. However, many people will not be in such a public eye as the bus driver.

And wow, the picture could really get a lot of mileage if Trump and Company used it effectively.

Trump's reply on the abortion question was really clumsy and you can tell that he's given the whole subject about as much thought as I've given the manufacturing process of marshmallows. Chris Wallace surprised me by actually asking real questions. Trump did great in several key areas, overall I'd give him the edge. Hillary was boring and robotic. The drug cocktail was not optimal. All in all I'd say it was worth pausing/recording the Cubs game to watch this.

His responses on abortion and the Supreme court were painful. The whole debate thing reminds me of what I thought about Jack Welch's (GE ex CEO) book when he described the shouting matches in his board room meetings.

Any of us that have worked with Type A personality bosses can see where and what he was trying to say. However, that style of conversation doesn't work well with most of the other personality types. We'd prefer to see a leader take a second, take a breath, and then answer. Trump doesn't have that at all.

I really don't like the way he goes nuclear over personal issues and then says if it's about him, then it's about all of us. The only thing I trust about him is his ability to put the right people in management.

It's a choice between crook or crazy. God help us either way.

I'd say the debate was a push. I agree the moderation was fair, for the first time this debate season. The questions were simple, yet hard hitting, to both candidates. Trump constantly missed opportunities to talk about Clinton's criminal activities, especially the stuff just coming out now. Hillary sounded robotic to you because she was reading from the podium quite a bit. I got tired of seeing her eyelids as she surreptitiously read from her notes.

Trump bobbed the question of whether he will accept the results. He should have said he will accept the results, but only after any irregularities have been investigated to his satisfaction.

I just have to hope that the polling is wrong and that Americans are so sick of corruption that they will take a chance on Trump.

Rag on me all you want, I honestly don't care.
This election reminds me so much of Reagan/Carter. People forget that on Oct. 26, 1980 the polls were showing Carter +11.

At any rate, one of the recent polls that showed Hillary +5 had an internal +36 D to R ratio. Rasmussen today has Trump +3 nationally. They had Obama +6 nationally in 2008 on this same date.

LOL no she wasn't reading, at least not much because you're not allowed to bring prepared notes to the debate. She (once again) was wearing earbuds and getting fed audio (totally against the rules, but then again she's Hillary and rules don't apply to her.) This video is queued up at 2:29:23 and you can actually hear them feed her the word "dozens" before she says it.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_c...&v=smkyorC5qwc

She lowers her head like that when she's trying to process what they are sending her. In the Wikileaks Huma even mentions that she forgot her earbuds and she needs to make a special trip to get them, this just prior to Hillary giving a speech at the UN. You may need to put on headphones or earbuds (ironic) to hear it clearly, but when you do it's unmistakable.
