Who Won the debate?

Human compassion sets us free.

Trump won the debate in the sense that it was a "personal best" performance, but I don't think one could say that he defeated Clinton. He certainly rocked her, though, and forced her to play "rope a dope" part of the time by pivoting away from tough questions.

He did make one very bad error of judgment, that was typical of Donald Trump.

Trump battles his own stubborn nature constantly. One of the CBSN commentators, Steve Chaggaris, pointed out, rightly I think, that saying that he is going to leave everyone "in suspense" as to whether he will accept the election result if he loses, is a significant strategic error, because he has turned that into the story in the press, until he clarifies the point.

That will throw any policy criticisms he has, or policy initiatives, into the background in the press. This is the "TV star" thinking about how to get "press noise" that includes his name. It trivializes the battle for the presidency. This is the kind of thing that must drive his advisers crazy.

It is also the reason, screwy priorities, why Trump should never be elected and ushered onto that Oval Office. There is no place for that kind of silliness in that job.

I think one could argue that he robbed himself of victory there, which is so typical of Trump's showing in this campaign.

Agreed. I did say Clinton's win was not as wide of a margin as usual. Trump made a better effort to act like a normal person.

He make the same mistakes over again and lost the control he had near the end.

When Trump wins the election, I am going to revive my old thread.

So far these blind studies have not been disproved.

Thread closed for review and major clean up.

This isn't the Mud Pit people.

Listen up!

This thread is NOT in the Mud Pit.

If you don't agree with it, that's fine. Get nasty and insulting about it, and you could very well find yourself on post ban......for an undetermined amount of time.

Do NOT reply to this post.

No one won. We all lost by having the debate in the first place.

Agreed but for different reasons other folks are actually running in this race, we need to hear their voices too, yes I know that they have a very small chance of winning but that's because both parties with media collusion set the rules for debate and coverage, the process not democratic at all.

I agree that Mrs. Clinton smacked Little Donny into a puddle of pulp. Little Donny didn't have a chance against her. She really is much smarter than him.

That said, I can understand why Little Donny might appeal to conservatards: He speaks forcefully and is very emotional. But if the con'tards would actually listen to what he says, they'd realise there's no substance to what he says.

Team Hillary is going to kick some ass on election day!

you seem so excited about her just curious what about her and bill accomplishments so far gives you such hope she will be a good president? ive seen you cheerleading for her in every thread when the first mushroom cloud rises will you still show the same enthusiasm?

*insert generic cryptic trying to be prophetic "there are no winnners, America is the loser" post *

clinton was her usual, boring self.
trump, as per, lied his way through using conspiracies as a base argument which, appears to be the only block supporting him, even diehard republicans hate him.

the bookies even started to payout for the election result when he started lying about abortion.
