I think people betting on a Hillary collapse in the debates will be disappointed. She did debates during the primaries and handled an 1 hr long speech at the DNC. She has practiced her bit all her life and she can do recite it on autopilot. Trump is not much of a debater. He will call her names and Hillary will demagogue Trump and rope-a-dope. The Hillary people and MSM will say she won and Trump people will say he won. I just don’t think it be a game changer either way.
It seems that every time she has dared to venture out into public she’s had some sort of malfunction, from major to minor. No press conferences, 4-5 day work weeks.
You may be right, but the chances are just as good, I think, that she *screws the pooch* as badly as Cruz at the convention. Maybe they’ll have her doped like a race horse.
I wonder what the Vegas odds are on Hillary vibrating off the stage or going catatonic. I did a search but guess I need the Tony Soprano web site.
I agree that she managed the Democrat primary debates well, but there wasn’t a whole lot of pressure going up against Bernie Sanders. The questions were almost all softball, and she seemed to know them in advance.
I’m sure the same will be true of the debates with Trump. She will know the questions in advance and they will be softball for her, hard hitting for Trump. The moderators will give Trump pop-quiz style questions designed to embarrass him: leaders’ names, geography, history, specifics on the Constitution and policies. Or Megyn Kelly style questions about calling Rosie O’Donnell a pig on Twitter, and David Duke’s endorsement.
Hillary will give her canned answers and be declared the outright winner. I won’t be surprised if she pulls some kind of stunt to make it look like she is being physically or verbally threatened by Trump.
