For Trump, the debate is his last opportunity to turn around a race that appears to be slipping away from him.
Clinton takes the stage facing challenges of her own. While the electoral map currently leans in her favor, the Democrat is facing a new round of questions about her authenticity and trustworthiness, concerns that have trailed her throughout the campaign. The hacking of her top campaign adviser's emails revealed a candidate that is averse to apologizing, can strike a different tone in private than in public, and makes some decisions only after painstaking political deliberations.
The last in a trio of presidential debates, Wednesday's contest in Las Vegas comes just under three weeks from Election Day.
Trump has leaned on an increasingly brazen strategy in the campaign's closing weeks, including peddling charges that the election will be rigged, despite no evidence of widespread voter fraud in U.S. presidential contests. Yet his running mate, Mike Pence, has insisted they'll accept the election results.
On Wednesday, Trump campaign manager Kellyanne Conway, seemed to undercut Trump's argument by saying she didn't believe there was widespread voter fraud.
"Absent overwhelming evidence that there is, it would not be for me to say that there is," Conway told MSNBC.
Trump has also charged that Clinton attacked and intimidated women involved with her husband's affairs, bringing three women who accused former President Bill Clinton of unwanted sexual contact and even rape to sit in the audience for the second debate. The former president has never been charged with crimes related to the encounters, though he did settle a sexual harassment lawsuit.
Clinton spokesman Brian Fallon said the Democratic nominee "will be ready for whatever scorched-earth tactics (Trump) tries"

Donald Trump should have a drug test in his pocket. Clinton is likely to pull out a fake one and say “Where’s yours, Donald?” scoring a big propaganda point.
Ugly race?
I don’t find it ugly at all. What I find ugly is the GOP candidate invariably going after the GOP contenders like schoolyard girls fight then handing the presidency to the democrat
The only thing ugly in this race is the abortion princess and her government and media flying monkeys, the FBI and all but Sean Hannity and michael Savage and a couple of the women pundits, the smart ones.
Did I say princess? Ok I guess that works meant to say priestess
Isn't that a clever way to spin somebody who admits that they need to have a public position different from the private position. Or in other words to lie to the public about what she really plans and believes.
I think the main thing they teach in journalism school now is how to write lies.
i think Julie at the Admin Press is a John Podesta Diner guest !!
its a trump trash piece cooked up over dessert at the Podesta diner !!
This from the “News Media” who, from the 1st GOP debate, started this desperate race for the bottom? Look in the mirror hypocrites. YOU started this with the 1st question at the 1st debate.
Hillary loses on the issues so the Clinton campaign, with the gleeful cooperation of corrupt “News” media, made a conscious effort last year to make this the slimiest election ever.
Hillary only wins if she can scare enough people to vote against Trump. Virtually no one is voting FOR her.
Finally, there is a candidate who isn't afraid to expose the mess for what it is.
There comes a time when someone has to step up and do that. Right now that someone is Trump.
The reason he is facing so much opposition is an awful lot of people have a lot to lose. From both sides of the political spectrum.
When this is all done one will be able to look back and see that Clinton should have run. Because her running has exposed the Clinton Foundation for what it is, a money laundering machine. If she hadn't run it might have never been brought into the limelight.
For today’s MSM, “ugly” means “Trump is winning”.
Filth is what they know. Filth is where they dwell. Filth is what they do. Filth is what they are.
