"I've been studying to be President"

More like "I've been calculating to be President"

“Holt’s bias became far more obvious in the last 20 minutes.”

That’s for sure.

I think it comes down to this. Hillary responded to all the questions like a rehearsed politician and Trump sounded like one of us out there in America who isn’t a politician. I think the American people are preferring the non-politician. Frankly, I think he did well tonight, not great, but well enough that I don’t think the polls will move all that much. Then again, the MSM spin will be she won overwhelmingly tonight. Let’s get used to it folks. It will be a roller coaster ride all the way to November 8th. I will agree with a lot of you that Trump left some hanging curveballs on Hillary out there without nailing them, but I’m sure that his kids, especially Ivanka, are gonna tell him he left opportunities on the floor, and that won’t happen in the next two debates.

"I can’t believe I was excited about this."

I made the right choice in skipping the debate to watch the new season of Longmire on Netflix. After scanning the comments on this thread, I've come to the conclusion that there was more back-biting, name calling, and muck-throwing between Freepers than between the candidates.

It was in New Jersey though.

Not exactly what I’d call downtown Conservative central.

Now Hillary sycophant Dana Perino is fluffing up Clinton and criticizing Trump. Who’d thunk it?

By definition, not the `low info’

Low info isn't No info. The debates are where low info people come to make up their mind.

I anticipated Hillary doing fairly well. This was much worse than I imagined. I wanted to see the Trump from his rallies. I wanted him to look into the camera and shrug and say “I can’t believe you are here debating me when X, Y, and Z are serving time behind bars for less than you allegedly did....”

I can’t believe he fell for having to defend himself on all the points her earpiece told her to slam him with.

SHE IS A TRAITOROUS CRIMINAL. SHE DEFENDED A CHILD RAPIST AND LAUGHED. MANY HAVE BEEN MURDERED WHO STOOD IN HER WAY. SHE KILLED AND LIED IN BENGHAZI.

She had a very good night considering. I am disgusted.

PBS calling it Hillary.

Shocking..

I admit Trump could have done better by just giving her rope

I’m surprised that Holt didn’t collect 10% or so from casual viewers. He made almost as many political statements as the candidates!

I think the question was if she became President would he support her..I wonder did Lester Holt ask HER the same question, if she would support HIM if he became President
