What does sealing the deal even look like? Being ahead by double digits nationwide? Clinton had what seemed to be a knockout punch at the 1992 town hall, won by 5.5%. Obama also had one in 2012, won by 4%. Both candidates were leading before those debates and were leading afterwards. I think you guys are putting too much stock in this debate and also wetting yourselves because, even though he still did, Trump didn't shit the bed so badly this time around.
SPOKEN LIKE A TRUE ESTABLISHMENT MODERATOR.
Contribution:
Just like Reagan didn't need to seal the deal with Mondale and his tank shenanigans, Hillary doesn't have to do anything, the coffin is already sealed. Now it's about damage control for Republicans.
This. Hillary is more than likely going to be our next President but I think last night was crucial for increasing the odds of winning back the House. Hillary did OK but if she went all out on him it would have really helped in that regard.
I'm more concerned about if she wins and we get 4 years of gridlock or she wins and we get the House and have at least 2 years of progressive policy again. Not to mention we can save the ACA too.
I guess it's a good problem to have but god dammit if the House is within reach we have to go for it HARD. I still feel robbed after 2010.
I know new oppo is probably going to destroy Trump's candidacy for good before November, but my best case scenario for this race is Trump truly believing that he's going to win up until the race is called for Clinton. I want to hear the concession speech after that one. I wanna hear him broke.
And then I want wrong doing to surface and Trump to face consequences for it. Trump university, sexual assault, tax evasion, whatever it may be. I want him to be caught for something. Dude is sleazy as hell.

Yep and when the next nuke goes off they will all go down with him.
Why do some people want a boxing match? This is not wrestling or a soap opera, this is not a place to throw punches and hurl insults at each other. It's a presidential debate where the candidates is supposed to answer undecided voters by talking directly to them about their policies. I saw one candidate who walked around, speaking to those who asked questions, and answered with actuall substance. Then there was this angry little man standing in the corner lying and not even being able to apologise about his disgusting behavior towards women without talking about isis most of the time.
Maybe it's because Im not american and don't understand what you want in a president. But how anyone can say that trump won when the only ones he spoke to was his own base, who would follow him anyway no matter what, is beyond me.
Some of you should get your priorities straight, this is about leading a country, not hosting a tv show.

Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage
He also goes on to state Trump is running a "38% strategy" by pushing away educated, minorities, and women.
That is fantastic news for the Senate.

Trump was awful: that should go without saying but people misconstrue Clinton criticism with Trump support whenever it isn't clearly stated.
That said, Clinton gave some truly awful answers with her public/private stance answer to the Wall Street transcripts question being the worst. The nuance of the Executive as demonstrated by that movie is completely lost on the average American who pays zero attention to politics outside of reading the odd headline.

If she went all out she'd risk sinking to his level and creating the both sides are unhinged narrative.
A KO would have to be dirty and probably wouldn't land anyway

I don't know how anyone can interpret last night as anything but a disaster for Trump and the Republicans.

not seeing a lot of panic, everything is just like "wtf this is who we have to choose from?"
This. Clinton should focus on her policies, let trump KO himself.

Who cares?
Is it possible that by rallying his own base orange turd also unwillingly helped rally Clinton's base? I don't think there could have been any clearer display as to how despotic, ignorant and vile that turd of a man truly is.
I hope by the last debate Clinton has a rebuttal for every single talking point he uses and addresses in such a way that makes it clear that she is running to be president of the US. Not the dictator.

Oh many people are just fine with picking Hillary. Relitifating primaries are fantasizing about candidates is wasted energy.
Hillary won the debate it's reflected in polls and people here are still freaking out. The left truly is the worst.
Once you put on those orange colored glasses, everything he does looks god.
Trash Nate wrote a good piece on last night's debate:
The Second Debate Probably Didnt Help Trump, And He Needed Help
At this rate, there is nothing Trump can do to win the election. Short of Hillary literally dying. And then I'd still not be convinced America wouldn't vote Kaine in.

NBC was unanimous this morning that trump might have won his supporters last night (racists, bigots etc) but there was not a single person that he won over that wasnt already 100% on his side.
Feeling pretty good about the debate. With people already voting it's a downhill slope now to the finish line

That's even worse...
Oh no we'll have to elect a dedicated hard working extremely experienced woman as President...
A dedicated hard working extremely experienced woman running on the most progressive Democrat platform in history to boot.
I agree completely. Clinton clearly won with everyone except his base(and the hard right). If anything this is even better because now it puts other republicans between a rock and a hard place, they eaither disavow Trump and piss of his base or they continue to support him and get beaten dowwn by everyone else.

Obvious Trash. Things may fall, they will fall to a certain point, this is bad.
If you push a slinky down the stairs it will eventually hit the bottom of the stairs. Or stop somewhere on the stairs.
See, I can write shit analogies too.

The answer about that line being in regards to the movie Lincoln worked out as well as possible for Clinton. The people who aren't happy with it wouldn't be satisfied with anything she said. Outside of that group, all I've seen is a few fact checkers confirm that she was right. Having the wikileaks stuff not be talked about is the best outcome you're going to get.
Rasssss has Clinton...

Watching on DVR - Joe and Mika really don't do a lick of research before they sit their asses down in the chair do they?
We did see one of the attendees walk up to Hillary afterwards and say, "I'm voting for you."
