I think you mean "expel gas"

xp i don't understand what she said

"Smug, composed, and not attractive" -- fuck you, Brit Hume. And what he said was a compliment.

Well that was certainly something.

Are the mics at the podium the same length or something? His was below his tie knot(and more sensitive than he knew), hers almost was over her face

'wrong'

'wrong'

'wrong'

Wow. The Clintons murder again.

Luntz:

Who won tonite's debate?
In my focus group, 6 people said Trump and 16 said Clinton. #DebateNight

Steve Schmidt on MSNBC predicting that "momentum" will shift to Clinton after tonight.

I never want to hear the word 'stamina' again

this is for sure intentional right?

cyber stamina

Can't believe I watched it all, truly a testament to my stamina

I have the stamina but not the looks

why didn't Roxette write "The Stamina"?

Let's make lots of money.

during the first half, trump seemed troublingly lucid, even though the points he was making were ultimately idiotic and he was acting like an asshole. he melted down in the last third.

Around the 2/3 mark he got into some weird word salad territory

Nice Rick & Morty sign there

if she does that twice more she runs the score up to a ... not particularly big victory but a victory

Flabergasted Patti Solis Doyle denying Trump's accusations on CNN

I thought he looked pretty terrible from the get go (and only got worse). To be fair I haven't followed him as much as I should have.

xxpost I'll take it at this point.

omigod Donald Trump is yelling at reporters

I think he realized he lsot

a lot of people being mean about la guardia but NPR is a bigger embarrassment to a once great nation

xpost maybe he'll return to Valhalla tonight

did he jump into spin alley to start screaming at journos?

kind of feel the next time the whole economic recovery being top-heavy and trump insisting tax breaks for rich people is going to fix things needs more emphasis. They're not creating jobs when receiving the majority of wealth right now, why the fuck would giving them even more change that

slash taxes & pour billions into airport cosmetic repair

if there was any justice there'd be three hundred articles speculating on Trump's health or recreational activities tomorrow but it'll just be a handful of people from our own echo chamber and nothing more.

he is probably going to fart during the next debate. on purpose.

Anderson Cooper has Patti Solis Doyle on right now ridiculing Trump's birther answer. Cooper: "I feel like Woody Allen pulling out Marshall McLuhan in Annie Hall."

Thought he was okay for a while, but I don't really know how to evaluate him anymore. Sometimes he was laughable. He really is preoccupied with Rosie O'Donnell...maybe Morey Amsterdam's name will turn up in the next one.

I didn't think she was especially good, though, so I'm glad everyone else on this thread seems to think she was--hoping I'm way off.

Trump: "I said everything I wanted to say during the debate except about the transgressions of Bill Clinton"

remember all the zings he wrote for Quayle

Man, this Trumpnista on CNN...

HRC's apparent strategy of "create as few news items as possible" is debatable and would look terrible were she to lose but it's understandable and probably low-risk

the cnn.com headline summary right now

"Trump repeats falsehoods on 'birtherism' and Iraq War support"

Man, this Trumpnista on CNN...

I know right? Gorgeous

(xposts) First exposure to the wonderment of Kayleigh McEnany

...?

XPS Is she? I'm listening to coverage on my phone.

the pundits are probably the least reliable people to listen to right now about what this debate will produce in the minds of voters. they seem to think this is some kind of semi-normal election, but it ain't. my take is neither of them helped or hurt themselves much, but if there is any noticeable trend in the polls, it will be slightly trump-negative.

'falsehoods' is beautifully calibrated

P4k has the scoop

http://pitchfork.com/news/68561-rick-rubin-attends-first-presidential-debate/

can we spin the spin or is it still being spun

just screened a call from the local hillary phone bank.. not a bad idea.

They just replayed a moment that mystified me: Trump berating Clinton about the AFL-CIO and some blue screen. "You were totally out of control"...What is he referring to?

All the CNN post-debate reaction is good-to-great for Clinton. Their focus group in Florida (supposedly independent) was 18-2 for Clinton. Their post-debate poll (41% Democrats, 26% Republicans, 33% Moby Grape fans) gave it to Clinton 62-27%. Glad there's much more enthusiasm out there for her than I thought there would be.

CNN focus group went 18 - 2 in favor of Hillary.

CNN viewer poll went 62% - 27% Hillary.

PPP poll 51 - 40 Hillary.

Drudge poll 93 - 7 Trump (lol)

xpost dammit

When Trump said the line about his temperament, I gasped like Homer did when he discovered the tv character whose name was like his name. That might've genuinely been the most insane thing I've ever heard him say.

Clinton 'won' this handily. He was even worse than I could've hoped (although he didn't melt down as completely as I'd dreamed).
