Just imaging what they will be like. Trump has shown he will go scorched earth and hold nothing back. And the Clinton's play hardball.

You know if Hillary brings up the War on Women (although interesting argument to throw against a guy who basically has been a Democrat up until now) Trump is liable to bring up Bill and all hell will break loose.

America, F Yeah!
 
Last night was one of the ugliest debates I've ever seen.

Trump is a loose cannon, and he definitely has an issue when it comes to women. I'm really cringing thinking about how this campaign is going to go.
 
From a political perspective as a Republican I was depressed after last night's debate. Trump's asked a question and his response is to talk about poll numbers, then his d*ck and then all military personnel will follow his orders to torture because he's such a great leader.

There are definitely things I like about Rubio and I think he has a bright future but any chance he had left he lost last night. He made himself look bad.

I'm just not a Cruz guy and his style of conservatism is way too conservative to get elected nationally imo.

I thought it was Kasich's best debate last night but VP is probably his ceiling.
 
Hillary obviously has a long record of questionable or controversial actions and you know Trump will not be afraid to hit on any/all of them. Of course Trump's record is far from clean itself so she could go right back at him. But how far would she be willing to go if she claims to be the adult in the room?

Hillary has an important decision to make. Get down in the gutter w/ Trump - or try to do what Kasich did last night, and be that adult in the room?

The latter is very dangerous. I really don't think she can just let herself get hammered by Trump without fighting back in kind. But at the same time, you lose your claim to the high road by doing so, and no one does "that level" as well as Trump. Rubio is trying it right now, and it's not working.

What a crazy year it's going to be.

No she won't. But you know if a bear is chasing you it's not that you have to be fast to escape you just have to be faster than the person or people you're with? Same thing here. You bring up someone with Donald's past and Hillary can (try to) use it to neutralize her own.

The Donald is much faster on his feet.

Is anybody hitting on his many bankruptcies

I didn't either, but in reading it seems that the biggest hit was delivered by Kelly questioning him on his Trump University.
He must really hate her today! Lol

I don't see her doing that, she is too shrewd, she will focus on the issues and show him to be be the empty suit he is when it comes to policy.

They're already won. The only real value of a "debate" is to camp dems on their couches. The enthusiasm for HRC is through the floor to begin with. She'll probably resort to crying and showing pictures of grandkid.

You think she's going to sit there and take it when Trump unloads on her? I guess time will tell but I don't see it. She's going to try and fight back.

I'll be surprised if Hillary agrees to any debate that doesn't take place on THE VIEW.

She has never been in a real debate. She is going to be the deer caught in the headlights. I wouldn't put it past her to just walk off the stage. Either that or throw an ashtray at Trump.

Hillary has been in a ridiculous # of debates. She can handle herself in that setting.

She's never been in a debate on the low level that Trump resides at - but I assume that she's been watching the GOP debates. She'll be ready for it - the question is how she handles it.

I think HRC stays above the fray and tries to use her experience and knoledge of the issues to draw a sharp contrast against Trumps refusal to discuss any specifics.

It would be a mistake to try and out bully drop at his own game.
