The thought of Shilling running for Senate is a laugh. I have an extreme dislike for Liz Warren but the mere thought of him as an alternative is unthinkable. I equate it to a smaller scale Trump vs. Hillary choice but I trust MA is smart enough to laugh him off. Even Scott Brown couldn't beat her, thankfully.

Lots of good statewide polls for Clinton on Tuesday.
A little nervous that she's only up by 5 in CO with Johnson polling strong.
Good numbers for her in NV though.

A Poll this morning shows Clinton at +5 in Arizona. Arizona!

Plus a Bloomberg poll puts her up 9 points nationally.

Will we hear a tremendous death rattle from the Trump candidacy tonight?

Myself, I need some alcohol in order to absorb the punishment tonight, going with 2012 Felsina Berardenga Chianti Classico Reserva….

Yes it is real alright, Jonathan.
And we even have a moderator tonight who can get nasty.
Fun.

If I'm not mistaken they are going to be sitting tonight, which should help Hillary.

Everyone keeps talking about Trump's free falling campaign but all I see are polls that have him up in FL, OH, even in OH, NV, down only 4 in PA, etc., etc., with still three weeks to go.

Yes. I believe that Jonathan.
That is a big part of the problem.
The Trump phenomenon has very little to do with voter "ignorance."

Well, Hound, as you know, I like 'em young.
This is a nice wine, I'm trying to remember what I paid for it.
I'm drinking it slowly, trying to get just a little bit of a jag before the "debate," you know, like when they put you halfway under for a colonoscopy.

Just watched Mike Pence on this whole rigged election thing.

I would rather see Trump as president than Pence.

First question on Supreme Court.
Hillary gives strong answer.
Donald goes after Ginsberg, 2nd amendment.
He's calm.

This debate is all about Donald.
Is he as crazy as he seems?

Ginsberg is a red herring, but the rest of his answer shows good programing. HRC needs to go on the attack to get The Donald to blow up.

Trump starting to get wound up at 9:20 on immigration.
No big points scored either way in first 20 minutes, which is of course good for the person ahead.

The 2010 Momtazi has a seductive nose, but lacks the structure and fruit of the 2009. So far it is the 2009 by a lot.

Wow! The bouquet on the 2010 keeps getting better. If you could combine its nose with the structure of the 2009 you would have a PN that would match top level Grand Cru Burgundies.

The debate not he other hand, is not exciting.

Round Two:
Immigration:
Donald's face getting red.
Now he's interrupting the moderator.
She's smacking him around on this issue.
Round Two on Immigration goes to Hillary.

I think Mike Wallace is on Hawaii time, Hound, he said it was 3pm when the debate started.
He's doing a solid job so far, a half hour in.

The debate so far is not exciting, Stefan. Question is, is that good for Donald or Hillary?
