University of Nevada POTUS debate at 9pm ET **live commentary thread**

An interesting suggestion for a Trump Hail Mary tonight, at the debate, from the NY Post:

Here is a key passage:

"...Here’s why humility must be central to his game plan.

First, it would be a surprise. Ready to rumble at the drop of an insult, Trump could benefit from a change of tone. ......some who remain undecided or say they will vote for a minor-party candidate, have been waiting for Trump to win them over by acting more consistently presidential, but are losing confidence that he can be anything other than a brawler and insult machine. Trump’s challenge is to earn a second look from them......He must show them that he understands their doubts and is ready for the awesome responsibility that comes with the Oval Office. He needs to win their confidence before he can win their votes....Call it a test of character or temperament or fitness. I call it heart, and Trump must finally reveal his...."

We'll see if he does (try) to take this advice.

This debate will not have the viewership to successfully perform a Hail Mary.

I don't think Clinton wants Trump completely out of the woods yet -  and I suspect this debate leads to Trump's first ever draw, giving Trump hope before another oppo dump occurs.

Why not?

You still want supporters to actually go and vote.

Damn, this is a serious debate.

Hillary is doing fantastic.

Dear lord, shes killing it.

[Fusionmunster]

Hillary must have a big house if she took thousands of refugees in.

[Fusionmunster]

Trump does not understand the question.

I just gasped.
