IS that many in the MEDIA want a horse race and to get that, they'll subtly continue bringing Hillary down enough via negative things they say about her (Melber tonight), while on the other hand say things like "Oh wow, tRump stayed 50% on message. No major gaffes, because he was 50% on message and not a total snarling pig towards Clinton." In other words, set the bar lower than they did for Dubya only because he doesn't blow up @ Hillary during the 1st debate. Thus declaring HIM the winner. Then continue trying to change the narrative in subsequent days by making comments like "Hummm, Hillary seemed pretty agitated when tRump made that Monica Lewinsky comment and for someone whose an alleged skilled debtor, he rattled her pretty badly with that comment."

I HOPE I'm wrong, but I "think" I see a subtle change in some of the media who are trying to get tRump back into the race by singing the more positive narrative THEY wish he had while like I said, trying to bring Hillary down to HIS level subtly.
