He is a total idiot. Hillary told the world her strategy...

and he still took the bait. In her speech at the convention she had the great line about a man who can be baited by a tweet not being acceptable as president.

Now granted, the Ms. Universe thing was not a tweet, but she pretty much made his inability to resist responding to an attack a major issue is the campaign. And he proceeded to validate her prediction.

I know we have lots of folks here concerned he will come back, but I think this might be the silver bullet. And the Town Hall should be a real shitstorm. He is going to come out fuming and attacking her in the most vile ways. And the audience will react the way people do when someone they are in a room with does something vile. Just the facial expressions alone will tell the story. Hell, they may even boo him if he goes too low. Because it is easy to attack someone on the internet or in front of hundreds of rabid supporters. But do it in front a group of neutrals in a peaceful environment and the reaction will be priceless.

Have a great evening. I know I am.

She sold him rope by the yard!!

I am not the smartest man in the room so it just hit me that it took about 20 minutes for Hillary to realize that Trump really is the caricature he has been made out to be. I mean, we all thought he was, but everyone of us here had the fear that he could hold it together for 90 minutes. I am sure that was a concern for the Clinton campaign. So at first she treated it like a regular debate. When she realized that he was a nervous wreck, was spouting platitudes, and was just winging it she started making some jabs. Like talking about using daddy's money to get his start.

Once a few of them hit home she just sat back and let him show the American people who he really is. This may be the most masterful debate performance I have ever seen. Not because Hillary was on top of her game, although she surely was. But because she was on top of her opponents game.

Have a nice evening.

My night just got better

I apologize before hand if any of this is disjointed. I decided bourbon was my debate night drink.

But the bourbon gave me the moxie to watch fox news. Both channels and one of the shows was Hannity.

They are not even trying to spin this as a Trump win but explaining why the Holt/Trump's advisors/Hillary having the nerve to study facts made him look so bad.

If we supporters double down on the ground game we might make this a historical win. I will donate tomorrow and will call our Democratic Party office and see if they need help personally. I have never done that before.

I have had a little too much bourbon and am going to bed now. Have a great evening.
