Is another reminder of Hillary's lifelong way of over-preparing everything needed again?

Of course she will be prepared. She has a crackerjack research team, just like a real candidate has, and she's a very quick learner. Debating is one of the things she has enjoyed the most, ever since she joined her high school debate team, and she's been up against tougher opponents than Donald Trump many times in her past.

No. I go into an interview with the knowledge and skills that I already have. I cant prepare for questions/scenarios that may be asked, unless the interviewer tells me ahead of time what they will be asking.

Fascinating. No checking out their latest press releases or product announcements? No desire to be able to comment intelligently if any current event involving the company comes up? I guess I can see why people preparing may stick in your gullet.

He has been off message since then for a entire week talking & Tweeting about her while Hillary goes on campaigning about issues !
I'm sure Hillary has already planned another "bait" bomb for the Donald which will keep him unfocused for another week and all she has to do is keep baiting him until the clock runs out.
Who thought you could distract a 70-year old toddler ?

So Hillary admits to being a troll by "baiting" Trump and this is supposed to be an admirable attribute ?

"quick learner" huh? What decade will she finally understand how E-mail works? I learned that you cant wipe a server with "a cloth" along time ago..Hilly apparently just found about that a few months ago.

I can just see this idiotic trainwreck sitting in the oval office getting a peace accord from Russia, and she forwards it to Pizzahut.com asking for extra peperoni

Actually it is plenty of time to prepare.

See she actually gets in a rocket that blasts off and approaches the speed of light.

Her time slows way down.

It's all relative.

Of course you can prepare. If you don't know this, there must be literally dozens of "how to get a job" books that will tell you exactly how to do it. There are whole laundry lists of questions that an interviewer is likely to ask, if you have a hard time figuring it out for yourself.

Both Trump and Clinton were provided the areas that Holt wanted to focus on, and were also provided the format, including allotted speaking times. Clinton put time and effort into figuring out what Holt was likely to ask, and what Trump was likely to say. And she put time and effort into figuring out which points she most wanted to get across within the allotted times, and the most effective ways to do that. And it showed.

Now you may sneer at this process, but millions of Americans are familiar with it. I've served on a few hiring panels myself, and it's a fact that it's obvious to an interviewer who has put out the effort to prepare and who hasn't. Other qualifications being somewhat equal, we went with the person who was best prepared every time. Because, for some crazy reason, we felt that a person who bothered to prepare well for the interview was a person who would also care enough to prepare well for job assignments. This is especially true for higher level jobs that require developing long-term strategies, solving problems, dealing with emergencies and opposition, and public speaking.

Judging by general public reaction to their respective performances, it's obvious that Clinton HAS figured out what the majority of voters expect from one of these "debates" and how to best deliver what her potential employers - the voters - expect. Trump? not so much. It will be interesting to see whether he now gets it.

Trump fan in middle school: "Yeah, I got a C-, but I didn't study for the test at all so I did good. Sure, Susie got an A but she studied all week! All week! LOL!"

Also, if the system is rigged in favour of the Democrats, what explains the # of TeaParty Conservatives in Congress? What explains George W. getting elected (twice)? What explains the # of republican state governors?

LOL at Trump supporters bragging about Trump not preparing for the debates.

This is a negative for Trump. It's not something to brag about.
