Maybe a billionaire put a couple grand in their hands to attend.

Stop, you're embarrassing yourself.
You're a liar.

We're did you go to school at - a monastery? Did you hang around with monks?

I played two sports and wrestled - and heard similar talk very often.

I've heard the same kinda talk in wieght lifting gyms in California, Oregon and West Virginia.

Unless you're a monk or went to some kind of religious school you're full of chit.

What he didn't do was bring in any new voters. His base is not enough to win the election.
What will tell the tale is if he gets a 1-2% bump in the polls.

I'll bet he doesn't. He converted no one tonight. He just preached to the choir to keep them from walking out of the church.
Nailed it.

It could be there are a lot of folks sitting in the wings who are suddenly impressed by his bullying and threats.

I kind of doubt it, but we'll see.

You regularly hear men talk about assaulting women?

Good Lord, what kind of men do you hang out with?

Well, his focus group called the last debate correct and HC moved up in the polls. Tonight?

Get real. He was referring to women who allow such behavior simply because he`s a star.

The locker room catch phrase was smart and liked the way Trump wouldn't allow the moderators to push him around.

Looked like Martha Raddatz was going to explode at one point.

Nah! they love the spotlight. They've made a lifetime career claiming to be a victim of Bill Clinton. there's always some speaking fee at the local Holiday Inn every weekend if they want it. Political theatre. I've made a career setting up for people like them.

We'll see what the next round of polls show.

538 has Clinton with 81% chance tonight of getting to 270 EC votes.

Read what I wrote several times. See if it soaks in.
I wasn't responding to you. I don't think I've ever quoted you for obvious reasons.

By the way, the trial was in 1975. I wish you'd show me evidence of this.

Yes, if would be offensive if it were true. What's really offensive is that the Trump cheerleaders are complaining that a disgusting tape is 11 years old and then they can't stop talking about a 41 year old case.

Most likely the circle of friends you decided to cultivate, but honestly, that behavior went out when women started burning their bras in the 70s. There's always the clique of cretins of the John Belushi genre in every school. Most avoid them like head lice.
