Yes, she did better than Trump at this, but her mind was still too focussed on him.
Hillary was able to manage Trump while answering questions, and her composure. Trump on the other hand did the best he could do. The best any republican can muster.

The quote was about raising your children, not about your plumbing. While society has an influence on how children grow up, it takes two dedicated and loving parents to raise a child, not a village. Divorce and or not being married is not an excuse for not to be a good parent and not being there for your child.

The only thing that Sniffles proved last night was that the mic at the last debate was most definitely not broken!

It's all interconnected. We are all dependent on each other. It's mind numbing how anyone cannot grasp this. People want a successful, thriving society that will provide them with their technology, their medications, their security, but don't think they have to contribute to it as a society. It's irrational.

He's a libertarian. I don't know why people keep missing this point. Libertarians are not some midway point between Rs and Ds - if they were, they'd be happy being either conservative Ds or liberal Rs. Like true Marxists, they ideally want the state to wither away, and that includes border control.

Do libertarians love this country? I'm sure they do. But they are not nationalistic flag-wavers.

It was a clear, blatant WIN for Trump, he mopped the floor with her

You should be ashamed of yourself
You will go to jail
Etc...

Priceless!

Clinton reply: Silly, embarrassed grins!

I think Hillary is finished!

That people can vote that Hillary won is beyond my comprehension.

'I think the "booze" is talking with those people, delusional.

TRUMP 2016.

The way I look at it, it doesn't matter what Hillary says, remember that she will only be giving her "public opinion" not the "private opinion" that she and her huge donors have regarding the direction THEY want to take OUR country in.

No wonder she wears such a hefty diaper, she is so full of "it" that has to drip out! Boy, Bill looked like "death warmed over". And, Hillary and the constant "peeved" look on her crooked face.

Glad to see Trump bring it altogether.

I didn't care for either moderator.

Colbert is absolutely the worst of the lot. Besides being the worst liberal weenie of late-night TV, he isn't in the least bit funny or entertaining.

All of these TV talk show hosts think their opinions are much more important than they are.

As with the first debate, interruptions by both moderators were twice as frequent with Trump than Hillary. At least they could admit bias and feign helplessness.

The fact that CNN said Hillary won the second debate when over 90% of the American public agrees that Trump won hands down demonstrates that CNN can't be neutral.

He only did it with his heart. A better man then either Donald or Bill.
(But Bill is not the one running today)

" I try not to commit a deliberate sin. I recognize that I'm going to do it anyhow, because I'm human and I'm tempted. And Christ set some almost impossible standards for us. Christ said, 'I tell you that anyone who looks on a woman with lust has in his heart already committed adultery. I've looked on a lot of women with lust. I've committed adultery in my heart many times. This is something that God recognizes I will do--and I have done it--and God forgives me for it."
