Was it strategy not to go for a knockout of Donald Trump, or was it just not within HRC’s reach? Winning last night’s debate without destroying Trump would be the score. Last thing Clinton camp needed was for the GOP nominee to fail so badly that the scenario of the RNC replacing him take hold. Anyway, the result is that Trump shored up right-wing Hillary haters to stay in place, landing quite a few punches on her, which is best case for Clinton. Trump stands and all she needs to do now is run out the clock.

Sunday Serendipity

Please forgive me. Sunday should be a day free from politics, but the GOP’s Faustian bargain appears to be coming due,
One of the most wonderful duets in all of opera literature, and perhaps rather appropriate. Enjoy the music, and enjoy your Sunday!

Can Trump Still Be Dumped?
Back to the GOP party rules: “the Republican National Committee is hereby authorized and empowered to fill any and all vacancies which may occur by reason of death, declination, or otherwise of the Republican candidate for President of the United States or the Republican candidate for Vice President of the United States.”
Declination? Websters: “a turning aside or swerving.” Or perhaps the GOP persuades Trump to step aside.

Trump Finished
Washington Post: Donald J. Trump was caught on tape bragging in vulgar terms about making sexual advances toward a married woman, aggressively kissing and groping other women, and boasting that “when you’re a star they let you do it.”
