My thoughts On Last Night’s… Debate?

Let me start by saying, if Hillary had behaved and said the things Trump said and did last night this election would be over. There would be no spin. It would be done. Talk about double standards. Hats off to her. She did an amazing job. Yep, amazing. She kept her cool and played him like a fiddle. That was no easy task. Don't believe me? Then you should try debating an unhinged liar who constantly interrupts and interjects like a three year old who missed their nap - one who has no qualms about saying anything. How do you even prepare for that? In every other Presidential debate the candidates prepared by knowing each others policy positions and then pointed out why their policies were better. Trump has no policies.

Bill Clinton’s Speech

This started out as a comment, but morphed into a post. Last night I was asked a question on the DNC Convention post, "Was Bill Clinton's speech sexist?" No. Oh, you want more? Ok. Here are my thoughts on Bill's speech. I disagree with Maddow. It wasn't sexist, but it was a fascinating gender role reversal. Bill Clinton was the first man to give the traditional First Lady speech. The role of the First Lady speech is to share personal stories of her and the candidate's life together, to show what a good and loving parent the candidate is, to remind everyone of their spouses accomplishments, their strengths, etc.. Basically, the First Lady speech is an reminder and introduction to the candidate by the person who knows them best. Bill did just that.

Holy &#*$!
