Buried in this discussion is that Hillary gave a Master Class in Debating Tonight

Not only did she come out with poise, she was able to stand strong on relevant issues. For me, her response regarding women's rights made me stand up in front of my sofa.

Her message was clear, she talked through his interruptions, and she left us with hope of moving forward.

Her performance tonight was a classically textbook performance.

2. the most memorable line about women

was when she talked about how every woman knows how it feels to be humiliated--or something to that effect. And every woman said to herself, "yes".

He called her names like "nasty women" and "criminal" and worse. She held her calm and stayed at him on his issues.

everything from the point when she won the primary through today has been the perfect example of "by the book and this is why"

she destroyed tRump tonight. absolute destruction. wreckage everywhere. cannot see any survivors. Wendy vs. Cartman real life beatdown.

this is what happens when an illiterate bully goes up against the most qualified woman in the world.

I can't believe this is only the first time I've heard Donald Trump compared to Eric Cartman.

Absolutely.

It will be that "Trump messed up" or "Trump was unprepared." Never that "Hillary Clinton smartly outmaneuvered him."

She's been handing dudes they ass for decades, but it's always "their fault."

You can expect much the same from her presidency. She won't let anyone talk bad about you. Hillary is a fighter.

which is, of course, one of Roger Ailes key propaganda strategies: to get Republican candidates to frame discussions in a toxic manner, such that if repeated (even in absolute denial) it only serves to reinforce the toxic trapping frame.

Nice job Hill!

The Republicans are always talking about shrinking government. She kept supporting her stance on abortion rights by saying, "I don't want the GOVERNMENT interfering in a woman's decision..."
