******GALLUP POLL******Clinton's Victory on the Larger Side for Modern Debates





PRINCETON, N.J. -- By 61% to 27%, Americans who tuned in to Monday night's presidential debate believe Hillary Clinton, rather than Donald Trump, did the better job. Her 34-percentage-point lead is among the more robust victories presidential candidates have earned in Gallup's post-debate polls stretching back to 1960, on par with Bill Clinton's debate wins over Bob Dole in 1996. However, as the record shows, the winner of the first debate does not necessarily win the next debate, or the election.

*Getting tired of seeing about how a win in game 1 doesn't mean wins for the rest of the series. We know that, but the statement ignores how clearly outclassed Donald is by Hillary. The press should just start admitting that objective truth so they can report on it. She's an expert on how to lead the free world toward peaceful prosperity, and he's an asshole, just yearning for power and status above what Barack Obama and his family have earned. Not a clue or clutch on what it takes to do the job, let alone well.

These are not two roughly equal teams we're dealing with here.
