    The only ones that like the debates and political ads are the printers, TV and “news media”. It’s all about the media’s belief that they can influence peoples thinking and money. If they had to do it pro bono, you wouldn’t hear a peep.

  2. Bdpapa says:

    “Stuck with candidate” sure hits the spot. I’m stuck with Climton because of Trump.

      And, Bdpapa, I’m stuck with Mr. Trump because of Ms Hillary. Hey, go check Mr. Danney Williams (Clinton) represented by Bruce Fein and George Gates IV in a paternity challenge.

      • Bdpapa says:

        I respect that you made a choice. Like myself, we both are looking for the best candidate.

          No matter what, we going be stuck in deep s_ _t!!!

        • Bdpapa says:

          True, very true. I’m picking the one who I believe is the lesser of 2 evils.

        • kuroiwaj says:

          IRT BdPapa, Yes, without question Mr. Trump is the best candidate for President of the United States, just based on who he will nominate to the U.S. Supreme Court and Federal Courts. We must get into a position to “Make America Safe and Great Again”, period.

    I stand with my candidate.

    I indirectly knew both presidential candidates, when I lived in NY, for about 30 years. I was exposed, to both of them, when they were good & bad.

  4. noheawilli says:

    It confirmed that neither candidate would get my vote. It will not be my vote that puts either a criminal or an egomaniac into office.

  5. Boots says:

    The presidential debates just reinforced what I had already felt. The Donald is just not qualified to be president. The three debates along with that dinner last night clearly shows that the Donald does not even deserve to be dog catcher not to mention president of the United Stats. Poor republicans, they are going to be smashed.

    Learn from this republicans. Just say No to Voodoo and con men.

    Stuck with candidate, otherwise your party loses. The congressional race will determine how our country flourish or not? Insiders are entrenched in both political parties and as a consequence hardly anything gets done for the benefit of the taxpayers. Special interest group benefit whatever their agenda is.

  7. paintslinger says:

    I’m constantly amazed at our political system, awash in corrupt money, squelching and discouraging people of capacity and high resolve to even contemplate running for office, knowing full well that even should they be able to raise the millions to run, should they get elected our system of checks and balances (better known as disunity and gridlock) that we still have a substantial electorate that acquiesces to all this crap. The latest Manifestation of this absurdity between the two candidates and their paid talking heads, has hit a new low even for our nations obsession for conflict-entertainment. We have ended up in a welter of hyper back-biting and detraction with these characters unable to find any redeeming qualities in their opponents, all the while exalting themselves as the one worthy personality to go ahead and pilot this tragic political titanic. Pray for America, I am.

    Everyone who doesn’t even vote should stop grumbling already.

    Nothing has changed. Voting for Gary Johnson.
