I only notice him sniffing at debates. Bet he takes something before the debate to calm is nerves. What else causes sniffing?

I've noticed it every time he pops up on my radio on my drive to or from work.

and they don't do constant sniffing like that. Back in the 80s, wait staff used to do it in tourist area restaurants, pick me ups on the top of the staff toilet tank being one of the perks of the job. However, the serious addicts didn't have the constant sniff.

I think the man is cold sober or he's had a drink or two, not enough to make him blotto, just a little Dutch courage. He pulled every domineering male trick in the book last night. Clinton was just having none of it, it only works on women under 30 and not all of them. It was all very planned and very deliberate and not erratic, at all. His most outrageous statements of the night can be tied to his frustration that his mean spirited macho tactics didn't work on a seasoned professional like Clinton.

I think he reminds most women of every controlling, abusive asshole they've ever known. Only the star struck who believe his edited "The Apprentice" character is the man himself can possibly still back him and I wonder how many of those will actually vote.

Someone here earlier suggested Pickwickian syndrome. That is generally troublesome only at night, but if he's wearing the corset I think he's wearing, it could explain the sniffing.

He has all the signs. Erratic, can't sit still, sniffles, delusions of greatness etc.

That being said its also possible he had a traumatic experience as a child and a phycological break has created his personality.

I'm not a doctor though.

What little I've heard of him in the past (Stern interview and the Access Hollywood tape) he doesn't seem to have a sniffle problem . . .and I haven't heard it mentioned about his rallies.

I don't think that he is an addict but I think that he may take some drug just for the debates, possibly something that prevents him from having a total meltdown . . .any suggestions?
