Face it: We all KNOW what's going to happen at the Debate.

Trump is going to attack Hillary for bringing up the video claiming she has no moral authority after what she said about Paula Jones and Monica Lewinsky back in the 90s. He will come off as smug and superior and claim he's grown up now and then act like Hillary is attacking him and that video was a long time ago anyway so it's unimportant.

Then he will go on the attack as planned.

Just say that she finds the tape disgusting but thinks they owe it to the American people to use the debate to talk about real issues. Then engage him on policy. The tapes are getting enough coverage as is. Forcing him to go toe to toe in a real policy discussion would probably hurt him even more than piling on about the tapes.

the Republican party is offended by your words...Not only am I offended by your words, but you bragged about sexual harassment of women at the least and sexual assault at the worst. when you bragged about grabbing a woman's crotch and crowed that you can get away with it, you showed you are not fit for the Presidency, you are fit for a jail cell.

The Right is OUTRAGED that "truth telling victims were further victimized by Hillary".

"telling it like it is", "saying what (s)he thinks", and "not being politically correct". Or wait . . . that's only for Publicans, I guess.

I like it. I think she should say a line or two about the tapes and move on. She doesn't need to harp on them. I'd rather her take the high road and use the debate to beat him on substance. If he has to engage in a real policy discussion she will wipe the floor with him even more than she did in the first debate, which was mostly about character attacks.

Doesn't matter what he says or does - he is a total asshat. Sec. Clinton should talk about how she can improve the lives of ordinary Americans. If Trump wants to act the fool - just keep handing him more rope.
