I would kick myself if I missed it. I've followed the race so far. I might as well watch the last one.

I hate him too. I've never hated a political figure like this...and I don't like being angry every time I hear his name. But I have to watch...how can I comment properly and agree/disagree with pundits and everyone else etc...if I don't watch ?

one of the things that made me angriest is the way they're playing up the hacked emails, pretty much without reference to Trump's urging that somebody do so, and how it's basically an act of war

it's certainly dirty tricks on par with Watergate

add to that the very strong possibility that Roger Stone has a heavy hand in it, which they aren't even mentioning, and it just adds to the evidence that the media is playing the same game they did against both Gore and Kerry

and yet we see the media hardly pushing back against another cornerstone of the campaign: media bias for Hillary!

I was talking to my female friends and a good bit of us aren't watching because we felt so uncomfortable during the 2nd debate. Trump stalking Clinton made many of us very uncomfortable.

When I heard that Palin would be there, it almost made me nostalgic for when she was the incompetent, unprepared republican.

and considering how much more unhinged he has become since, I don't think I can stand to watch.

I think this one might have real entertainment value, however. I'm anticipating a train wreck. The journalists on ABC's pre-debate live stream are openly hostile to Mr. Trump. They smell blood in the water.
