J’Accuse Bill Clinton. Here we go. ---

AS bad as Trump is doing, he’s probably doing the best he can: remind his voters why they support him. Except now he’s playing the victim and ruining what little decent strategy he had. ---

And here’s his attack on Bill. Hillary is not amused. She doesn’t look shocked, though. ---

Hillary pointing out how Trump is off agenda. Applause for Hillary. ---

“Yes, I did say those things, and Hillary Clinton should be ashamed of herself”. WTF? ---

Now I won’t claim that I’ve NEVER said anything inappropriate about women, but I’ve never touched a woman without her consent, much less bragged about it. Trump crossed a line, whether in a locker room or otherwise. ---

“When they go low, we go high” or some such. What she didn’t say was that when her opponent goes high, she goes low. Ask Barack Obama. ---

It looks like she isn’t even going to address the accusations about Bill. Possibly the smartest way to handle it. ---

I think we can all go to bed now, Hillary has won this debate by a big margin. Trump is incoherent, rambling, disorganized. ---

> [@adaher](#): > > Don’t say you’ve been “thinking” when other people have been doing it for you. Nobody accuses her of being an intellectual lightweight. I’m sure it’s a collaborative process, and she did think of a lot of it. She’s bringing up all of the old stuff now. This should be good. ---

He’s not wrong about Blumenthal. And there’s more sleaze where that comes from surrounding her.
