    It's really just a formality now. Trump has presented the straw that broke the camels back. Rightly or wrongly he will be harshly judged for this. Hillary can just coast at this point.

    So do we move on to the senate races now?

    Anyone saying his comments constituted sexual assault should be hung with a short drop. "They let you" =/= sexual assault. It's really quite disgusting that people do not consider women intelligent enough to consent. The media has been running it non-stop, even moderators in the debates. That's what you get when 95%+ of journalism majors are leftists, there doesn't need to be any intention to mislead.

    I agree that this will trouble him with the religious right. The biggest danger is that people will stay home rather than vote, it's unlikely that the hardline religious will vote for Hillary.

    The race is not over. There are still 4 weeks until election day. Clinton is up by 5% nationally, with many important swing states like Florida and Ohio still within the margin of error. Clinton has a pretty strong lead at this point, but it's not by any means unassailable. Trump did what he needed to do at the debate, this nonsense story will die down before the election.

    The real question is: how much smut do either candidate have prepared to unleash before the third debate, and immedietly before election day? I have a feeling Wikileaks might have some serious dirt lined up, and it's not like Clinton will be short of quotes from Trump calling people names and the such. They each have their food to throw at the wall, it's just a question of what will stick.

    This is not over yet.

    Trump has a lot of ground to make up. This will hurt him bad

    We think of this the same way when the Germans sent in their last bombers.

    We have more.

    I understand that this week you will see plenty of Hillary bombs. But the week following it will be the A bombs.

    She may get knocked out so don't call the fight so early.

    You can, of course. In fact, that would be a blessing. We might even be able to have a decent conversation about the election with one less hillary shill.

    Would it help if I were to say it would be easier to have a discussion amongst undecideds without somebody who can't even start a thread with something of substance?

    Where is the discussion that can be had with what you provided? That we can stop discussing the election?

    Seems to me you might want to exercise a bit more caution since you started a thread in which there is absolutely nothing to discuss.

    Honestly, is there anything to be said though? Either someone thinks Trump is a blowhard or they think Hillary is one of the more corrupt modern day US Politicians. And most people are going to accept someone's flaws and vote them in.

    So-called undecided voters do not exist. That's a conspiracy I'm going to lay my hat on. The 'undecided' voters have decided, but are leveraging out as much time as possible.

    I agree. I estimate a 5% drop nationally, mainly concentrated in states with high levels of religiosity: Utah, the bible belt, etc. Very few of these people will go to Clinton, they just won't vote at all (or will vote third party).

    This will be reflected in the polls for the next week or two. The question remains over whether this will stick or not. There have been plenty of gaffs like this so far in the campaign, and their lifespan has been quite limited.

    I thought Trump did a relatively good job of responding to the claims in the debate (though I would have called Cooper out on it and repeated "they let you do it" again and again until he shut up). The main issue there is that few people would have actually watched the debate in full, and most will get cherry-picked snippets from the overwhelmingly left-leaning media. Go look at Huff Post's article for a demonstration:

    Yes, according to the media it HAS to be Hillary....First woman President and wife of the libbie icon Bill Clinton. A political machine 2nd to none and a history of covering up their mis-deeds. They are a POLITICAL power. The fact that Trump is where he is now is amazing considering the constant shyt-storm launched on him by the Clinton smear machine. Remember, Hillary is GOOD a smearing...Look what she did to her husband's rape accusers.

    The ONLY reason Trump is still viable is that there is a passionate movement behind him. People are weary of the same old, same old...Libbie policies that have really done nothing to significantly improve the American economy or improve the plight of middle-class working Americans.

    Do you mean the HOUSE races?

    The Democrats ALREADY have 50 Senate seats locked up. (Control with Hillary).

    Time to concentrate on the House races.

    if he is not asking permission first... and he has some accusations out there... based on this if the statute of limitations is still there, could be issues

    the fact that women try to ignore it after the fact doesn't mean they consented....

    You could be right but there are some conservative states that are undecided yet like Georgia which could now go to Hillary.

    Aren't you proud to shill for Hillary? Don't you believe she is clean and pure?

    lol, mods must love you, how is this remotely an insult. It should be an honor to shill for Hillary Clinton. Maybe they will reward you with a government contract.

    It's possible, Trump is up by 5% in Georgia currently, it seems unlikely that this issue alone will swing that state over to Clinton, but it's not out of the question. My main reason for not being so sure is that Trump's support will drop, but Clinton's won't necessarily rise. All of this is irrelevant if Clinton wins Florida anyway.

    Again, 4 weeks is an eternity leading up to an election. Nobody really knows how this will stick going forward.

    I need to be imprisoned. For my first kiss I didn't ask permission like some autistic spastic, I just leaned in and unexpectedly pashed her on the lips. Sexual assault! Lock me away!

    The main test I have for sexual assault is that it must apply to both sexes equally. If Trump was a woman hosting The Bachelor and 'she' talked about how 'her' position allowed 'her' to walk up and touch some contestant's abs without getting affirmative consent, would it constitute sexual assault? I find the idea blatantly absurd.

    Even moreso if 'she' was just talking about doing this. Even more than that if 'she' mentioned that "they let you do it".

    [hr][/hr]

    I think we're going down a very dangerous path when we hand over our sexual habits to the bureaucracy. No means no, period.

    What is really good about seeing a lefty threaten you with the power of PC muscle is that it means that your comments must have more merit than his. Basically, he is saying that he needs back up PC muscle in order to win. Even if you get silenced by force, you still won.

    Your "bout to see the biggest most pissed off group of people in history. We are not interested in 11-year-old video tapes. We want to talk about HILLARY. This is going to be the biggest most unbelievable political demonstration in history on November 8. So.... lets not move on just yet.

    Only beta males need to ask permission to grab p*ssy or to kiss a woman. When an alpha does it, they have already gotten the green light via innate communication methods that beta males can't even conceive. Since beta males can't conceive how this chemistry works, they need to have signed contracts or some kind of written permission to do what human alpha males and the rest of the animal kingdom do naturally. Lots of lefties have attempted to mimic alpha males, and it does not end well.

    Prove it, please point to a "shill thread, or evidence he works for Hillary besides that you think this thread is evidence.

    Otherwise...In my opinion you 2 are the shills.

    "A shill, also called a plant or a stooge, is a person who publicly helps or gives credibility to a person or organization without disclosing that they have a close relationship with the person or organization. Shills can carry out their operations in the areas of media, journalism, marketing, confidence games, or other business areas. A shill may also act to discredit opponents or critics of the person or organization in which they have a vested interest through character assassination or other means."

    This website is highly, reinforced on its rules...that the both of you have not been reported by him is reason enough for me to believe, nothing you type has any merit. (not that anything said is report worthy though)

    Now get back to topic, or get outta here.

    I cant check his post history but i dont think vegas giants was ever an active Hillary supporter...I dont think anyone on this bored aside from 2 people are.

    Comes down to basic choice of 3.
    Trump the Republican.
    Hillary the Democrat.
    Or the throwaway vote.

    Those 3 choices are facts, how all of us arrived on whom we choose to vote for does not make anyone a "shill".

    I agree with Vegas OP, and he may even be a republican, or voted against democrat in the past.
    I don't know the guy.

    You may go forward with the confidence that there are mods who have your back. These posts will be gone in the morning, and the two righties that you are concerned about will have their wrists slapped and a couple vengeance points on their forum rap sheets.

    There isn't anything to be said between people who are really close-minded about their candidate, be it Hillary or Trump.

    I totally disagree about undecided voters. I think there are an awful lot of them who are looking at trump and thinking that we can't possibly elect this blowhard billionaire. But then they look at Hillary and definitely can't go that route either.

    There has to be a lot of people looking at two poo sandwiches and undecided about which one to take a big bite out of. The thick healthy looking manwich shaped brown one, or the soft watery tan colored one that smells like the toilet after your grandma took a dump...

    I'm betting there are a lot of people who just can't make their mind up about that one.
