GOP POLLSTER FRANK LUNTZ: Trump is 'back in the race'
Business Insider ^ | October 10, 2016 | Pamela Engel

Republican pollster Frank Luntz said Donald Trump is back in the game after a strong performance at Sunday night's debate.

"I may have made a mistake in writing off Trump," Luntz tweeted after the second presidential debate. "After talking with voters tonight, he's back in this race."

Sunday's debate came at the tail end of the most tumultuous weekend of the Republican presidential nominee's campaign so far. Trump landed in hot water on Friday when a leaked recording showed him boasting about trying to sleep with a married woman and remarking that he could "grab" women "by the p---y" because "when you're a star they let you do it."(continued)

I think tonight Trump went into the debate with a “F it I have nothing to lose so let’s just let er rip” and it worked..its what he should have done the first debate but I think he had a lot of nerves, he’s never done this before..tonight, he had EVERYONE against him, the GOP, the media, the moderators..and he still KICKED ASS..so proud of Trump tonight!

Luntz thought, in his own mind, that Trump was losing but changed his mind after he finally listened to his own focus group. That’s rich!

That’s how you do battle.

He took on Hillary, Bill, the GOPe, the planted audience, the moderators, the media, etc, and soundly defeated them ALL.

Exactly. Trump did much better tonight with his back against the wall, than in the first debate when he may have been playing it safe.

You would think that these morons would learn by now, that Trump is here to stay, he’s not about to give up, and go away. Plus, Trump supporters are loyal, they aren’t going to get scared off by “pussy” or tax returns or anything else the Clinton/media campaign throws out there.

Trump did great tonight, but why do so many people pay so much attention to Luntz? Rhetorical question I suppose, but he treats daily politics as a gameshow when we usually vote based on our core values and who shares them the most.

I suppose he makes for entertaining “news TV”, but I don’t put much stock in him one way or another because his conclusions are based on pictures of a moment in time.

Clintoon’s bobblehead “media” toads will have to spin their asses silly to say she won this one. Clintoon and her two “moderators” got their clocks cleaned. Those two clown moderators will be taking some serious hits for not being able to save their queen tonight.

First impressions are usually correct. 100% in this case.
