And mine. I was disappointed when Trump chose Pence, but he seems to have delivered.

Exactly. Trump surrounds himself with good people. That is one of the reasons he was able to get the Republican nomination in spite of the heavy opposition.

Gee according to their talking heads Kaine the clown won the debate hands down. I wonder if they’re just shills for the Democrats?

The presshole spin isn’t going to fly this time.

Suicide watch at Clinton News Network?

Are they “making grief councilors available?”

Something that the Trump campaign should now emphasize. With her health in question, if she doesn’t make it her full term, this clown will be the next president.

The headline is misleading—29% move to vote for Trump. Does this mean that 71% move to vote for Hillary?

It's aaaaaall the way down in the third graph:

Almost 30 percent of respondents said they were more likely to vote for Trump after watching the debate, while just 18 percent said they moved toward Clinton.
