nah -- Kerry beat Bush big time in the first debate, Romney beat Barry big time in the first debate -- you saw how those two went -- historically, the first debate is actually the most expendable.
You're cherry picking polls though, look at them all and there is no denying who has the momentum. Why'd you take out the Bloomberg poll and others showing trump ahead? Keep in mind these are liberal outlets putting this stuff out.

I'm not cherry picking polls. I'm picking the polls that have been released just now. The CNN and Bloomberg polls were released early this morning.
This is not a typical election or debate. When has a presidential debate had this much hype? A lot is riding on this.
80-100 people will watch. That's going up against an NFL game. That says a lot.
Which is current, stop being a sarcastic dunce
Then why are you crying about cherry picking?
New polls are new polls. Realclear hasn't even updated their overall averages. Expect Florida to be at tie. With the new Florida poll which has her up 3 and Trump leading the state by 0.2 that will now be erase to just a tie if not Hillary leaning.
One thing I can agree with you on and also the reason I think it's stupid to focus so much on polls. As long as the average of polls show it as a somewhat of a close race then it's all about turnout and we won't know that until Nov 8th.
I've always thought this election was Hillary's to lose. I didn't think she would be so good at trying to lose it.
Florida is trumps ask your boy shillver
I think her biggest problem is she is relying too much on Obama's popularity. He can campaign and stump for her in all the states he won sure, but at the end of the day Hillary needs to be the one out there showcasing her face. It's only but so much he can do. From what I can see this time around the enthusiasm for Hillary just not there it was for Obama. I worried about that in the Primaries that Bernie would have probably been more of a slam dunk than Hillary.
A state with over 20% of hispanics?
It's a question of if they turn out. They already heavily favored her as it is.
Shillver gives trump favorable odds to win. "Hispanics" as a monolithic group don't exist, those are Cubans and they hate Mexicans
What did I tell your dumbass?

Ain't happening
OP is right about the Cubans being different and more conservative and hating of communism/socialism/food stamps than Mexicans and most Central Americans. But they're also going to be pissed off about how Trump treated their idol Rubio.
Millennial voter turnout would have tripled records (at least) had Bernie won. I'd consider voting for him because at least he's honest and apolitical.
The majority of NFL watchers will be Trump, but I plan on going back and forth between the game and debate tonight.
how many rightwingnut out-of-date-Castro-hating Cubans are there? vs 10Ms of Latinos/Hispanics trashed by Trash?
The huge number of younger Cubans are more Americanized and aren't a close-minded as their old parents.
I think they're right wing for sure, but not necessarily pro-Trump... Trump called their hero "Little Marco" and other dirty things... Trump is a racist...
Meh. The 2nd amendment isn't going anywhere.
If background checks are the "death" of the second amendment, I'll eat my hat. What a bunch of hype.
The laboratory for Trumps tax proposals is Kansas, and has pretty thoroughly debunked sharp tax cuts and trickle down economics as a serious policy.

Further, for someone who says he knows about money, he spouted off some decidedly ignorant things about it.

In fact, over the past two years, Beijing has been selling off some of its roughly $4 trillion in foreign exchange reserves to prop up the value of its currency, the Renminbi or Yuan. This has contributed to a lower U.S. trade deficit with China. Beijing allowed the RMB to appreciate against the dollar for about a decade until 2014, leading the IMF to judge the RMB as fairly valued in May of last year. -- Anthony Kuhn, International Correspondent
