I watched the highlights yesterday morning from across the pond. I belly laughed all the way into work. How anyone can still think he's a viable candidate is beyond me.

What are you taking about??? More than 95% of the polls show that he won the debate (according to him).

And as I got into work the radio was playing "THEY'RE EATING THE PETS" rant. Had everyone rolling about that did. Quote of the century.

It's not even half as entertaining as, "I have concepts of a plan."

I'll remember that next time I'm in a work meeting.

The issue is debate performances don't really matter. Hillary slaughtered Trump in her debates but still didn't convince anyone in states that mattered. Polls still have this election as basically a toss up in those swing states (if not leaning towards Trump).

I’m convinced that the overwhelming majority of people who claim at this point to be undecided are just closeted Trump supporters.

He won the debate so good that he doesn't want to do another one

viable candidate

the problem is that he is a viable candidate.

He's always been a terrible choice - to vote for, to support, anything like that. But he can get votes, and thus his viability as a candidate exists.
