Trump v Clinton: Debate lessons from TV and film - BBC News

If I were the moderator in this first presidential debate (or any other with these two) I'd tell the candidates to shake hands and come out fighting at the bell. It really isn't a debate and no moderator can control it. They can only attempt to step in an trip up one candidate or the other to help the one they favor. (Remember Candy Crowley?) Ultimately, the loser will be the one who is sucked into playing their opponent's game and be assured, Hillary and Donald will be playing two very different games. Hillary will challenge Donald to match her in a trivia contest (which she will win if Donald falls for it). Donald will challenge Hillary to a war of broad ideas (which Donald will win because Hillary is too narrow minded to care what Americans are concerned with). I've heard it mentioned that both are fighters and plenty of punches will be thrown. If true, Hillary is in trouble. Remember, she didn't win her primary contest. It was handed to her by the chicanery of her party. Donald, on the other hand, duked it out with a very large field of very competent politicians and rose from the tail end of the slate to beat them all with record breaking numbers of votes.

I think that the Sfy Channel will be better tonight.
