I need to find a good internet streaming link as do not have TV.

CSPAN or the like maybe?

My interest is a little icky as perhaps too much motivated like rubber necking a train wreck.

You and 100M more they're predicting. I'm gonna watch it. And like Nordic, I doubt I can stomach it either. It will be interesting to see what kind of dystopia is taking shape. We already knew it was one. But this is gonna be psychotic.

they say the best way to predict who wins the debate is to watch it with the sound off :)

Only they can. Afterwards they'll grab a bite together before retiring to their respective coffins castles.

Certainly not saying that's proof of shit. But both of those stories came out in the last few days. :clown

(This is an actual NYTimes article. I'm not making this up.)

The face-off Monday night between Hillary Clinton and Donald J. Trump is, for good reason, among the most highly anticipated presidential debates in American history, with new polls showing the contest essentially tied.

(In a strange synch, new polls show my shoes are essentially tied, too.)

The spectacle of it alone is alluring:

one of the world’s most famous women onstage for 90 commercial-free minutes alongside one of the country’s most recognizable men, in the ultimate convergence of celebrity and politics.

But with a presidential race that once seemed to be tipping in Mrs. Clinton’s favor growing more competitive as early voting begins, the debate at Hofstra University in New York is far more than a made-for-TV moment.

National polls and swing state surveys could hardly be tighter heading into the first presidential debate.

(Are the polls tight? You betcha they are!)

Quinnipiac University declared the race “too close to call” on Monday, as its latest national poll of likely voters found Mrs. Clinton edging Mr. Trump by a margin of 47 percent to 46 percent in a head-to-head matchup.

A separate poll of likely voters from Monmouth University showed Mrs. Clinton holding a lead of four-percentage points in a four-way contest, leading by a margin of 46 percent to 44 percent. A month ago, Mrs. Clinton led by 7 points.

Polls conducted CNN/ORC in Colorado and Pennsylvania that included Gary Johnson and Jill Stein, the Libertarian and Green Party candidates, also offered little clarity. Mr. Trump holds a one percentage point advantage in Colorado, while Mrs. Clinton leads by the same margin in Pennsylvania.

In both states, voters with college degrees overwhelmingly support Mrs. Clinton. Those with less education heavily favor Mr. Trump.

Here is what else to look for as the candidates try to motivate — or reassure — supporters and win over a small group of undecided voters.

:koolaid:

I think that's what they call 'framing the debate.'

I like the way they worked Gary Johnson and Jill Stein in there. By the way, did we mention the polls are tight?

The spectacle of it alone is alluring...

Piss off. You whine about how bad things are for four years and then you vote for these fucks. You deserve each other. Won't be watching, I'm working.
