So. Does Hillary bring this up during the debate Sunday?

This was my exact question that lead to the quote I posted.

I don't think she'll have to. Donald will most likely mention it when talking about unfair treatment or something.

a moderator will bring it up (or select a town hall participant with a question about it).  clinton will bring it up independently.  this is a big deal.

I 100% think it will be brought up, however, yes it effects 50% of the voters.  Yet it's not a political issue.  Disagree with me all you want, but what policy does it directly impact?

You could say title IX but how directly does it impact it?

The biggest issue with the debates and most of the news is that it's quote and junk, that takes away from any policy talk that may be displayed.  Focus on the policy that effects ME & my family if I have one.  Don't just show crap for ratings.

people vote on many things other than policy, tbt.  this has nothing to do with policy, but it is relevant to much more than 50% of the electorate.

I agree, and this is important, but the debates in my opinion should be mostly policy based.

I think this because 24/7 the rest of the campaign has been dedicated to this kind of crap by the networks.  They have to discuss what they are actually going to do at some point. 

As an educated voter you just have to see and absorb everything when you go to the polls.

ordinarily i would at least partially agree.  but policy really is pretty irrelevant to this election.  i'd venture to guess that the majority of americans believe that one or both of the candidates are unfit to serve as president for reasons that have nothing to do with their policy positions.  when you believe that about a candidate, their assorted policy proposals aren't that relevant.

I agree 100% with that. They are both unfit to be president.  Which makes this crap show of an election even more important for the voters to know what they intend to do from a policy perspective.

A presidential candidate is on tape promoting sexual assault. Kind of a big deal.

That quote was about the same time as the other one I said earlier

pubs are running from him rather than deflecting.  he better apologize as sincerely as he is capable of asap and pray the polls early next week aren't as bad as they probably will be or his party may finally roll over on him.
