    BTW, is there any topic where your initial gut response is not "Both sides do this, you know."

    Is it like a medical condition? Were you hypnotized by someone to reflexively suss out hypocrisy in the world?

    As a liberal, I'm concerned for you and would like to offer free medical care.

    Clintonian relativism. Started when you were in junior high.

    This is why they call it the toy department.

    I read it before you posted it.

    And, if Trump were leading, I could absolutely see him doing this.

    But, in the history of political campaigns, to trailing candidate has ever wanted fewer/no debates. That's a (cautious) leader's move, when looking to run out the clock. (Kind of like avoiding press conferences.)

    Now, I don't think Hillary could get away with this, but it's not unthinkable.

    During the primary campaign, she insisted she would not participate in any debates beyond those initially announced by the DNC.

    Then, when her campaign was on the verge of collapse, her campaign begged for a debate prior to the New York primary.

    Bernie's camp agreed to that, on the condition that they also hold a debate prior to the California primary.

    But, with her campaign back on track, and safely on the way to the nomination, Clinton reneged on the agreement, and didn't debate Bernie in California.

    Hillary literally did just skip out of a debate, just months ago.

    What extensive knowledge of information security do I need, but not currently have, in order to state definitively that information security should be a top national priority in the highest levels of government?

    You are intentionally stripping context out of your argument to make it seem less directed than it was.

    It's funny looking at the numbers on RCP. Clinton and Trump are super tight in so many polls, forecasts and projections.

    Except for one.

    The betting odds.

    If there is one thing you can absolutely bank on... Put good money down, with the gold sterling predictability of the rising sun--

    It's that Trump can't control himself.

    He has a DSM- level narcissistic mental disorder that will continue to manifest itself, if and until it is treated with intensive psychotherapy, probably combined with a heavy pharmalogical hand.

    And I don't see him getting any help before November, so....

    Bank on the outbursts.
