Number 1 Bullshit
I don't know how to explain this election to kids and grandkids down the line. People always look back at the Kennedy/Nixon debates as a major moment in Presidential election history, but this is beyond any election that I've known of or read about. I mean nothing in the modern era compares and I'm not sure Roosevelt running against former friend Taft is at this level. We're living through some country altering history.

Looks unlikely. He sent out a congratulatory tweet about Trump "winning" the debate and that he's proud to stand with him.

If Pence was/is thinking about dropping, he would still make that exact tweet, he knows he has to work with the GOP to get himself taken off the ticket, if he ever wants to run for office again at least.

Nixon was evil in 1960 but his brain didn't break into full blown tricky-dick until the 1962 "kick around nixon" speech.

A political party should have bit the bullet and lost weight (stopped pandering to/cut out all the extremists) but it didn't and kept gouging itself (tried to have it both ways, dog whistling, etc) and eventually they ended up with diabetes and lost both their legs (Trump came along and refused to 'play properly' and the extremists all stood up and cheered and pushed him to the front of the line and then right off a cliff). They refused to make themselves suffer and it just made sure they suffered a lot more when all was said and done.

Honestly I think we might be seeing the complete destruction of the GOP and a generation of democratic presidents as the inmates run the asylum and burn it down and then they have to slowly rebuild because no one with any sense trusts them any more. Hell, maybe we shouldn't be worried about Hillary: maybe we should be worried about whoever is elected in 2032 heading into the White House pulling the Stalinism card because their opposition ate themselves alive and no one stops them until it's too late.

honestly i'm just curious what it ends up looking like when it's "democrats" vs 3 or 4 "3rd party" groups, of which the gasping remnants of evangelicals make up the "republican" bloc

will the left wing vs. moderate democrats finally fracture into disparate groups now that there's nothing to push the far-left into the "moderate" category because "it's better than the right wing"? destroy the two-party system and the electoral college, have a senate/house that with 3 or more parties represented?

probably not, but it's nice to dream about

As Sam Wang said - and as much as Nate Silver likes to disparage him and talk about how volatile the race is, he (accidently?) said the same thing in his debate log tonight - the race is incredibly stable and even major things like the Trump Tape only move things a comparable small amount. Too bad for Trump it is very stable at +4 Clinton.
