The statistics and opinions compiled by Bill Wilson regarding last night's presidential debate are interesting:
And the Winner Is... by Bill Wilson
It was the polished, well-rehearsed proven liar politician against the brash, organic, unpolished, non-politician who sometimes is so passionate he can't get his facts straight.
So who won?
In style points, poise and politico-speak, Hillary Clinton was the hands-down winner.
Just ask any mainstream media analysts who babble on about birth certificates and other non-issues of this campaign trying their best to level the liar playing field that is so deeply tipped in Clinton's direction.
But interestingly enough, those voting online see things differently. At the time of this writing, Donald Trump is ahead in the CNBC online poll 65-35% with 711,327 total votes; Time, Trump is winning 53-47% with 1.37 million votes.
Online voters at Drudge, the conservative news aggregator, have Trump winning 82-18% with 444,266 votes cast.
There were many times during the first presidential debate where Trump missed opportunities to drive home Clinton's lifelong malfeasance, shady dealings and incompetency.
He said very little about exposing our nation's secrets on her private email server.
He didn't go into Benghazi at all.
He didn't set the record straight on how Clinton has enriched herself with $250,000 speaking engagements and selling influence through the Clinton Foundation.
Trump said his advisors told him to be nice.
But he did drive home the fact that Clinton is a politician that talks a good game but gets nothing good done.
Clinton did talk a good game. She was poised, "presidential," and her answers to questions were so well rehearsed that she seemed at times like she was reading them from a teleprompter.
She pressed Trump on his tax filings and essentially called him a racist by using his own comments against him.
She clearly and concisely explained the difference between her and her opponent-she is a big government socialist, believing in a global foreign policy, and taxing Americans to grow the government and provide government jobs.
She arrogantly scoffed at Trump often, especially making light of his points on law and order and foreign policy. She came across as a politician that thinks she knows better than the normal citizen.
Trump, while not scoring many points on style, was very organic in pointing out that big government and a continuation of the leadership that Clinton brings is bad for America.
Clinton scored a lot of style points as she demonstrated how polished and super-knowledgeable she is on the issues.
A couple of Bible verses to consider as you pray about this election:
Ephesians 5:6, "Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things comes the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience."
Matthew 7:15, "Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves."
Matthew 7:20, "Wherefore by their fruits you shall know them."
