If television ratings are any indication, last night's U.S. presidential debate was a doozy!  According to overnight ratings, it ranks at or near the top of a list of all such debates ever broadcast.  

Hillary Clinton says she's feeling good and is looking forward to the next two match-ups with Donald Trump. The Democratic presidential candidate said the debate showed "clear differences" between the candidates' temperaments and qualifications for the presidency.

House Speaker Paul Ryan is praising Donald Trump's debate performance, saying he showed he can "go toe-to-toe with Hillary Clinton." Ryan said Trump "gave a unique Donald Trump response to the status quo."
