I waited over 24 hours to watch the first presidential debate that aired this past Monday night. Following this historic race for the White House while studying abroad has been... interesting to say the least. Luckily, I am living and studying in a country that is concerned with staying up to date on the action that is happening in the United States. On Tuesday, after trying to avoid spoilers, memes and lengthy Facebook fights, I was able to watch the debate for myself.

For those of you who didn't already know (not even sure how that is possible because I take my support of Hillz very seriously) I'm a REALLY. BIG. HILLARY. SUPPORTER. I have the bumper sticker, I repost the articles, I defend her to anyone and everyone. I didn't think I could fangirl any harder, and then she kicked a** at the debate.

There were so many classic one-liners and comebacks, but here are my top four favorites from the evening:

1. “A man who can be provoked by a tweet should not have his fingers anywhere near the nuclear codes.”

2. “As soon as he travels to 112 countries and negotiates a peace deal, a cease fire… Or even spends 11 hours testifying in front of a congressional committee, he can talk to me about stamina.”

3. “Oh Donald I know you live in your own reality, but that is not the facts…”

4. "I think Donald just criticized me for preparing for this debate. And, yes, I did. You know what else I prepared for? I prepared to be president. And I think that's a good thing."

I find it astonishing that there can be any argument concerning who won this debate. Clinton remained calm, cool and collected while firing off classic comebacks one after another, clearly flustering her already struggling opponent. If you weren't before, I sure hope Hillary Clinton's amazing performance at the debate (or my amazing political reporting) inspired you to shout #ImWithHer from the rooftops!

Be sure to tune in to the next presidential debate Sunday, October 9 and the vice-president debate Tuesday, October 4. Get informed, get voting.
