Clinton: “A family is the child’s first school.” Great quote for the lightning round. But I’ve noticed that she’s been a bit off her game during this, the final segment of the debate — not because she’s not articulate or clear, but because she’s stopped smiling and seems tired or maybe a little exhausted by having been the focal point for the first two-thirds of the debate.
