Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump and Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton speak during the second presidential debate at Washington University in St. Louis Oct. 9. In the below op-ed, Melissa Stacho writes that Clinton's upright body language and straightforward way of answering questions bests Trump's sideways glances and smirks.

Oklahoma GOP Rep. Tom Cole, who is supporting Donald Trump for president, said Tuesday he doesn't agree with the Republican nominee that the election is "rigged." After noting he agrees with Trump that "the media" has been unfair and that "the elites" have mobilized against him, Cole said: "If you're talking about the actual election process, no, I don't agree ... It doesn't occur on a scale vast enough to change the outcome of a presidential election."

The issue of sexual harassment burst onto the national scene 25 years ago, exploding in the male dominion of Congress, in the shadow of that macho symbol, the Washington Monument. Such vulgarities and sexually explicit language had never been heard before in the political arena.

To hear the many howls of protest from conservatives, you'd think a handful of emails released by WikiLeaks demonstrates Hillary Clinton's campaign is a nest of anti-Catholics. Fortunately for her, the emails, which are 4 to 5 years old, tell a far more interesting tale about the struggles inside the Catholic Church in the period before the ascendancy of Pope Francis.
'Is the Fed's next decision on rates all about politics?' That's the way the question is put in a headline in USAToday. It reports that when the governors of the Fed meet next month , the question of what they're going to do about interest rates will be 'clouded by the fog of presidential politics.'

The August primary already is having a positive impact: The Legislature is expected to hold hearings and vote next session on Medicaid expansion - and it could pass.
