(I am a back bencher in a Hillary Clinton staff meeting)

HILLARY CLINTON:

"OK, Robby, what do we have?"

ROBBY MOOK

"Joel Benenson has an update."

JOEL BENENSON

"Madam Secretary, I'm projecting an audience of 70 Million for the First Debate."

CLINTON

"70 million, that is far too high.

JOHN PODESTA

"Hillary, it's 70 million.  It's 60 million.  It's 80 million. Whatever, it massive and it's important because it's the largest gathering of independent and undecided voters we will have.  And the first 10 minutes could make or break the campaign."

CLINTON

"How many people watched Trump's first debate?"

(Everyone turned to Benenson)

BENENSON

"25 Million."

CLINTON

"And this will be three times larger?"

PODESTA

"Yes.  Because it's you and Trump.  Because it's been back for forth for three months and now it's live and in person.  And because it's on every channel - all over the air and all the cable shows - not just Fox which carried Trump's first debate, alone."

"Hillary.  The buildup will be enormous.  The start of the debate will be electric."

(Everyone turns to Clinton)

CLINTON

"Got it.  Robby what time is today's debate prep?"

MOOK

"Madam secretary, that would be 1:30."

CLINTON

"Great.  I'll see everyone there. Now I'll be having lunch with my daughter and grandkids.  Thanks all.  And Joel - I appreciate you."

BENENSON

"Madam Secretary.  You are very welcome."
