Some might say it isn't hard to impress people when the person you debate against is Donald Trump, but Hillary Clinton is also historically disliked by many-but she may have still found a way to impress some of her detractors during the final debate of the 2016 election season.

She appropriately used zingers when needed to try and get her opponent off-track, and managed to outline some of her policy plans in a thorough manner, something that needed to be done in order to prove to voters she has what it takes to be the President of the country. But four moments in particular stood out above the rest:

1. Her Entrance In A White Pantsuit

Hillary Clinton is known for her Pantsuits. It's a long-running joke about her. But her white pantsuit became a sensation at the third debate-and here's why. When you take her looks from all three debates and put them together, she sends a very specific message-one of unity, and perhaps, patriotism?

2. Her Comments About Roe v. Wade

The famous case which gave women a right to choose has long been a hot button issue in politics, often defended by the Left and skewered by the Right. But Clinton managed to give one of the best defenses of the court decision in recent memory:

"Because Roe v. Wade very clearly sets out that there can be regulations on abortion so long as the life and the health of the mother are taken into account. And when I voted as a senator, I did not think that that was the case. The kinds of cases that fall at the end of pregnancy are often the most heart-breaking, painful decisions for families to make. I have met with women who have toward the end of their pregnancy, get the worst news one could get that their health is in jeopardy if they continue to carry to term or that something terrible has happened or just been discovered about the pregnancy. I do not think the United States government should be stepping in and making those most personal of decisions. So, you can regulate, if you are doing so with the life and the health of the mother taken into account."

3. Her Perfect Way Of Reminding People That Donald Trump Is Lying When He Says He Didn't Support The War In Iraq

Donald Trump has repeatedly claimed that he did not support the invasion in Iraq while she did. Clinton has admitted she did at the time, but regrets the decision now, while Trump still swears he never supported it. To prove him wrong and call him out, Clinton simply told viewers, "I just want everybody to go Google it. Google 'Donald Trump Iraq.' And you will see the dozens of sources which verify that he was for the invasion of Iraq."

4. Her Closing Remarks Which Showed She Is Trying To Reach Out To Undecided Voters

When it came time to make a final appeal to the American people to vote for her, Clinton did of course extol her own virtues and give reasons why people should want her for President-but most importantly, she made sure everyone knew she was speaking to all of them, not just supporters and members of her own party:

"I would like to say to everyone watching tonight that I'm reaching out to all Americans, Democrats, Republicans and Independents, because we need everybody to help make our country what it should be."
