Btw, shame on Wolf Blitzer on some of his comments.

24. except for the fact there's little democratic in it.
Obama did very very well.
Hillary just had to defend all the shit she's had years more to do.

12. Absolutely!
I even got tingles when they nearly hugged each other at the end. :)

And I agree with your comment about Blitzer, but that's typical CNN crap - trying to create a "firestorm" when there's barely a spark.

13. I was impressed and delighted at their newfound civility and friendliness.
Either will make a formidable opponent to their Republican adversary.

It was clear these two have buried their hatchets. Obama even stood up at the end and pulled Hillary's chair back like a gentleman so she could stand. That's a sign of repsect that's been sorely lacking until now.

14. I think they may have had a talk at some point.
We're close to the end now. Let's just see what the voters say.

16. IMO, anyone who says different is just trying to be divisive on purpose

19. They both did very well,
and even my husband, who really doesn't care for Hillary, said it was a difficult choice between the two. We were for Edwards, of course, but this is really a considerable concession from HullBoss who has previously gone so far as to say that he would "never" vote for Hillary.

22. I thought they both did great
and I don't care for Hillary either. Clinton debated health care better and Obama did very well with Iraq. I thought it was more or less a draw.

32. That's exactly how I saw it.
Hillary better on health care, Obama better on Iraq, and they were both good on the immigration issues, I thought. Stark contrast to the hateful Republicans.

23. No, thats about right.
any picking of a winner is going to be a split. I think Hillary did expectionally well start to finish. Obama was very good most of the time, with some average spots here and there. I was very happy with the debate and both candidates overall.

25. Terrific Debate...
This Debate was the best. Showed unity in our Party. No mud slinging, just discussed their stance of the important issues facing our country. Great job Obama and Hillary. Proud to vote for either one of them....OR maybe both...LOL

26. They were awesome
Sort of restored my faith in the Dem. party after Edwards dropped out. Neither one is perfect, but they both did well tonight IMO.
