Fight score in boxing She got booed........the only one of the debate....Low blow
She tried a lot of rope a dope but didn't score any points
Had a couple of good hits but Obama went the whole round
without a hit below the belt and scored solidly

I would give the fight a 8-4 decision for Obama on rounds
A 7-5 by one judge and a 6-5 by another Judge watching at my house.

Nobody wants mandates except for Clinton and her diehard supporters on this site. There is not one person in this country demanding that they be forced into buying health insurance. Give them a plan to opt-in to, but don't force it on them.

6. Oh you're completely right. I change my mind.
People do love getting things forced upon them.

12. insurance
The problem with unmandated insurance is that the healthier people will opt out of it, leaving the less healthy people to pay more in premiums. Do you really think that citizens of all other industrialized countries (all with mandated universal health insurance) are being duped?

15. My feeling on it where Obama scored on this
was like the point he made in Detroit on MPG
you got to bring them to the table and then say
you are wrong with an open government for the people
to hear it.

11. But not statesmen like
It was one of the observations one of the judges pointed out.
He didn't go there.

8. I agreed that she scored points
As did my observers

No knockout, one blow below the belt and some major hits by both sides

Better debate than the last one, but it took it a while for the fight to come out
and start hitting each other which is what is needed.

10. I agreed it was concessionary
Her tone and script was prewritten for a ending.

That wasn't spontaneous but planned.

13. I was thinking more along the lines of "schizophrenic"
but "un-spontaneous" works for me, too.
