I have to say Senator Obama carried himself quite well tonight. He was very open, informative, and took the high road after Senator Clinton threw a weak left hook. I'm not sure the Xerox line brought the effect she was looking for (drew plenty of boos). For the people that were clamoring for more substance, I think it's safe to say both canidates rolled up their sleeves a bit. Health care, foreign policy, border control and immigration were all thoroughly addressed. Senator Clinton responded very passionatley when she was asked about her health care revisions. She believes universal health care can only be accomplished with a mandate.

Experience and leadership seemed to be Senator Clinton's theme when she was aksed about her readiness as President of the United States. Senator Obama took a different approach, one that seemed far more effective judging by the audience's reaction. Sound judgement and unity really hit home as a thunderous applause ensued. This was a moment where Senator Clinton had chance to show some grit. Flashing her experience card has been completely inefficacious on the campaign trail (something her advisors should have reiterated vigorously).

Even though Senator Clinton delivered a strong closing statement, I'd have to give Senator Obama the upper hand tonight (contrary to the previous debates). I don't think her ending gave her the seperation she so desperately needed.

We can change, we have hope. We hope we can change. We are the change we hope we can be. When we hope, we can change.

and so on. I once thought Kerry was an empty suit, Obama is an entire rack of empty suits.

Hope wasn't muttered a single time on Barack's half. He was very specific when it came to health care, foreign policy, Cuba, etc. Find another angle.

didn't watch it or listen to it. didn't really need to. They're both socialists who have no idea what's best for the country.

Yeah, because McQueen certainly does. His ineptness when it comes to economic matters is downright troubling.

You are most likely a speech writer for Obama. Or at least have the qualifications to be one given the inspirational words written above.

I could be very specific about my mission to walk on the sun, but my words would still remain empty rhetoric from someone with no grasp on reality.

What single event had the biggest impact (toughest problem) on you in your political career. Hillary smirked and said " I think you all know some of the issues I have had to deal with".

I didn't see that, but given your description, that sounds more like a swing and a miss than a home run.

It seemed to me she swept those problems under the rug and was a " stand by your man " woman.

Yea I would agree. She made a comment " Change you can xerox" because of Obama copied those statements. She got booed when she said it.

She has a huge problem now. Many peoples claims that she is too polarizing is now starting to show. Her only real asset is her husband and he is either loved or distrusted. He seems to be hurting more than helping at this point. Every jab she takes from now on will look desperate now. I do not like Obama but he seems to be an inspiring candidate to those undecided.

There is really a simple way to know who not to vote for.

The candidate P. Diddy is backing, you don't vote for.
The candidate all the Hollywood crazies are backing you don't vote for.
If Jessie Jackson and Al Sharpton sing the praises of a candidate you don't vote for that candidate.
