First thoughts are that John Edwards and a populist agenda were missing. That being said, it is a good night to be a Democrat regardless. We should all be proud about what a civil and real debate we got tonight. In a civil debate Obama really shined tonight, not that Clinton did horribly but it was in my opinion Obama's best debate. He was especially effective on immigration while she seemed to stumble a bit. She does seem to have him a bit on healthcare. . .not in reality but he has a very hard time articulating why his plan actually works and she does.
Yes I am an Obama voter 100% and have been since he declared his candidacy, but I think most people would agree that when the attacks stop and he has time to really respond to the questions as he does in one on one debates he is quite effective. Whomever we end up with in the general election, we are most definitely going to have the upper hand in the debates.
