the object is to win the election, not the debate.

to the end, i believe the value rmoney can extract from the debate is fleeting.
they say he won, yippee for him, maybe he'll get a bounce in the polls but this will soon be forgotten.

obama, on the other hand, gained much in the way of ad material quoting rmoney lying.


for the most part, the debate was a big nothing.
but to the extent it matters, i think rmoney may have won the moment, but obama will win the aftermath.
