Last Dem Debate Viewers: 1.5 million. Last Primary Voters: 10.3 million

[incapsulated]

One primary debate out of god knows how many now doesn't make a whole lot of difference to any candidate unless they admit to smoking pot, fall off the stage or their hair catches on fire.

Just a reality check in the middle of all the DU Spin.

1. Next debate, Hillary is going to walk on water.

At least, it'll get spun that way here.

2. 1.5 million is more than 10% of 10.3 million so it does make a difference

You can be pretty sure that people who watch the debates are going to vote in the primary.

4. Especially if they are ceoncentrated in IA and NH.

5. What matters is who is watching

How many where Iowa or New Hampshire voters? How many were undecided or just rooting for their candidate?

There have been a LOT of debates. People aren't hanging on every word of every debate any more and the media is just hoping for a headline.

So far the headline seems to be "Edwards and Obama go after Hillary" which was to be expected really. The reviews are mixed on how effective their offensive was.

I don't think it makes much difference unless it is followed up, decisively, in the next debate.
