1. Echoes my own sentiments
Although I would have given Edwards an "A" (no minus).

5. I thought Edwards and Obama did well.
I don't think any candidate lost the debate, it was uneventful in that regard.

I have not been an Obama supporter, partly because I have been fearful of Obama's debate skills. However, today's debate changed my view. Obama did much better today in my view. His comeback on asking Hillary for advice was classic! It shows that he can think on his feet. So as a result, I am more comfortable with Obama.

I thought biden and edwards did well too.

Hillary was ok, but she failed to do anything to change the dynamics of the race, and I think she needed to do better than she did. not that she did bad, but she needed more.

It had to be a bad day for hillary nation. What with Sheehan having to resign due to the dirty tricks backfiring and all. I give her credit for taking all the bad news fairly well. And for apologizing, even though there does seem to be a pattern of someone throwing dirt..then the hillary campaign disavowing it...then more dirt...then more disavowing it....now an apology. Well, things aren't going her way, and I commend her for being able to face another day.
