1. Hehe! If there's one thing you can't say about Hillary, it's that she lacks confidence.
She sure knows how to shout!

3. News flash: candidate supporters usually think their candidates won.
It's not just Hillary supporters.

8. No clear winner tonight. imo
Each had a few good moments, of course Edwards was not attacked, so he looked pretty good. I do think Hillary had a some strong arguments on Universal Healthcare, she also sounded good picking up after Obama on civil rights.

To be honest though, there were so many attacks and defenses that it would be difficult in my opinion for the audience of less informed folks to separate it out. If Hillary's goal was to show Obama as weaker on the defense then she may have scored a few points there. Obama was given plenty of time to defend himself and that muddied up the game plan a little.

Hillary, she was a strong performer as usual, but I am not sure how much of that got through the noise. Obama did pretty well too, but I still think he is the weaker debator of the three.
