I watched tonights debate and some of the commentary afterwards. Everyone is saying that the audience gave Hillary a standing ovation at the end. The headline on CNN said, "Clinton sparks standing ovation" The standing ovation WAS NOT for Hillary. Her final answer was very poignant and touching, somewhat better than Obama's answer to the question, but lets not give more credit than what is due. The audience stood up and clapped because that was the last question of the night. They were clapping for both canidates. Look at the video, even Obama wanted to get up because the debate was over but was told to wait a moment. Now I'll get to hear about "Hillary's Homerun" for the next week before our Texas primary and I just want to vomit.

I know you mean that as in, "who gives a crap" but as tight as the race is anything could swing the votes and I'd really hate to see that happen on an important debate like this where someone is said to have won the debate because the media wasn't paying attention to what really happened.

That wont make a difference. Keep in mind that it ended on a concilatory note after Clinton equated Obama's campaign to a Kinko's. I highly doubt serious journalists are going to characterize this as a win for her based on that alone.

Ted Kennedy held a rally at my school in San Antonio...I about threw up from being in that close proximity to the man >_<

Ahh well, my vote's goin to McCain anyway.

The fact was she was booed a lot.

The Xerox comment did not help her cause. The only problem with the Clinton campaign is that any time they bring up dirt on Obama, he spins it in his favor. He admits accusations (Pot, the speech), which is attracting more and more people and destroying Clinton's position.

Sidenote: Admin were you at the debate or did you watch it?

Always tell the truth in politics. It gives you the advantage of surprise.

She is a troll



But back on topic, she frightens me, I don't know why, ever since her name came up in the president races.

She has a money problem as it is, so I highly doubt that.

Assuming she wasn't given the line by one of her staffers, which would be delicious irony.

[Flame Darkfire]

Well what do you expect of the drive by media?

[Meso Commonwealth]

Be nice if they had real news.

Like the headline:

"Hillary Flashes, Man Goes Blind"

[Warfunn]

I am sure if Obama answered last, the headlines would read "Obama sparks a killer homerun in speech!"

It happens in politics, I am sure Hillary wanted to make sure it was her name and not his. I hate her policies anyway, I really hope she keeps losing.
