during the course of today's debate Intrade on Obama went up 61% to 65.2%

I watched this debate with much fear and trepidation. Unlike some on DU I had no doubt but that Obama had done quite poorly during the first debate. I still feel that way. In fact I'm wondering if he might just have been sick that day? I told people to who were trying desperately to make the absolutely preposterous spin that the first debate was an Obama win or even a draw that they were being delusional. I still feel that way. But this time - there is simply no doubt - he knocked it out of the park - we are back on track again.
