I am relatively impartial watching this debate, but HRC looks terrible.
Especially with the SNL reference, and the "Obama called on bombing Pakistan" lie.

1. She had a right to that reference. It was being played out for all to see.
I'm glad she brought it up. It was truth.

5. A comedy show is now a reliable source?
And he has been asked tough questions at every single debate. She's triangulated her answers on everything she's ever done because she has to. That's not being "unfair" to her, it's demanding the damn TRUTH out of her (for once) and holding her accountable for her lousy-decision making.

4. HRC doesn't realize people don't watch SNL NEARLY as much as they used to...
...I'm guessing that the reference sailed over most people's heads, and just sounded petty. If this were SNL's heyday, the comment may have worked.

8. Impartial? But Obama can't even pronounce Massachusetts!
And she makes very valid points about SNL, the media has created this Obama phenomena, he's been coddled by them, because they are afraid of her actually making a differnce!

10. Hillary looks bitter and terrible and that SNL remark...
...was so nutty! This is a Presidential debate and she's referencing
jokes about Obama needing a pillow!

She looked like an idiot.

Generally, she looks desperate and bitter--and really vitriolic. Very unlikeable.

Obama is remaining cool and calm, and he's doing very well on the Iraq question.
He really stuck it to Clinton on Iraq, as he suggested that she's "enabling"
George Bush with her votes, while she criticizes him.

I was worried that hillary would come in swinging and that Obama would be
his usual cordial self. He is being cordial, but he's gone for the jugular
a few times, and he's greatly helped himself.

She's certainly not hurting him in this debate!
