It's clear that none of the Candidates are going anywhere soon.

Biden, Dodd and Richardson stood up and demanded to be noticed tonight. Biden stood with confidence and authority, in my opinion he gained the most tonight. Kucinich always has, and tonight showed that he can talk for the American People in a quarter of the time. The "top tier" looked like they had something to loose, and like they may not necessarily the best choice.

All in all, we should be proud of our candidates. They turned a ridiculous format and pathetic moderators into something to talk about.

1. I really like your take on it and totally agree. I think Biden, who came

off as the educated and experienced person that he is, was the big winner and hopefully will move up in numbers.

6. Biden always does well in these debates.

He's smart, experienced, and he seems to have finally learned when to talk and when to stop talking. He was impressive. He clearly knows more about foreign policy (for starters ...) than anybody else on the stage.

3. Agree! And I commend CNN for giving more time to "the others" - nt.

4. I sent Wolf an e-mail this a.m., lying through my teeth told him he was

a superior moderator to Russert, and would gain much credibility by paying more attention to the second tier. I am going to hell anyway for lying so.... I'm not saying it's because of my e-mail, but I did urge the day group to e-mail Wolfie... Who knows??

5. I agree, I missed this thread, glad to have looked further down.
