2. The Clinton-Obama battle is intense...
and in this day and age - right or wrong - any campaign can implode for reasons no one could anticipate at this moment.

John IS RELEVANT. Like it or not. Tonight shows it.

3. Edwards is strong in a two person race.
If either Clinton or Obama were to drop out, highly doubtful, then Edwards picks up the roll as an alternative candidate.

4. I just noticed...
So far, in every debate, Edwards has been off to the side. Hillary was in the middle last time, this time it is Obama. This is a psychological play. I don't like it.

5. Looks like Edwards has made some kind of choice here.
He's also showing off his mad skillz and earning some style points. But honestly, it would be nice if he wouldn't interrupt the other two candidates every turn.

6. It is the only way he gets a turn.
If time was equal at the end of the debate then I would agree that interuption is a bad thing. If the media would give him his fair time the race as we see it now may or may not have a different appearance.

7. Interrupt them every turn?
If you were listening by radio and walked off every now and then, you might not even know he's in the debate!

He has to FIGHT for his chance to speak - FOR US!
