I feel it’s my civic duty to watch this, but the ‘every man’ anecdotal straw men that are peppered in every response from both candidates make it difficult.
I wonder if you’re very sure what a strawman argument is.
:dubious:
I can’t believe she just said the campaign was relatively nice (and didn’t choke) and then continued to attack him.
Hillary = pwned
NICE TEXAS COMEBACK OBAMA!!! EVERY MAJOR NEWSPAPER IN THE STATE!
Now she looks really really pissed…
Silly Season Of Politics!!! :d Go!!
Total pwnage.
And Hillary brought it all on herself. They’re even on policy discussions. Obama only dominates when it gets to these non-issues that she introduced.
Okay, let me hop back on the Hillary Hate Train.
HILLARY HATE TRAIN!!!
I thought Hillary was doing pretty good until she dug up the Obama-plagarist-we-can’t-trust-you thing.
It’s weak, Hillary. Give it up.
“Change you can Xerox”… oof. Get the hook! She’s bombing!
You know, that could be sung to the tune of “Having a Heat Wave”.
“Hop on the hate train,
the Hillary Hate Train,
her manner is cloying
her voice is annoying
on the Hillary Hate Train!
CHOO-CHOO!”
How many times is she going to point the barrel at herself?
Hillary changed the subject, take a drive by shot at Bush for applause, and got back on the “experience” message. She knows she’s lost the “plagiarism” fight.
I think she would have apologized for it and said she regretted ever bringing it up.
So why do I keep reading that Hillary does better in debates? I’ve only seen two (and the first included Edwards and Richardson), but Obama has clearly been better than Hillary in both (though I thought purely debate-wise, Richardson won the first one I saw, in NH).
Was it just my imagination or did Hillary just mention that Bush agreed with her on the foreclosure freeze thing as if that’s proof that its a good plan?
Yes that’s what you heard.
Obama countered perfectly…what she’s not doing and I think her campaign wants her to do is clearly take the upper hand - she’s clearly not.
He is doing so extremely well. She was too, until she totally overstated the plagiarism thing. God, that was dumb. He isn’t stuttering, he seems really calm and prepared. Go Obama!
It seems poor form to bat away the question and try to go back to an earlier question… but I’ll cut her some slack because it’s an issue she obviously cares about.
