Who do you think won the
debate?
Clinton 52 (15.71%)
Obama 279 (84.29%)
nothing rattles him.
good hashing out of the issues.
key point: obama pointed out that clinton keeps saying she will "fight" for healthcare.
obama: you can't just fight. change happens when you mobilize and inspire the american people to demand healthcare.
on financing: obama's contributions average is $109
clinton said that "denouncing" wasn't as strong as "rejecting" the support of louis farrakhan, who announced his support for obama. he is know for his anti semitic views.
funny moment when obama concedes the point: "i would reject and denounce."
ends on a conciliatory note, this time with obama saying he's pleased to be running with her.
clinton returns the decent tone.
civil debate overall.
