1. I think Trippi & Axelrod were both still in shock from Tweety's immediate revision of the debate. It
was enough to leave any rational person breathless.

12. I solved the "tweety" problem
I watched the debate, and then turned the channel! I can't stand to watch the media after the debates anymore trying to tell the viewers what happened, and who won, when we all watched it and don't really need them to tell us anything!

3. Well perhaps if he'd been given a chance to speak it might have helped
But the conversation as per usual these days, was mostly about the "dueling duo"- Edwards was barely mentioned at all, unfortunately. Joe never had a chance to say anything except when he pushed his way in. Very unfair.

9. As usual...
Hate to say, but I'm used to it and also very sick of it. I just wonder where Edwards would be now had he not been totally ignored by the media since he started his campaign.

10. Hard to say really- if it was just Edwards and Clinton it would be Edwards-
but when we put Obama into the mix and the electricity he brings to the table as he ignites his way around the country- I'm not sure even with more coverage, whether Edwards could outshine him- regardless of whether he is more qualified or not. Obama is generating excitement from the same independents the Edwards would be attracting- but Obama really has captivated new audiences that were not paying attention before and might not be paying attention otherwise.

4. I don't think any of the three that spoke this evening for the candidates were any good.

5. It still baffles me that any candidate hires rippi to head their campaign!
I blame HIM for what happened to Dean, and remember he also headed Mondale's campaign! The guy is a looser and if Edwards wins, it's certainly going to be in spite of Trippi!
