As we have seen in recent debates Hillary was polished and assertive. Barak Obama had one of his better outings, mixing humor (He prepared for the debates by “taking a ride on the bumper cars”) with his appeal to Democrats looking to turn a page on the last 20 years — read “and that includes the Clintons” — of politics. Joe Biden continues to sound the warning on Iraq that if we leave the country in chaos our grandchildren will be back to fight and the region will be engulfed in chaos. Rudy Giuliani will be pleased to record there was no mention of the threat of “Islamic terrorists.” If you don’t like free trade, market based solutions to health care, drug companies or merit pay for teachers (with the exception of Obama) you heard much to make you happy.
