Anyone catch the Democratic debate held in South Carolina?

As an independent... I was appalled by Hilary. I thought she was all rhetoric, and no substance tonight. Obama and Edwards looked strong...

Thoughts?

I haven't watched it but my grandmother, whos damn near 90 (Think, old Black, country lady. Shes from South Carolina), says she'd rather vote a Republican into the White House than Hilary Clinton. (She supports Obama, followed by John Edwards)

She says Hilary's fake. For whatever reasons. And that her main goal is to bash Obama as subtlety or sometimes overtly as possible. And she says she's absolutely appalled at how Bill Clinton has been acting since Hilary's campaign run. She had both their pictures in our basement, needless to say, they've been taken down now.

How do people feel about Hilary's campaign? She's obviously appealing to someone, I'm almost a little afraid that the Obama train might be slowing down...

I just got back from S.C. and caught the last hour or so.

I thought it was the most lively of all the debates I've ever seen. The attacks and exchanges were very personal. It's hard to say who won, but I do think Obama did really well and Edwards helped himself too. Although I don't think it will make much of a difference for Edwards in S.C.

One thing is for sure, the contrast between Democrats and Republicans have never been sharper in my opinion.

How much longer till Edwards drops out? I'd rather his votes go towards the front runners.

I think her campaign has a great deal of support behind it, and she'll probably win the primary... she's got the votes.

I still think Obama is going to be the first black president, just not yet. I really was impressed by Edwards tonight...

His criticism of lobbyist I thought stole the show... too bad the pundits disagreed. At any rate... I'm still pulling for McCain right now.

I'll tell you what. I think a lot of conservatives(note: not "Republicans") would completely disagree. To me there isn't much difference at all. They're both full of big government know it alls ready to spend our money as fast as they can as long as they can get votes out of it.

im really surprised that Edwards isn't doing better. he was clearly on top of his game last night. as far as the comparison between the parties, its no contest. the GOP wants to stay in Iraq, the Dem's want us out. its that simple. the GOP wants health care status quo, the Dem's want universal health care. as the republicans stress changing the immigration laws. too me, its a non issue. while i think John McCain would be a viable choice for the white house, he is too old( and a career politician) i think we need change at the top.

I think Obama gets elected. No man will vote for hillary, and not even all the women will either.

McCain is a guy I really like. I'm fairly liberal with my political beliefs, but I go at it from an issue by issue basis. I still love Obama, and I think Edwards very well may come out of this as the Democratic nominee. Clinton and Obama are busy trying to kill each other, and he might come out of it looking like the good guy.

From now leading up to election night is fun to me. Seeing the race, the issues, the backtracking, etc. I really love watching the election night results come in.

You mean those lobbyist that he used as a lawer to make his millions. He also attacks the rich like he is some poor guy off the streets. I feel he is two faced and has an agenda totaly differemt than how he has lived his life.
