Poll question: Who won the debate?
At the risk of making this a push poll, I will say I was very impressed and proud of both of them. However, I did feel Obama made a very strong case for unifying the party and expanding the base with his message. I think he's right that he is the best candidate against McCain because he opposed the war from the start and will present a clear difference in the Fall. We need those independent voters, especially against McCain. I also agree with Obama more on healthcare and immigration issues, although the real difference between them are slight.

That said, I think Hillary did a marvelous job as well presenting her case in a clear and eloquent manner. I'm so proud to be a Democrat tonight at this historic time in our Party's and our Nation's history.

2. I think they both did well.
But I think Obama came out on top because of her Iraq War vote.

3. imo they're both very impressive candidates...
It actually hurts to say this because I would so love to see a woman in the WH ~ but I still think Obama is the one who can beat McCain, for the reasons you gave, and I believe he will be a transformational president.

6. We've heard that in the elections since 2000 yet there has
not been change. The Dems vote with the President enough that he get even our private information for his own political gain.

5. Why isn't there a "neither choice" since we are not being
reprented or our issue discussed?
