Because I never see much objective debate analysis here. I just see partisan cheerleading.

1. My candidate always wins debates.
That's because my candidate is MY candidate. Your candidate never wins debates because your candidate is a tool.

10. objectively, all I'm seeing is a lot of vague generalizations and obfuscations
from both. I'm not sure if either is winning, but I guess that means neither is losing. That whole undocumented immigrant set from both candidates is about the vaguest hogwash I've heard either of them say so far.

11. I think they are both doing well
and I am an Obama supporter.

She's a smoother debater, but I think he is more than holding his own and demonstrating that he has a command of the issues.

15. I thought he was dominating the first bit
but then she busted out, punched him, and controlled the debate for the next bit. I thought he got some of it back, but she just popped open the can of worms and threw the can at him. She said a bunch of shit really fast that he didn't have the chance to respond to and he spent a while playing catchup.

16. The partisan cheerleading you speak of always starts with the Obama supporters
with threads such as "Obama is owning Hillary" and blah blah blah. Then it spreads like a plague, almost as if they're all being told to act that way by some outside source or something. Jeesh.

17. I think that Hillary had the stronger close in the debate which might tip it to her a bit.
How's that for honesty, ruggerson?
