Excellent. Character issues matter as much as policy issues. (6.5%)

Good. I wanted explanations from the candidates. (4.1%)

Disappointing. The big issues were ignored for an hour. 1317 (30.3%)

Terrible. All the "he said, she said" was a waste of time. 2336 (53.8%)

Can't say. I tried to watch but it was just too annoying / boring. 117 (2.7%)

Don't know / don't care / didn't watch (2.7%)

2. Good to see that in PA at least, even Clinton supporters recognize the shittiness of the debate...

... Hopefully it's just DUer Clinton supporters who are on Hannity's side.

10. A lot of Clinton supporters want to say she's better on policy

The structure of the debate, front-loaded with so many trivial questions, didn't let her display her talents. As much as the second half was better--and better for her--most watchers were already annoyed and exhausted.

7. Ed Shultz just said 10 million people watched the debate.

I think Obama may get a big boost in the polls due to the backlash against Gibson's unprofessional conduct.
