Barack Obama is now saying he will limit his participation in these debates. He took a beating at the beginning of this debate, but it seems from these voters reactions he withstood the challenge and came out smelling like roses.
I watched most of the debate this morning and too was impressed with Senator Obama. I am often disappointed listening because of the lack of diversity of issues discussed, but Obama often says things many of us are feeling and that can only help him.
A fact I did not know in Iowa is the race is tightening. The latest ABC News poll has Obama at 27%, Clinton at 26% and former North Carolina senator John Edwards at 26%. What I find interesting is Iowans along with those people in New Hampshire seem to be very discerning voters. They have expected much from the candidates because of their "first in the nation" status for decades now. Though, these voters are predominantly white, regional and religious as compared to say, where I live, New Jersey. Where right now, Hillary is the runaway favorite. But, these voters are not fooled and they see a snow job coming a mile away.
