First 08 Democratic Debate

Written by

The first debate between the Democratic hopefuls is over and we are left with not much from any of them. It really wasn’t their fault - the forum was only 90 minutes long and there were 8 presidential hopefuls.

Still, there were two ‘front runners’ that many analysts agree stood out above the crowd, and we happen to agree with them for a change.

Delaware Senator Joe Biden was asked directly if he could control his mouth :) and if he could avoid the plagarism that affected his run in the past.  He simply answered, “yes”.  It was received as a joke and it was funny.  Biden is one of the few Presidential hopefuls that actually has a plan for Iraq and he is well versed in foreign policy.

The other Dem to stand out from the crowd was Clinton.  She had grace and clarity, admitted her fault for authorizing the Iraq war, and spoke very well.  It’s what we expected from the Clinton team (they do have some experience).
