Isn't there supposed to be a Democratic debate tomorrow? (8/19/07)

Here is some reaction I found:

Politico's Roger Simon thought Obama won an otherwise dull debate:

The realclearpolitics blog doesn't really think there was a winner but seems to point to Richardson and Biden as gaining the most from the debate:

I was watching Fox News and they had a dial expert guy on who said that in his test group, Obama won, and Clinton's responses were recieved quite unenthusiastically, especially among liberals. But the group was only comprised of like 25 people, so I'm sure she's not loseing sleep over it.

Biden breaking out of the pack in Iowa? How so? It seems like Richardson is the one breaking into the top tier.

The one "going" to break out..... the surprise....

Biden at least isn't at zero like Dodd, who despite his fundraising (or transferring), looks increasingly like Bob Graham.

She always seems to do poorly in the focus group testing. I guess it's because the people watching the debates get to pay attention without listening to much of the pro Clinton MSM spin afterwards.

Here is the Luntz focus group. Obama won in a landslide according to them. I wonder if he will at least get a bump in Iowa from this debate.

wasn't luntz banished by NBC due to pressure from liberal groups due to his previous work with Republican candidates? Err rather, that he did so while also doing non-partisan work, and not notifying the public. And thus getting censured by some polling board?
