12. Wasn't it? I loved it as well!

From my perspective, this is what I saw; Hillary did a great job of being presidential, though she frequently kept talking excessively and failed to get to the point of her answer. O'Malley came across as a bit stiff and unnatural, I thought. I cant tell if he's been over-coached, or maybe under coached.. but I don't think it he was his true self on that stage except for a few great moments. Bernie, I thought, stole the show. He immediately awed the crowd with his forthright answers. He didn't take an hour to answer their questions, and his empathy was very genuine. Also, his sense of humor was great!

So, in terms of who did well, Bernie did the best, though Hillary made a very good showing, O'Malley had a kind of rough night.

The biggest loser, though, were the posters to the chat window. People who rampantly posting all kinds of unsubstantiated nasty crap... Bernie supporters, Hillary supporters... and even an O'Malley supporter or two. Pretty much take the absolute worst you've seen here and distil it, and that's what was in the chat window.

That's my two cents anyway.
