I see posts from Katzenkavsomething (Sorry I can't remember the name exactly) saying that he and Clinton won. Clinton perhaps was able to sound somewhat competent and smooth. Obama, on the other hand, seemed like he was struggling. He desperately needs a debate coach. Also, his answers seemed to me to be trite, and he let Edwards completely demolish him convincingly (ESPECIALLY on not leading on the question of the war funding bill).

I thought Edwards did reasonably well, but to tell you the truth I think Biden debated the best and won the debate, though I don't agree with his policy stance.

EDIT:

Fillers, stuttering, stock phrases, looking confused and unassertive, it's just bad debating.

That's all. I know you guys like him and are properly already in his campaign, but let's be honest here.
