If you saw it, and are honest to yourself, you'll see her in her element. She was poised, intelligent, and despite tough questions, answered them with equal poise.

She is a gifted politician and yes, she lacks the charisma of Obama or Edwards, but she DOES have familiarity with policy and experience that both of them lack. Her statements today were clear and well thought out, and expressed with the pithy clarity we need from a candidate. She is MADE for elections, and for better or worse, she speaks in sound bytes. She is a machine.

I am a Clinton supporter and I BELIEVE the tears were fake. I'm probably the only one, but I place value first on the ability to win elections and Clinton is surgical. Every word out of her mouth is optimized for success and I see her eviscerating any Republican.

Obama and Edwards give better stump speeches, but at a debate, she wrecks it.
