Politics – Reflecting what seemed to be the main consensus of the night - that ABC botched this debate, big time - Charlie Gibson tells the crowd there will be one more, superfluous commercial break of the night and is subsequently jeered.

ABC managed the debate horribly. I mean, Stephanopolis worked for Clinton, what a conflict of interest. There was more than a few times that he set up Hillary after attacking Obama and then lobbing the ball to her so she could attack.
What freaked me out was the look on Hillary's face when they were attacking Obama, she was giddy and grinning.
I felt sorry for Obama. He's being beaten up for all this stuff that other people said or did. He looked like the kid who doesn't want to fight in the middle of a gang trying to get him to fight.
This debate was a disgrace. Assuming right wing talking points are facts and then using a series of 'gotcha' questions to ambush the candidates does nothing to help inform Americans. In fact, the only winner in this debate was John McCain.
The thing that kills me is that Clinton *can not win the nomination* and is forcing Obama to fight against her despicable negative attacks *and* John McCain's attacks, while McCain goes unquestioned and is essentially running against nobody.
This horrible "debate" wouldn't even have happened if Clinton had dropped out of the race a month ago (or longer) like she should have, if she truly cared about the Democratic party.
