While Obama has the momentum coming out of Iowa and will probably win NH I think Edwards won the debate. He was really passionate last night and I think he got the better of both Clinton and Obama. Despite the national media trying to freeze Edwards out of the contest he keeps hanging in there with great performances in the debates and his workhorse campaigning. I wouldn't count out Mr. Edwards for a minute.
By the way, in case you haven't seen the recent Boston Globe article that details how Obama has been stealing and running on Edwards message you might want to check it out. This really needs to get much more coverage by the media because it matters when one campaign steals the message of another and tries to claim it as it's own. Does Obama really have any ideas of his own or are we going to nominate a guy whose only qualification is that he gives great speeches?

NASHUA, N.H. -- After beating John Edwards in Iowa on Thursday, Barack Obama has decided to join him -- repeatedly poaching his opponent's themes, language, and even jokes.
