    This is a misleading report

    You make it sound as if Obama's attack on Clinton for sitting on the K-Mart board was a response to her low blow about Rezco, but in fact it was exactly the opposite. I doubt she would even have mentioned that if he hadn't taken that cheap shot. And you also pretend that the attacks on Obama were over minor issues, yet I think both Clinton and Edwards scored major blows on him over health care, over his voting present yet attacking them for their up/down votes, over voting against a cap on credit-card rates in the bankruptcy bill. Obama stammered embarrassingly trying to respond in particular to Edwards' criticisms. I thought he had a terrible debate.
