From The UpTake
ABC News has told news organizations that they can only use 30 seconds of video from Wednesday night's debate between Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. The UpTake's Noah Kunin is in Philadelphia where the debate took place and sees if the entire debate can be summarized in 30 seconds.

That's easily less than 30 seconds.
Debate Review in 30 Seconds:
Health care, jobs, housing crisis, education, global trade, and Osama bin Laden
= 0 questions and follow-ups
Flag pins, Rev. Wright, William Ayers, and Sniper Fire
= 14 questions and follow-ups
Gibson and Stephanopoulos jeered at end of debate
= Priceless
In 30 seconds? Easy. It wasn't a debate. It was a Sopranos episode, with Obama playing Big Pussy, and Charlie Gibson playing Tony Soprano, George Stephanopolos playing Paulie Walnuts, and Hillary in the role of Silvio. For those of you who have seen the episode where these 4 are on a boat together, and Big Pussy gets whacked by the other 3, you will understand...
Worst. Debate. Ever.
Doesn't even require 30 seconds...
The debate was an embarrasment. I guess as ABC was going up against "American Idol" they figured they'd keep it to the same level of intellegence.
Best debate. Barack actually got some questions. He might as well been looking at his watch.
he can't win the rural votes or blue collar voters.

this article at this site is the real numbers the Maps show HRC won most of the states unanimously in the rural areas and blue collar cities
Oh, you mean Republican strongholds? How does this work with that ridiculous "big states / blue states" argument?
Hillary will be lucky to keep her Senate seat after this is all said and done.
Yes, druidmary, your analysis is SO profound. Exactly what I would expect from a deep thinker like you.
I'm so glad they spent a good 5 minutes debating Obama's flag pin - y'know, the one Hillary wasn't wearing either? I'm glad they asked several questions about Wright. A month of coverage is hardly enough. All America wants to know is how much the Rev. loves his country. Oh! And redefining the word bitter for the umpteenth time - wasn't that a great question? These are the things deep thinkers like yourself really want to know. And, even though we have hear about Bosnia already ad nauseum, and we already know it was a blatant lie, wasn't it just great to hear about that again? GREAT! And this complete non-story about Ayers. Wasn't that meaningful? If we know someone, we ARE them, right? It was the BEST dedicating 51 minutes of debate to these super important things. Sadly, they wasted almost the whole last 20 minutes talking about stupid issues like war. And the angry poor I am sure were very glad to get this capial gains thing out of the way. I am so happy they didn't waste any more time on issues, because that stuff is just stupid. At least they redeemed themselves by letting the last 5 minutes be about how superdelegates should vote against the will of the people - against the delegates we elected in a "fair" election.
Yes - it was the BEST debate ever!
A worthy question..unfortunately the flag pins are made in China...
best recap ever. worst debate ever.
