Battle for Ohio---Cleveland Debate
During the entire 16 minute back and forth debate on healthcare, Mrs. Clinton never explained how she would enforce the mandatory healthcare plan she is advocating for the American people. Hillary conveniently tap danced around this line of inquiry because she is really afraid of telling the truth to the American voters. Mrs. Clinton should have just said she would garnish the wages of those individuals who failed to comply with the mandatory medical insurance. When Obama informed Hillary that under her plan the insurance companies would be the biggest beneficiaries, Hillary did not counter Obama’s claim. Therefore, Hillary lost that round.
When Hillary Clinton was running for her first U.S. senate campaign in New York, she promised the voters five million new jobs in the Greater Buffalo and southwestern corridor of New York State. Tim Russert of Meet the Press, one of the moderators of the debate, asked Hillary about the authenticity of those figures since the Greater Buffalo Corridor has lost 30,000 jobs since the beginning of her first senatorial campaign. Hillary looked befuddled, dumbfounded, perplexed and waffled in responding to Mr. Russert’s line of inquiry on this subject matter.
Throughout the entire debate, Hillary’s body language indicated she was upset, strident, insecure and emotional. Hillary’s lips tightened up on several occasions when confronted with some basic truisms about her inconsistent positions, her flipflopping, her attacks, her distortions of Obama’s speeches and the sinister acts directed at Obama and his campaign by Clinton operatives or surrogates.
Mr. Russert finally got Hillary Clinton to begrudgingly admit she made an error in judgment in voting for the war in Iraq. Mr. Obama won the argument on NAFTA. Mr. Russert revealed how inconsistent Mrs. Clinton has been on NAFTA in changing her positions for political expediency. Obama looked presidential during the entire debate. Hillary at times appeared confused and on the verge of crying when confronted with her inconsistencies and distortions.
Mr. Obama won this debate hands down. Hillary needed a knockout punch. Instead she delivered weak counter punching and soft jabs. Barack won the debate with sharp, crisp counter punching, but he still failed to deliver a knockout punch.

1. Hillary didn't waffle about the jobs lost near Buffalo - she said that her prediction was based on Gore becoming president.
2. You're right, Hillary did not look as confident or "presidential" as BO bc she was repeatedly, rudely interrupted, which made her appear to be mildly desperate, while BO was allowed to ramble and complete each statement with dignity. Their responses to the final question were even filmed differently: he was seen in a medium shot, revealing the sincerity of his expression, while she was seen from a distance and through a camera that did not look her square in the face, preventing her from having another powerful, emotional closing moment like the one she had in the last debate.
