The recent Democratic debate offered some of the best TV available in quite some time and sadly many people saw none of it. (Click here to view debate)

HRod and BamBam engaged in some very entertaining tit for tat that has been minimized to only a couple of sound bytes that fail to show the degree of confrontation that actually occurred. (Admittedly, the animosity may have been all for show...)

The cut I have seen the most shows the audience booing HRod as she raises questions about BamBam's "present" votes. While she may have overstated the concern about these "present" votes, these votes do make him appear at least a little non committal.

BamBam's concern about trying to figure out who he is running against- Bill or Hillary was hilarious. Hill's slam about BamBam working on behalf of a slumlord irked the Man and his comments about her helping the evil Walmart raised her hackles. Really humorous stuff...

Then we had Edwards doing his darndest to get a word in edgewise. The man with the best hair tried to talk policy- actual policy- and he made some great points, when Blitzer let him talk. I don't agree with his notions about universal health care but he did a much better job of pointing out differences between his plan and the plans of Hill and Obama than either of the front runners did.

And by the way, the Wolfman consistently demonstrators the lack of judgement by the powers that be at CNN- he had no control over the debate- Edwards was politely apologetic for trying to interject himself while the two other candidates ran on and on.

The jabbing in this debate was better than any boxing match I've seen. I hope the rematch is even better.
