The June 3 Democratic Debate
As Mark Halperin scored it from New Hampshire, Hillary won the bout, Edwards and Biden landed jabs — and Mike Gravel kept shadowboxing
Hillary Clinton
Able to look commanding and presidential even as she fielded niggling, hoary questions that bordered on the absurd. Never lost her temper, her focus or her cool, and even dispatched a crowd-pleasing Dick Cheney zinger. Occasionally lapsed into the weary defensiveness she displayed during the health care wars of '93 and various subsequent Clinton sagas. Bottom line: came in the front-runner and leaves in a stronger position.
