The July 23 Democratic Debate
Mark Halperin scores it a win for Obama, a loss for Richardson and one giant step for user generated content
Grade: B+
A success: entertaining and informative at once. Still hard to get eight people involved and have answers of a length that allows for substance, but a lot of ground was covered in 120 minutes. The gimmicky aspects were overwhelmed by the quality of the questions — their spirit, tone and human face. Old Media met New Media, and if it wasn't quite as smooth as chocolate meeting peanut butter, you can bet there'll be more taste tasting in the near future.
