The others are shifty & insecure. Clinton & Edwards eyes dart, they show anxiety and are quick to defensiveness. Johnny looks like he is trying on facial poses to appear a serious adult..Forget about a LEADER! Give him credit though. He did try to reach his inner nature, though unsuccessfully.
Chris Matthews is half-drunk in the post-game analysis. I don't know what these guys think they are seeing and hearing, but they surely aren't seeing these candidates with open eyes. Matthews guesses Hillary won because she took on Bush harshly so she is now the "leader of the party".
The self-image of a candidate is more important than whatever it is these news guys are seeing. I don't mean over-confidence, either. Clinton and Edwards are closer to G.Bush than they are to Obama.
Insecure and emotionally fragile.
Obama scored on every question.
The order is "in". Hillary must look good.
Make viewers unsure about the reality they just saw, and wonder if maybe Cris and Keith are right -
