After reading many of the comments here at the DU, I was able to finally see the debate myself.

While remaining a gentleman throughout the debate, Senator Reid scored point after point with every key, voting demographic group in Nevada from the middle class, women, working men and women, parents, teachers, environmentalists, GLBT Americans, senior citizens, veterans, minorities including Latinos, and even old white guys like himself.

For all her annoying twisting and turning and frozen smiling, she still lost the debate on specifics, on atmospherics, and especially on personality.

Tomorrow as voters in Nevada reflect on this debate, there will be a comforting resolve favoring Senator Harry Reid.

Sharon Angle made a big mistake by mocking Senator Reid telling him to "man up."

Sharon Angle should watch the debate again. She clearly missed something: Harry Reid did "man up". He just did so as a gentleman.

Congratulations to Senator Reid. I didn't think you had it in you. You clearly did. And you just clinched re-election.
