Illinois Sen. Barack Obama showed this morning why he's in the presidential race with his best debate performance to date, one in which he commanded details, looked Oval Office ready and effectively made the case that he is indeed the candidate of true change -- and that instead of polarizing GOP voters in the fall of 2008 he may be able to pick off some of them. Obama gained the most ground of any of the candidates in the debate... Want a change? "I'm your guy," said Obama. "We're going to need someone to break out of the political pattern we've been in the last 20 years," Obama said.

This debate was a great way to finish off Barack's five-day swing through Iowa. He is showing that he is a complete candidate and the person best-suited to become the next president.
What did you think of the debate?
