More and more 'pundit' opinion floated through the air, authoritatively in tone but not with facts. Questions were asked such as "What do you think Hillary is thinking now?", struggling to put new interpretations to the obvious. The best of the evening was Terry McAuliffe on Jon Stewart. It is pitiful, as I've written before, that to get a sense of reality in the political world, one must go to a comedian who presents a more accurate picture than the journalists because he puts the facts right up there in front of your face instead of just replaying sound bites ad nauseum.
