In case you missed it, or just want to relive the rhetorical pyrotechnics, check out this collection of debate highlights (including the Edwards-Obama-Clinton throwdown) assembled by PoliticsTV.

John Edwards sticks it to Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, saying they’ve lacked leadership on the war. Obama responds with a smackdown: “John, the fact is … that I opposed this war from the start, so you’re about 4 1/2 years late on leadership on this issue.”
Hillary talks about Iran, praises diplomacy and makes fun of Dick Cheney.
Would you try to take out Bin Laden if it involved killing innocent civilians?
Mike Gravel, Clinton and Obama on English as the official language. WAIT BEFORE YOU GO...
