2. The media tried that bullshit with the 2008 between Obama and Hillary.

Media gave every debate win to Hillary and the public thought Obama won. What happened afterwards was a huge increase of donations and rising poll #s for Obama. Media was forced to backtrack on Hillary won nonsense.

Media is in rescue Hillary mode in the past few days so I expect they'll spin this for Hillary and say O'Malley didn't do enough, etc. But, I expect O'Malley to rise in Iowa polls and to get an increase in donations.

I am more worried for the bad news about O'Malley's 3rd quarter donations. He is one of the only few who hasn't released them yet. I am guessing they are awful and they are due to be released right after the debate so that may slow his momentum.
