Debate #7: Wonder Twins Against Bush. Guns.

Iraq- The issue that allows them to turn from each other and show some semblance of party unity in attacking Bush. This nomination battle stands on a razor's edge and each candidate must balance attacking each other just enough to win the Dem prize but attacking the GOP in unison to show that they are loyal to the party. The substantive differences between these two are few, as I said in my earlier post.

Guns are at issue again, giving Hillary the chance to reiterate her support (and camraderie) with the pro-gun voters... upstate New York has them too so she knows them well.

Will is right, Hillary is noticeably shorter in the two-shot- but perhaps this is to her advantage. She tends to do better in primaries when she is positioned as an underdog, needing a boost up literally and figuratively.
