Josh Marshall / Talking Points Memo:
MY TAKE ON THE DEM DEBATE  —  So, a few observations about the Democratic debate.  —  First, a few months ago, I said that I didn't get what Barack Obama thought he was doing in one of the debates, that he was doing a very good job debating as the frontrunner, when in fact he was falling further and further behind Hillary Clinton.

New York Times:
At Debate, Two Rivals Go After Defiant Clinton  —  MANCHESTER, N.H. — It was as if they sensed vulnerability.  —  Senator Barack Obama and John Edwards went after Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton as never before in a televised debate here on Saturday night.
Senator Hillary Clinton / New York Times:
The Democratic Debate in New Hampshire  —  The following is the transcript of the Democratic presidential debate at St. Anselm College in Manchester, N.H., as transcribed by Federal News Service.  —  DEMOCRATIC PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES DEBATE PARTICIPANTS:  —  FORMER SENATOR JOHN EDWARDS (D-NC)
Jennifer Parker / Political Punch:
Hillary's Debate Moment  —  It won't come across on the transcript, but Sen. Hillary Clinton got angry during the debate tonight.  —  She was bickering with Sen. Barack Obama about their differences on health insurance, and whether Obama's plan leaves millions of Americans uninsured.
George McGovern / Washington Post:
Why I Believe Bush Must Go  —  Nixon Was Bad.  These Guys Are Worse.  —  As we enter the eighth year of the Bush-Cheney administration, I have belatedly and painfully concluded that the only honorable course for me is to urge the impeachment of the president and the vice president.
Mike Allen / The Politico:
Playbook: Bradley to endorse Obama  —  Good Sunday morning.  —  The local front of the (Manchester) Union Leader has a story about media groupies who, in a quadrennial ritual, congregate around hotels in hopes of getting a photo with Chris Wallace or Tucker Carlson.

Hugh Hewitt / Townhall.com:
“I Thought That Mitt Romney Won The debate.”  —  Dick Morris is no friend of Mitt Romney, and his declaration of Romney as the “winner” tonight is the assessment that caught my eye.  That's called “an admission against interest,” and it is very significant.  I think I know why.

Nicholas Confessore / New York Times:
Scratch an Independent Bloomberg and Get a Democrat, Positions Show  —  Hundreds of miles from the hustings of New Hampshire lurks a possible presidential candidate who supports gay marriage, abortion rights and stricter regulation of handguns.  Who doesn't mind taxing the rich on their income …
George Will / Real Clear Politics:
The Problem with Populists  —  WASHINGTON — Like Job after losing his camels and acquiring boils, the conservative movement is in distress.  Mike Huckabee shreds the compact that has held the movement's two tendencies in sometimes uneasy equipoise.  Social conservatives …
Ezra Klein / American Prospect:
THE PRESS CORPS.  —  Read Chris Hayes on the psychology of the press corps here.  I'd add that it's a bit astonishing to watch the real-time narrative construction that went on at last night's debate.  I must have heard the term “meltdown” in reference to Hillary 65 times.
