[Bonaparte]

"The moderator is obnoxious."

He's got nothing on Camejo, whose closing statement is a condemnation of Bush and the war in Iraq, something that has, of course, nothing to do with the Governor of California and the problems in this state.

[Diddle E. Squat]

McClintock was winning, but stumbled at the very end. Arnold was witty, but pretty much tap danced and treaded water. Cruz was smooth, and tried to play the polite victim, the poor little hard working Hispanic unfairly treated by the whites.

Given what each candidate needed to achieve in order to better position themselves, I hate to say it but I think Cruz was the most successful. He's all about niche marketing. Tom did good enough to further close his gap on Arnold, making it even harder for one or the other to drop out.
