Democratic Des Moines Register Debate Analysis
From CBS News Correspondent Dean Reynolds, who's covering the Obama campaign:
JOHNSTON, IOWA -- Sen. Barack Obama was attempting to answer questions more forthrightly this afternoon. He dealt with the environment, with education, the Iraq War and special interest lobbying. He dropped the professorial elocutions that have turned his debate performances into rather halting and hesitant affairs.

From CBS News' John Bentley:
DES MOINES, IOWA -- At a short press conference after today's Des Moines Register debate, Fred Thompson went off on the "Can I see a show of hands"-type question the moderator asked at one point as well as the format of the debate.
“I just decided I wasn’t going to engage in any of this monkey business that they like to engage in sometimes, making us look like trained monkeys up there reaching for a peanut or something, raising our hands, not raising our hands. Thirty seconds is brief enough, and when they try to reduce your answer to just a hand raise – I ain’t going to play that game.”
