It was very good debate actually. Moderated decently. No real 'gotcha' moments though, but every major topic was discussed.

(IMO) Elizabeth May was the rock star of the debate. Mulcair did verrrry well. Trudeau was petulant at first, got a bit better, and then delivered another silly melodramatic closing pitch that begs re-editing with Barber's Adagio for Strings, and Harper just looked and sounded pathetic and defeated. That's my take.

Oh, and this:
