A Turning Point in Presidential Campaign ’08 (Rep. Artur Davis)

I think that Democratic debate served as a turning point in this campaign. There is a dead heat in Iowa and if Senator Clinton does not win in Iowa, there will be a reassessment of the race.

It was not a good night for Clinton. Not taking a clear position on the important issue of Social Security hurt her. When she was asked the question on whether or not illegal immigrants should be given drivers licenses, she was not for or against it. I think that voters will look at that.

Democratic voters want to hear policy agenda. What Clinton did last night by not having a clear position, may rub voters the wrong way.

The reality is, the nomination race is not over yet.
