I was watching you show today (on Londonderry Public Access and I enjoy it when I catch it) when you discussed the recent candidates debates.

You referred to the Democratic leaders as "Obama, Hillary and Edwards".
Since she first ran for Senate from New York, Clinton has rarely used her last name. There are people who still dislike Bill for his fooling around with an employee in the White House. There are some not happy with the thought of Bush, Clinton, Bush, Clinton.

So it is to her advantage to stress her first name. But as reporters, it should be the same. Either "Obama, Clinton, Edwards" or Barach, Hillary, John". Obviously the first one is the better choice.
