I suspect anyone you ask will tell you the crowd was biased against whichever debater they happen to support themselves.
That's the problem.
This was a wash. Noone won, not even on the facts.
That makes me angry at Clegg. This should have been the beginning of the end for the Euroskeptics, and he just messed it up.
This debate was never going to be the "beginning of the end" for either side. As Arch said a few pages back it was always just going to reinforce peoples beliefs, rather than change them.
Clegg didn't do a bad job, but neither did Farage. Both played the traditional tune and went from there.
