Check out what the pundits are saying:

"I thought Anthony Weiner looked like an adult, like a serious person with serious ideas."
—Tom Doherty, GOP consultant.

"Weiner wanted to make his case forcefully that he is the candidate of ideas and proposals, that he’s forceful, that he’s willing to fight for the middle class. I think he did that pretty forcefully."
—Howard Wolfson

"In the case of Anthony Weiner, he was trying to stake out some different thematic and philosophical ground. He basically says we can’t keep doing as Democrats the same things we’ve done for three elections in a row that we’ve lost. We’ve got to give people a middle class tax cut. He does have a somewhat different thematic message about what it means to be a Democrat in New York in 2005."
—Howard Wolfson.

"Winners, losers tonight?" —Davidson Goldin
"Weiner, Freddy, Gifford, and Virginia last." —Gerson Borrero, El Diario

"Weiner had the best performance of the night, especially given that he was in the hospital a few hours ago."
—John Avlon, New York Sun
