@ByronYork asking a question that invites a semantic debate about "contained" meaning geography less effective than the quote I did use.

@jdickerson Appeared Hillary did not intend to debate semantics; was prepared to answer 'contained' question; used word anyway. -
@ByronYork The ball to keep eye on is whether ISIS was underestimated. -
@johndickerson IMO, more than one ball. Yes, underestimated question key. But so is Dem candidates' assessment of ISIS today. -
@ByronYork yes, that's why the notion of whether ISIS is gaining strength is more important than land control. -
@johndickerson Think we just disagree on this one thing. To me, 'contained' refers to reach as well as land control. ISIS reached into Paris - 1 more reply

@ByronYork moderator did quote Obama. Then asked candidates whether Obama admin had erred in underestimating ISIS. -
@ByronYork Dickerson: " Secretary Clinton...hours before the attacks, President Obama said, 'I don't think ISIS is gaining strength.' " -
@ByronYork a different quote I guess but effectively the same line of questioning right? -
@zbeiley Similar line, but quote matters. Hillary was obviously ready for it, but quote wasn't used. -
@ByronYork eh. close enough that it doesn't deserve disbelief. Now if you want to take issue with Clinton's non-critical response...
