DARTMOUTH, New Hampshire (CNN) -- Sen. Barack Obama said Monday that he expects his performance in next week's presidential debate to improve from his first head-to-head match-up with the other Democratic contenders last month in South Carolina.

"I assume it will get better as time goes on," the Illinois Democrat answered after being asked whether he expects to receive better reviews at the New Hampshire Democratic presidential debate being held Sunday, June 3rd at Saint Anselm College in Manchester.

The South Carolina Democratic presidential debate was the Illinois senator's first such event and his performance was rated by political analysts as just fair. Obama said the important thing for him is to keep his answers to 60 seconds, but added that it's sometimes hard for him to do so.

"Sometimes I have a long wind up," Obama said.

To rate his last performance as "just fair" is being far too generous too him. A few tips - EU is NOT a country, stay off of the topic of light bulbs, and a political debate's not akin to pitching in a baseball game.

That this hump is a serious contender to be POTUS says a lot about our country, most of it bad.

Well, good for you, Obama. I wouldn’t vote for you if you and I were the last 2 people on earth.

“Obama hopes to improve.”

It also says much about the Hildebeest and her presumptive supporters.

Maybe he can fix the illegal immigration problems. I wonder what his position is?

When I see this kid trying to be president I think of Nicholas Cage in Peggy Sue Got Married. He was given the part, no doubt, because of his uncle; but he was NOT ready to act in public.

There are other things I think of when I think of Osama being president; but I don't want to be banned.
