Did it help or hurt their image? Did they do well or poorly with this session and the publicity it gained?

The only thing they showed me was another attempt on their part to fool the American public into thinking that they were actually doing something...

They showed little except their tenacity (or great coffee) and accomplished even less. This was largely ceremonial, ie., trying to prove their opposition to the war and all things Republican.
On the publicity end, the Democrats didn't succeed too much since Oprah/Obama and Michael Vick have supplanted the all-nighter in the news.

What it did is force the GOP to display their lack of patriotism and contempt for the welfare of our troops and for the will of the American people yet agin.
It will further erode the ability of the right wing to intimidate the many decent Republicans--further erode Bush's last vestige of power.

Their approval ratings dropped another 1%. If they are trying to make Bush look bad, I think they need a different tactic instead of insomnia.

They accomplished the same thing that they do in a regular session, NOTHING.

The democrats proved that they are unable to get the necessary votes to move their agenda forward.

They made themselves look silly. But nobody paid much attention one way or the other.
