Just wondering....a question maybe someone can answer.

Does anyone remember any Presidential election in which either party, regardless of whether challenger or incumbent, went 0 for 4 in the debates? Very real possibility, in fact, a distict probability of that happening next week!

1. I dont recall a presidential debate where anyone was declared the winner

Personal opinions don't really matter.

2. I don't agree, but some would say 2000

Cheney won the VP debate by double digits and Bush took the 2nd debate by consensus. The third was close and I had Gore winning but I think the polls had Bush the victor, partially due to the incident with Gore invading Bushspace. The first debate definitely helped Bush in the polls after Gore's behavior, but the immediate polls listed Gore well ahead on substance, as high as 56-42.
