ALL pundits keep saying....

[Clinton Crusader]

when they show debate polls -

REMEMBER, these polls WILL change a few days after the debate

Makes me wonder if they would all be saying tif smirk won the debate..
:kick:

1. If the pore li'l chile had won...

...they'd be saying, Game Over, Kerry might as well drive around in a tank for all the good it would do him.

[girl gone mad]

2. You know they wouldn't.

The spin would be:

Kerry really had to win, and he didn't. It's over for Kerry. Democrats might as well stay home on election day.

3. setting it up..and I don't remember

the warning LAST election???

4. There is some truth

that spin and fact-checking might sway perception. For example, when Kerry and Bush were arguing over how much money has been spent (or not spent) on non-proliferation, I had no idea what the true figures were. That's a point I want to follow up in the aftermath.

However, it will be very hard to turn this into a "chimpy victory" because his performance was so lame.

5. Honestly, we couldn't have hoped for better than this.

And we now have more ammunition for exposing the media's credibility gap.
