Disturbing Pattern - Objective Analysis of Last Night’s Debate

John LeBoutillier
Friday, Oct. 1, 2004


1. President Bush continued a strange pattern of coming up ‘tired’ and oddly ‘passive’ in major media appearances this year: A) a weak State of the Union address in January; B) A subdued Meet the Press performance with Tim Russert in the Oval Office in the winter; and C) a surprisingly ineffective major speech on the War in Iraq at the Army War College at Carlyle, Pennsylvania.


...2. From a purely political point of view, the Bush Campaign should have primed Bush to “finish Kerry off” last night. In other words, when you have your opponent down on the canvas, knock the hell out of him and finish the job once and for all!

...3. Kerry’s supporters are re-energized. Going into last night they were fearful of a trouncing on November 2. Today they believe the next four weeks may count for something.


....And Kerry can and will win if he goes into Election Day tied. In that case, the “Passion Differential’ - more ‘anti-Bush sentiment’ driving voters to the polls than ‘pro-Bush’ sentiment - will propel Kerry to a narrow victory.

1. Bush dealt a leathal blow to his supporters last night.
He took the wind right out of their sails and now he will loose.

2. I guess Newsmax isn't trying to hide their bias.

6. Newsmax is a conservative mag. O'Reilly writes in it.

5. why am I suspect of so much praise of Kerry from the right, now?
See Bush is using McCain and Zell Miller to pimp for him at the Pennsylvania rally this morning. Might also include CNN as one of his pimps, too. :mad:
