Thread Name: BS: They both lost the debate
Subject: RE: BS: They both lost the debate
Wow, this is the ONLY thread on Presidential Debacle #3, and it has only TWO posts? The morning after?

Man, Kerry must have lost big time. Reuters snap poll showed Bush up by 1 point, all the other polls still show them even or where they were going into the debate (ie Kerry is still showing ahead of Bush in the polls that showed him that way before last night).

So! Now that the last one is done, is anyone ready to make any fearless predictions on the winner of the horse race?

My prediction: the Bush camp has a helluva October surprise up it's sleeve, which will hit the news sometime around the 20th-25th, and it will be four more years. This Democratic candidate is, to put it plainly, just a miserably poor candidate, and so hasn't been able to capitalize on the widespread discontent with the current occupant. They are tied now, but the October surprise will insure an easy coast across the finish line for Bush, because Kerry's support is thin, spotty, and mushy.
