I just read all the threads relating to the debate. I was not surprised to find that the posters who listened to the debate changed their opinion of each candidate not one whit.

Mudcatters are not the target audience of these debates anyway. I would venture to guess that less than 1% of Mudcatters is undecided about who he/she will vote for in the election. Had Gore struck a induspitable victory, those "Catters" who back Bush wouldn't admit it. The same is true of Bush supporters.

A hundred years from now it won't make a particle of difference to anyone who reads these threads.
