Gould,
I cringed watching Bush and could not believe Bush's poor performance. Once
Kerry got on a roll after 15-20 min. he dominated the debate.

Bush completely blew it, but according to CNN the polls do not show the
debate changed anyone's mind.

Makes sense that the supporters of the guy who won't reconsider his
opinions as
new evidence comes to light won't reconsider their own in the same
circumstances. I can't imagine that Kerry's excellent performance cost him
any
votes among his own supporters, either.

What the debate accomplished is it allowed Kerry to make a direct,
spin-free
contrast to Bush. No Rather, Moore, Hannity, or Limbaugh running
interference
for either one. Mano a mano, Kerry kicked his butt.
