Kerry’s reputation as a flip flopper is well deserved.
Kerry did not win the debate so much as Bush lost it.

Kerry spent the entire debate hunting for a cohesive debate.

I agree with dick morris. If Bush had been on his game, even a little, we would be discussing the election in the past tense.

a slew of new state polling confirms that, although Kerry won the debate, he is still bleeding in the election. In fact, it is difficult to see him having any reasonable hope of reaching 270 electoral votes.

Right now, Kerry is in deep trouble in virtualy all of the red states and half of the blue states.

He won the debate on points but it did virtualy nothing to alter the election race- where it counts. This despite an awful performance by Bush.

Team Bush has to be heartened that Kerry cant take advantage of Bush- even at his very worst.
