Fear not. Team Bush has already released a hard-hitting ad hammering F'n over the "global test" thing. This will turn out to be the story of the debate - the fodder F'n gave us.

Second, Rasmussen, Gallup, and even Carville-Greenberg all say that Kerry improved his image but so did Bush (admittedly not quite as much) with the debate. Kerry's improvements will be short-lived - such debate bounces always are. The horse-race numbers from Rasmussen's polling last night were similar to his polling done before the debate - Kerry looks good to the dems - looks the same to the rest of America. Bush didn't deliver a knockout on Thursday, which we would have liked, but he's still in a dominant position.

Finally, glance at Newsweek, Time, NY Times, etc. but don't dwell on them. People in Ohio, Florida, Arizona and Colorado don't read those rags. Only libs who aren't coming to our side read them. They make NO difference. Get out of your funk - I, too was disappointed Thursday, but we are still ahead and time is ticking... We are now onto the debate about taxes, which will help W immensely...

Thanks. You made me feel better. I was feeling rotten Thursday night and it seems like everything I see or hear this weekend makes things look bad for Bush and good for Kerry. It isn't like me to have a pity party but I'm a little worried. Thanks for pointing out some good news. I need it!
