The comments from Rasmussen today indicate that Bush is back to where he was before the first debate. Remember way back then when we were all euphoric over the possibility of a serious trouncing of Kerry? Well, my opinion is that we are back there, and Kerry's slide is not over. He is so busy on the defensive right now over the lesbian comment and Stolen Honor that he is having to work hard to preserve the blue on the map. I think Bush is going to put him in a vice and pound him unrecognizable. Bush is one tough SOB. He has proved it time and time again. I really don't think Kerry knew who he was messing with when he got in this race.
