The left was uniformly of the opinion that Reagan had embarrassed himself in the debates.

Probably the usual 30% hard-core liberal left. My guess is that almost all 'Pubs and a sizable majority of independents thought Reagan did okay. I thought his "Are you better of today than you were four years ago? Is America more respected around the world today than it was four years ago?" was an absolutely brilliant stroke, and it devastated any arguments Carter and the 'rats could have offered.

He won anyway because Carter was a failure.

No question about that. Will Obama be perceived likewise in two years? I guess we'll see.

Obama is toast. Appealing to the Chamber of Commerce to hire more people isn’t a very good economic strategy. Doofus doesn’t get it.
