"Pew's weak headline buries stunning news in the poll. Romney has wiped out the 'gender gap' with his strong debate performance:"

Even worse than the erasure of the gender gap is the fact that PEW used 44% men in the survey and 56% women. I find it hard to believe that women will vote that much more than men.....

This is great because now Obama and Biden will overcompensate in next debates and appear even worse.

I predict that both will go into the Shmuck Mode.

Among likely voters, Romney holds a slight 49% to 45% edge over Obama. He trailed by eight points among likely voters last month.

Romney likely ALWAYS had the lead. It's just that now the pollsters have to worry about their reputations.

The only confusing part of the debate was trying to figure out what King Barry was trying to say.

In 2004 men were 46.5% of vote while women were 53.5.

Here it is men 44% and women 56.

Me thinks a blowout is on the way.

Obama can still win if Romney screws up.

Pew used a rigorous likely voter screen this time: they asked 7 different questions. They are also predicting high turnout, around 64%. I think R+3 is realistic, because it jives with Rasmussen’s Party Identification which showed R+2.6 for September.

I think you’re right about Obama/Biden overcompensating. Remember in 2000 Al Gore tried out 3 different personages during the 3 debates, and enough voters decided Gore was too freaky-deaky to vote for.

I think so too. The huge number of viewers for the debate tells me folks are ready to fire Obama and were looking to see if Romney was an acceptable replacement for Obama. The post-debate polls tell me they found him to be more than acceptable to replace Obama.

Biden will be tough. Not that Ryan can’t win the debate, but he’ll have more control than Obama. Obama’s living under the stench of the first debate. It’s eating at him. Biden, is a good debater, and has no such problem going into Wednesday.

The funniest was when Gore walked up to Bush during the town hall style debate in an attempt to intimidate him by getting in his space.

Bush looked over at him and nodded like “what do you want a##hole”?
