Sadly, Kerry has lost the debate before it's even conducted
... the post debate spin will probably determine who "won" the debate. With Fox News and CNN leading the "national opinion" spin. Bush has won before it even begins.

:puke: :thumbsdown: :cry:

I can't see how anything short of a domination by Kerry will keep these guys honest. And even then, they will minimize a Bush defeat.
:mad: :grr:

3. Yet another reason not to have cable.
I have been without it since 93. Garbage and lies, garbage and lies.

9. Exactly.
Why pay good money to help these morons? This is where the emperor has a wardrobe challenge. The more screens that go dark and stay dark, the better a chance media will pay attention to ....... no , not a chance. There is still too big a popluation that is addicted to media brainwash.

I am just not part of that population. Good for you too. I prefer reading.

Kerry can win this debate. I expect him to do so. Yes, many of the so-called pundits will spin, but there's no need to hyperventilate. Kerry really is a terrific debater. Even in this trumped up forum I expect him to win.

7. It is lost only if you follow mainstream media
The Bush Administration has a win win position:

If Kerry destroys Bush they say he is a master debator, Bush never had a chance.

If Kerry is kind in his attacks, they say Kerry as a master debator should have done much better and isn't much of a leader

If kerry falters in anyway, they say Bush is the man for you, you saw him at the debate.

Our President for the last 4 years is being presented as a man who can barely tie his shoes next to Kerry when it comes to debating. My question is, do we want this man to negotiate with Iran, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Korea to demilitarize?
