I wonder what the results would have been if Mr. Gallup asked those interviewed whether they believed Mr. Nader won the debates. Oh well, why confuse anyone.

ROTFLOL. Candidates don't win or lose the debates. It's the spinmeisters after the debates that win or lose the debates.

There are those that decide who won the debates based on who they supported before the debates; a very large group. There are those that wait until someone tells them who won the debate. Another large group but substantially smaller. I understand these two groups....let's call the Pavlov voters. At this point in the campaign season, the most perplexing group is the "undecided". How can they possibly be "undecided"? The Pavlovian section of their brain isn't even working.

I heard the previews of what would be in the presentations last night. I listened to 1 response from Mr. Bush and found that it was one of the previewed blurbs. That was enough for me.

I missed this last debate, though I did hear a partial rerun on C-Span. I find the summary re-enactments of the debates by Saturday Night Live to be the best summaries.
