Once More, With Feeling

We'll soon have new debates to discuss, but I'm gonna take one more crack at the first.

Those who think Kerry lost keep harping on what he actually said. It's true, in trying to please an anti-war base while reaching out to pro-war voters, he had a tough time threading the needle. But the reason he won the debate isn't about substance, it's about Rush Limbaugh's favorite word, character.

Before the debate, the anti-Kerry people had done a great job painting him as irresolute and even devious. Meanwhile, Bush, at his convention, had reminded people of the focused, fearless leader he could be at his best.

So what did the public see at the debate? On one side, a man in full command, who speaks his mind and knows what he believes. On the other, canned lines, grimaces and awkward pauses. Which one looks like a President to you?

The debate gave an ailing Kerry a chance to reposition himself, and in the first face-to-face comparison with his opponent he did what a whole convention couldn't. Pajama Guy responds: Or did it? The new Fox poll is out -- I believe the first one that does not including weekend samples. Looks like if Kerry got a bump from the debate, it's a very small one.
