I got stunned Friday when I polled my high school students regarding the debate. They said that Kerry was a better debater, but that they thought that Bush is a better/stronger/clearer leader - by a 9 to 1 margin. I've been teaching for 11 years and teens tend to be liberal - but they are also quite honest and good at spotting phonies. Again - I was stunned!

Great, lets hope the parents vote for Bush.
Thanks for being a teacher, especially a conservative teacher.

Newsweek is reporting different results.
This will continue to be an issue until and unless GWB kicks ass in the next two...he really did not do a good job on the first debate.

Hey wait a minute. Carl Cameron says the Kerry folks are excited about the "dramatic increase" in Kerry's likability numbers.
Yea, it's pathetic when they spin Kerry's likability numbers as going up up up, while still several points behind Bush who was not in top form and came off as tired and irritated at times during the debate. What would that number have been if Bush were in tip top shape?

The left wing fascist media will continue to push Traitor Kerry as the debate winner and the people's choice. They will do or say anything to get an their hate American agenda in place.

Yeah - it can be a bit "lonely." I always get a good laugh when lefty teachers find out that I'm a conservative - AFTER they've grown to like me. Without exception, they say "But...you seem like such a nice person!" Does not compute!!! Does not compute!!! BOOOOM!!!

There's a NewsTweak and ARG poll today showing the race close. I am a bit concerned, but first off--Reagan lost his first re-election debate, too. Second, I was at Bush's appearance in Cuyahoga Falls, OH today and it was great! I couldn't see a damn thing, but I heard W and it was great! Third, the next debate is a "town hall" format, and Bush does better at these.

I was at the President's appearance back in February here in Charleston and you described the same experience I had. I could not see a thing but he connected well with the crowd. I will try and post some pictures of the event.

I'm looking forward to the tuesday night match up between Cheney and Edwards.This should be a real standup fight.Cheney is more eloquent than "W" and has an unmatched command of the issues,Edwards is also an excellant speaker and may beat Cheney on likeability.It should be real fun to watch.

A 25 year old friend of mine - a 9/11 convert to conservatism - was having a recent political discussion with her uncle. He, a conservative, was stunned to learn that she was conservative too - "But, but, you have pink hair," he said, referring to some streaks she had put in her hair. Love it.

Source for that supposed number? Even the highly suspect Pro Kerry Newsweek pool shows Kerry's unlikablity number at the same place.

Sure but it is NEWSWEEK. Funny how the "poll" just exactly matches why Elanor Cliff wanted it to say. I wonder why that is? So who do we belive Newsweek or CNN/Gallup?

Thanks for posting this. Now all the "chicken littles" from the live debate thread can breathe easier.
Actually, I coined a term for this.
"McCainism" A mental defect where the poster feels the need to constantly run down his own side while never pointing out the gross flaws in the opposition. Mental defect caused by the fraudulent belief that being hyper critical of their own side shows poster to be wise and intellectually sophisticated. Cure: Massive does of mockery for their doom and gloom pomposity.

Did you actually READ the article before you posted this? The data in the CNN/Gallup poll directly contradicts the opinion you state here. So who am I suppose to believe Newsweek or CNN/GALLUP? Why is it that BAD news for Bush is treated like gospel but good news is mocked and derided by a certain segment of the Freeper populations? Why is that?

Edwards is also an excellant speaker and may beat Cheney on likeabilityHe is a smarmy little know it all who has never done a useful thing in his life and it shows. He is exactly what you would expect in a liberal trial lawyer.
