The comments on this thread are as doom and gloom as I’ve ever read. The repeated MSM pounding a loss in debate didn’t work in 2000, 2004 and won’t work in 2008. Palin still has her debate this Thursday. That will uptick any and all polls. In addition, the McCain camp will have an Oct surprise which will pound the point of Rev Wright/Weatherman Underground etc. 2 more debates are still to come for POTUS as well.
I don’t think the debate was lost. I think it was largely irrelevant - other issues dominate the news (and rightly so), and they do not play to McCain’s advantage.
If Palin can use the right talking points in her debate, she’ll do fine. Don’t know if this will generate any uptick.
Yes, McCain still has a chance, after all he is trading at 42 on intrade. But the main variable is the economy, not debates or attack ads.
If conservatives accept the inevitability of a Zero victory, then the libs have already won. I won’t accept any such outcome until election night if we should be so unfortunate. It’s not even October yet, so the people that are panicking should do something to help out (if they aren’t already)...if not for the old guy, then for Sarah. I admit it doesn’t look pretty, but that’s no excuse to give up. The Zero must go down.

I thought it was one more POTUS debate
