And with a 6 point lead, all we need is a draw.
I think that it went better than my initial impressions were. Bush had some chances to nail Kerry but let them go, and he repeated himself too much. I do think Kerry got in his smug talk down approach. He didn't articulate any really new plans. I think while Bush certainly could have done better, he didn't really cause much change one way or the other. I also believe Kerry opened himself up to some follow up bullets by his strectched of the truth.
Aol poll update, well, it took me 10 min. to bring up the reply box so it's probably changed by now. Bush 51% Kerry 49% out of 52,000 voters. Impossible to reply so from now on I'm just reading. DON'T PANIC EVERYBODY!
