All the hoopla is nothing but 'noise.' Polls, Scmolls.......if this was reversed, the left would be dissing the credibility of the results. So, Kerry 'won' the debate. Just a good appearance. Bush had the substance. Some callers into talk shows wondered if the Texas poker player was letting Kerry hang himself, Bush provided the rope. Or, a case of "Rope a Dope?"

Hewitt on his show thinks the election will be decided by women, and especially the Security Moms not having confidence in Kerry.

Map as of today:

Strong Kerry (112) Weak Kerry (48) Barely Kerry (78) Exactly tied (4) Barely Bush (64) Weak Bush (105) Strong Bush (127)

I live in Tennessee and according to our polls here, Bush has maintained a 15 point lead for the past 2 monthes. don't understand why they put it in the weak Bush or too close to call column.
