The after debate analysis on Fox left me mystified. The analysts pronounced Kerry the winner and scolded Bush for a poor performance. Were they watching the same debate as I?
You're not the only one. One commentator guessed they might have taken the "Fox is conservative" criticism too much to heart. I never thought Fox was conservative -- though conservatives get a fair shake overall; I wish it were!
The Fox pundits were clueless.
I was shocked they didn't pick up on the part of the debate that is highlighted in this article (amongst other telling unappealing Kerry statements).
The part where Kerry announced he could tell by looking at those in the room that they would not be affected by a tax increase on those making over $200,000. On the Live Thread we were in shock that he would be so elitist. Maybe the Fox panel thought this was an acceptable way for a politician to address the peasants.
