No candidate has ever won after losing all three debates!

Ive heard this all night!

If shrub lost all three, can we assume shrub is toast?

1. We can't assume anything with these people in power.

[SharonAnn]

2. Well, no candidate has been inaugurated before when he lost.

[Zynx]

4. Hayes was.

3. er... there aren't always three debates

that's a silly non-statistic.

5. Isn't that a reason Shrub didn't want 3 debates?

I think this is one of the reasons Kerry wanted 3 debates@ He gave Shrub every opportunity to have what he wanted, and the idiot still lost!

It doesn't matter if there were 2 or 3 debates. The fact is Shrub LOST THEM ALL!

[Fozzledick]

6. BTW, no candidate from Massachusetts named John has ever lost

John Adams

John Quincy Adams

John Kennedy

John Kerry!

7. And the funny thing is that three different Bushs showed up

First we had the total moron in debate 1
Furious George in debate 2
Smarmy George in debate 3 (though I noticed his smirk was fading by the halfway point when Kerry was continually pounding him, quite masterfully).

Did you notice that Kerry spent a lot more time looking into the camera than W? And, did you notice that Bush was trying Kerry's trick of debate 2 by trying to make direct eye contact with Kerry, but it wasn't workin'. Besides I don't think Kerry would respond to that alpha male stuff anyway. Bush can't help himself, he's all limbic system, no frontal lobes.

10. No Democrat has ever won without 5 southern states

so let us be careful. There is a first time for everything. We of course should keep working hard.

11. Never assume ANYTHING

Terra-alerts, botched elections, and outright cancelled elections are STILL a very real possibility.

The rats are cornered and the word "desperate" doesn't even begin to illustrate what they'll try to pull in the next 2 1/2 weeks.
