If you have a few minutes, this is really interesting.

1. I agree with everything but the Gore part...

Gore clearly won all three debates and really didn't have a big gaff. The conservative media, however, spun the Bush/Gore debates like a laundrymat drier on steroids. They worked hard to find something to complain about Gore like his sighing. They could have just as easily have concentrated on Bush's blink-a-mania. And Gore let them do it, frankly. It was a more peaceful time, but Gore did not stand up and fight the lies about him hard or fast enough. And he won the popular vote anyway. So I think the spin on Gore's debate results is inaccurate.

2. I didn't like that either, but on balance it was pretty good. n t

3. That part about Kennedy scaling back his campaign makes ya smile....

.... and lest anyone think that's a referecent to McCain, remember a week ago, it was Barack Obama who was going to have a lighter than usual stump schedule.

But then again, John McCain HAS NOT scaled back his campaign, so surely no one thought I was talking about him. lol
