Debate prediction

I think that it is unavoidable that Bush will be judged the winner of tomorrow's (today's?) debate. State TV will judge our glorious leader the well deserved winner of the debate against that mighty goliath John Kerry.

At any rate, I think that this is going to largely square with public sentiment and Bush will get a 2-3% bump which would make any competent DNC leader consider pulling Kerry's funding and putting it into Senate races. The general assumption that the DNC should make is that Bush will win. Democrats need to do better in the Senate than the -4 seat change that I'm currently predicting. The last thing we need is an unaccountable Bush with a Congress that will be a rubber stamp.

It's time for Democrats to admit that the Kerry experiment has been a colossal failure and that the Dems' foray into strategic voting blew up in their faces.
