"Did he do enough to reverse the last two weeks?" If the pundits and the public decide it was close, regardless of who won, the answer is "No."

2. You are absolutely right! "Could McCain reverse his disastrous slide?"

No. He said a few good things, but his trajectory remains the same...

3. It also looks like the pundits have no idea if McCain's "You don't understand" is going to play well

Obviously, McCain wanted a "There you go again" soundbite, but it doesn't sound like he's going to get it.
