Stage presence and body language. The "experts" underestimate it at their peril. As far as tonight's debate went, this was Kennedy vs. Nixon all over again. And guess who was Kennedy? :)

Actually, "many" of the pundits I've seen have been neutral to pro-Obama.
Especially after the viewer reactions came in.

1. Most members of the media are saying Obama did no worse than tied.
Yes, a few say Obama lost, but many are being very favorable to him.

4. It's getting later, the pundits are getting nicer, and
while the stage presence and body language works, the intelligence shined. THAT is what people should concentrate on.

5. Obama was calm, poised, focused and stately.
In other words, presidential.

7. The pundits see it with different eyes than the regular people.
