Bush 42%
Kerry 37%

Gotta love fair and balanced. The spin from the paid for media shills, I mean "political analysts" here in San Diego was it was a tie, and Bush looked great.

Can we bury the "Liberal Media" thing yet? Its rotting corpse is really stinking up my living room.

2. What a joke
Just remember that poll last year.
Fox viewers are the LEAST informed people in America.

6. Well, they're in a different position than CNN
CNN can be biased, because people are under the illusion that they're "more fair," than FOX, but FOX already is suffering from credibility and the news of the amazing lack of intellect of its audience -- they HAVE to call it for Kerry, because it was obvious it was Kerry.

14. They said that, according to their fake poll
But AFTER the debate, Greta, CC and that Dukakis woman with the kick-ass voice were on with Bill Kristol, and it didn't look too good for Bush -- it was definitely more Kerry positive.

That said, I have no idea how they spun it this morning. I don't make it a habit of watching FOX! :)

7. More pro bush media spin from our local paper...
The San Diego Union.

excerpt:

Tellingly, the president never wavered from his decision to go to war in Iraq, and the Democratic challenger certainly did nothing to clarify his multiple positions on the conflict.

Translation: FLIP FLOPPER FLIP FLOPPER HE'S A FLIP FLOPPER!!!!!

Bush, by contrast, lived up to his reputation for delivering plain talk, devoid of rhetorical flourishes.

Yeah he did sound like a dumbshit who was in way over his head didn't he?
