If we are guesstimating based on those facts, then it is CLEARLY a huge Obama WIN !

If more Republicans were sampled than is representative of the electorate, it would imply an even greater than 7% victory for Obama - certainly not a draw.

Is Blitzer really that inept, or is he just getting a little senile?

taken to the reporters' woodshed and bawled out by someone who knows what the fuck they're doing.

this is why I was not happy about Candy doing the moderating..but, she turned out to be great.

What would it take for blitzer to report something real after a Dem won a Debate? He pulled this shit last week with Biden.

I lasted less than 5 minutes.

They all could not get around admitting the President did real well, but one block head came up with this "but, we REALLY don't know how this will impact things" and the rest of the dingbats followed suit with that frame. No pick a winner like the first debate, just babbling around trying to say they don't know how it will impact the election while trying to avoid saying the President killed it.
