CNN finds a clear victory for Kerry in their instant poll: 53 percent to 39 percent. CBS gives it to Kerry as well: 39 percent to 25 percent. 36 percent called it a tie (must be those “undecided” voters again).
At ABC News, as I said before, its Kerry with 42 percent and Bush with 41 percent. But, those results are slanted due to a greater percentage of respondents being Republican. Edge to Kerry. Most importantly, independents went for Kerry 42 percent to 35 percent for Bush. That’s a good thing.
If these numbers continue, and the feeling that Kerry was the winner of all three debates continues to grow, Bush is in trouble. I’ll try not to be too sad for him.
Later.

It seemed that when Bush declared that it is not the federal government’s place to dictate our behaviors (in response to healthcare question), Mr. Kerry missed a golden opportunity why the federal government can dictate our behaviors when it comes to marriage? The contradiction was huge and glaring.
