| Description | When I watched the first Bush/Kerry debate I thought, long before it was over, that Bush was the clear loser. But the commentators didn't say that until late the next day - the night of the debate they reported it was it a "closely fought", "good points on both sides", "perhaps Kerry slightly more confident". I wondered if the commentators had watched the same debate I'd seen!
Of course by the day after the debate there emerged the "gathering consensus" Bush had lost, as if an obvious truth could finally be safely spoken. |
