The MSNBC Poll on Yesterday's Debate

[Bumblebee]

Numbers have changed since yesterday, and HRC is actually slightly ahead now in the first two categories and tied with Obama in the third:

It does not matter, really, but because so much was made of these percentages yesterday, just want to update the record.

1. What amazes me is that America thinks that leadership is defined

by dodging questions and lying. Crazy oxymoronic world I'm living in.

3. Prove to me that she lied.

[saracat]

4. She lied about Social Security capps.She gave one answer to Russert

twice and then was witnessed telling a school teacher in Iowa another story.The shoolteacher allowed their name to be used and an AP reporter confirmed the story. She was called on this by Russert who quoted and named his sources. Hillary did not deny it.

6. There were a few questions on the poll:

Leadership qualities and most convincing are rather high for Clinton (not a runaway by any means, but quite high).. the next couple of questions ask who was most rehearsed and who dodged questions the most... those are also high for Clinton...

Dodging and rehearsing to me are omissions.. omissions are falsehoods... falsehoods are lies...

It doesn't make sense why she would have great leadership qualities.

2. Perception Always Trumps Reality...

I thought Al Gore kicked George Bush*'s ass in their first debate and instead of seeing his victory celebrated in the news all I saw was Gore's "sigh"...

I rather have people think I'm smart, rich, and handsome than be smart, rich and handsome...

[monmouth]

5. Biden is only 7% behind Edwards...Yay!!

7. She is still way out ahead on all the negitives.
