I am just trying to figure out the kind of evidence you view as valuable. You asked me for polls from reputable sources, like Gallup.

You flatly said you don't accept it (no real reason given, other than it didn't comport with your views). Then you decided that a columnist expressing his opinion on a different topic (i.e. a "poll" of one), was the exact kind of evidence that you accepted. I am just trying to work with you here. Help me help you. Would you feel better if I found a columnist from USA Today who said the debates mattered? I can see why that would matter to you.

Why? Am I not entitled to amusement?

Hello, man without any support for his statements.

Looks like the 3rd debate really did have an impact.

Quote:

The poll, which found Obama at 44 percent and McCain at 43 percent, supports what some Republicans and Democrats privately have said in recent days: that the race narrowed after the third debate as GOP-leaning voters drifted home to their party and McCain's "Joe the plumber" analogy struck a chord.

Good. We agree you were wrong about it not having an impact. We can next agree you were wrong about it helping Mccain. I look forward to our future agreement.

Just so we're clear, the only debate I said had no impact was the 2nd.

NC still hasn't been called (on CNN), but clearly it was more in contention than I thought.

No offense intended Cali, but no one likes a sore winner.

I expressed doubt about Obama winning NC in 2008, and I was wrong by 0.3%.

This year, I'm feeling a little more confident.
