Gallup poll
53% said Kerry won the debate. This is a far cry from who will be elected.
The sample was 52-44 fr Bush prior to the debate. This is purely informational as no post-debate preference was asked.
As the sample was consisted of more Bush supporters than Kerry ones, it is no surprise that Bush is still favored on every question except who won the debate.
The deeper spin of the poll by Democrats could use the "over-sampling" of Bush angle.
Unfortunately, this oversample matches the polling results of Gallup so the poll is representative of the country at that point.
There is deep concern for Kerry as he did not persuade any of these voters that he had better psotions.
