here are some interesting poll results from former presidential debates. All from cnn
Debate 1
McCain 38 Obama 51
Bush 37 Kerry 53
Bush 41 Gore 48
Debate 2
McCain 30 Obama 54
Bush 45 Kerry 47
Bush 49 Gore 39
Debate 3
McCain 31 Obama 58
Bush 39 Kerry 52
Bush 44 Gore 46
So compared to the two debates so far this election we have
Debate 1
Romney 67 Obama 25
Debate 2
Romney 39 Obama 46
One interesting thing to note here is that Romney's victory in debate 1 is the biggest margin CNN has ever recorded in these types of polling. A big win like that can cost an election when it is this close, many consider the second Bush/Gore debate a game changer for Bush and that was only a 10 point margin.
Another thing to note here is that Kerry won every debate with Bush, two of which by pretty large margins, however he failed to win the election. In many ways this election is reminiscent of the Bush/Kerry campaign as Obama has pretty much taken the Bush playbook and ran with it. Also, there are some incredible similarities between Kerry and Romney.
The last thing to note from these numbers is that Romney is definitely a much better debater than McCain. How in the world did he lose his primary against him? |
how can you have 67% to 39%?
The math doesn't add up governor.

I fixed it, Obama was 25, sorry
