CNN Poll Gives Kerry 5:1 Lead as Winner of Friday Debate

With just a hair under 300,000 now having voted, just 20% say Bush won the debate, while 79% say Kerry.

That actually surprises me on a few scores. For one, Bush usually gets a lot of credit just for not peeing on himself. For another, his performance tonight - while pure hubris and smirking bully - was better than last week's by far.
