I say this while assiduously trying not to cast aspersions on any person or outlet in particular but if you beat a particular drum for months; see a particular event as vindication for doing so; write piles of panicky copy as a result; then see polling contradict you... ... maybe take a knee?

One poll? Who cares. A trend over a week? Then I'll start to care. New Democrats making terrible speeches is nothing new.

I believe most people didn't watch the debate and made their minds up before the debate ever occurred.

CNN should take a poll about how CNN did at the debate

At this point, I feel the Dems should seriously fokus on the House and Senate. If we kan win those a lot of that Projekt 2025 fuckery kan be stopped or diminished. I kan tolerate another Trump presidency with there's a kongressional speed bump

I think you’re missing the point. He was behind and needed the debate to put him ahead. He can’t execute on any of the things he needs to do to overcome the gap with a sociopathic convicted felon. That’s a problem.

Is that headline written from a timeline where "post debate conventional wisdom" is not "lol, debates don't matter"?

The NYT won the debate, and they will soon have the Sienna poll they want out. They will stop when Trump is sworn in.

They've found their emails story and are going to run with it, even if it destroys us all.

They will publish the stories twice as hard until the polling shows they were correct

like everything else aside it is simply not a good look to self-assuredly write "xyz dooms the campaign" headlines 70 minutes after the event ends, before the effects are known, and it casts doubt on your coverage and your framing
