Apparently the Associated Press has a time machine, as reflected in this recently posted article:
Thursday night’s meeting at the University of Miami was the first of three Bush-Kerry debates over a two-week period. Neither side was underestimating its importance with a TV audience of 30 million to 40 million expected. Almost a third of people surveyed say the debates will be a deciding factor in how they vote.
The first debate drew the nation’s attention to hurricane-battered Florida and its political importance. Florida swung the presidency to Bush in the disputed 2000 election and could determine whether he wins re-election.
The debates were staged under a rigid set of rules negotiated by the candidates’ representatives to limit spontaneity and opportunities for back-and-forth exchanges.
The aforementioned article was posted at 2:09 PM. It’s amazing that they were able to determine that the first debate drew the nation’s attention to hurricane-battered Florida. I wonder if they have the questions & answers available online somewhere…
