Republican or Democrat, listen to that fungoid little dickweed? He lies. His assessments are never right:
Dick Morris, October 9:
Bush won even in the domestic-policy part of the debate — a victory that was as unlikely as John Kerry's win in last week's confrontation on foreign issues. By explaining his tax-cut policies and hanging John Edwards' trial-lawyer record around Kerry's neck, he rebutted the Democratic attacks and made his own record visible and showcased it compellingly.
...
Kerry's debating gimmicks, his briefing notes, his talking points all came up against Bush's presidential-ness — and came up short. He was reduced to quibbling while the president focused on national policy and our public interest.
The essential contradiction of Kerry's position on Iraq became clear when Bush demonstrated how facile was the Democrat's hope that he could attract allies or win the war while proclaiming it a mistake, a failure, and a distraction.
...
Bush seemed ready to pounce. When Kerry spoke, it was Bush who crept up behind and rebutted the Democrat's talking points. Even on the question of abortion — where I agree with Kerry and disagree with Bush — the president did a good job of casting himself as a centrist and labeling Kerry as a leftist.
Bush took control of the debate. The president took over. Kerry was reduced to the posture of an outsider, a pretender, an advocate contrasted with the president.

Dick Morris, October 14:
MORRIS: “Bush entered these debates 6 to 7 points ahead and now it’s more or less tied. So, you look at the three debates and ya’ hafta say, putting them together, that Bush lost ...”
Morris then went on to say that, when the debate topics and schedule were first decided upon, Vernon Jordan. Senator Kerry’s advocate, “finessed” James Baker III, Bush’s advocate, into making the third debate about domestic policy.
MORRIS: “Who in their right mind would think any Republican can beat any Democrat in a debate on the economy, health care, Medicare and social security. It’ll never happen in this world or the next ... Baker should have insisted on all debates on all topics and then terror would have dominated all debates.”
