But I wonder if it lasts.. or do people change their minds during the primary, when the candidates are out there pressing the flesh and people actually have to vote for a particular candidate.
I think that when the talking heads pick the "winner" of a debate, it naturally gives that candidate more exposure -- and more exposure gives the candidate a larger chance to put forth and expand their ideas.

I don't think that it's just the debates killing Rick Perry, although I'm sure it's not helping him. I think this thing last weekend about that Pastor making a comment about Romney's religion -- Perry should have been the first one to distance himself. I don't think it resonates with people when you start criticizing someone's religion. From what I'm reading, Perry is having some problem with his facts too. And Romney has been gaining points by pointing out some of the problems with his policies in Texas. I think people are put off by his legislating the HPV vaccine (even though I personally think it is a good idea).
