I thought the last debate was pretty even. I thought it was a 1-1-1 record for both of them in the debates overall. Anyway, to clear something up though... That SAME Fox News panel you are talking about as being so biased, they weren't by any means after debate 1 and 2, so I don't think that's fair at all. After debate 1 they all said Bush lost. And even in debate 2, which I thought Bush won, they all said he lost! Only debate 3 did they all give Bush credit.
