The gang at Fox News were almost bouncing in the anchor chairs this morning.
Kerry has been put into Han Solo-esque carbon freezing until next Wednesday.
Now: what are the consequences? Probably not an outright flip of a specific election or elections, nothing like the 2002 Paul Wellstone "memorial service" essentially handed Minnesota, and probably Missouri, to the GOP. Harold Ford--who by all accounts was losing anyway--quickly distanced himself in Tennessee. James Webb in Virginia, who has embraced Kerry in the past, may have a more difficult time, especially with Virginia's substantial military and military-family population.
The real effect may be psychological, something to get the GOP moving in the last week and get people generally in the polls. The GOP base has been looking for something to get them moving. This may be it.
