Kerry Seeks Edge on Bush Body Language After Debacle
Kerry portrays Bush as flustered in the first debate while Bush aides push a longer term attack. Instant polls show Kerry favored by viewers but no shift in Nov 2 voting. Both sides rush ads and surrogates as they shape second impressions.

Kerry camp picks up momentum in early polls
Overnight polls show Kerry leading Bush as voters weigh the first debate. An ABC News poll puts Kerry at 45 percent to 36 for Bush with 17 percent tied, while a CNN Gallup USA Today post-debate survey finds 53 percent saying Kerry did the better job. Analysts warn instant polls have higher error and note past trends where first‑debate winners faltered later. A town hall debate in St Louis Friday and a Tempe showdown on Oct 13 could shift focus to domestic policy.
