The ramifications of the Clarke testimony contiunue to make life tricky for the Bush campaign, but the balancing of the evidence to the 9/11 commission seems to suggest that in the bigger picture, people who were pre-supposed to support the President will likely continue to do so, while those who weren't, will just regard the 'revelations' as confirming what they knew anyway.
Despite an estimated $1m fundraiser in John Kerry's backyard the President didn't exactly have everything his own way today.
"It's a sad situation that you have to close off school because of a fund-raising event," said a local headteacher.
Dick Morris, meanwhile, finds that, according to poll numbers, the latest Bush ads are helping narrow whatever gap had been established by Kerry.
While Bush had a polite, scripted laugh at the expense of his staffers at the Radio and Television Correspondents' dinner the other night, the real fun is sure to come as the campaign unfolds with both candidates fair game for the sharp-as-shrapnel writers over at the Daily Show with Jon Stewart.
Stewart, who has easily taken over the mantle of funniest man on late night television from Letterman and Leno, as well as being a 'primary source' of election news for a disturbingly large number of people, this week signed a four year contract extension with Comedy Central, the cable station.
