I have elsewhere* talked about how, although Obama won the debate fair and square (and then some), there were numerous opportunities to seriously deck McCain, which cumulatively, might have all-but-clinched the GE, but my question here is: What can we DUers (including a revived DU-Corps) do to prevent the punditocracy (and I don't just mean the overt RWers) from robbing Obama of his solid (if not knockout) victory?

I think that we should all remember 2000, when the polls within the first 24 hours showed a Gore victory, but the press had a collective feeding frenzy about the eyeball rolling. They tried to palm off the first Kerry/Bush debate as a tie or a Bush win, until public reaction was overwhelming, including in polls.
Folks can take a look at RealClearPolitics.com, and see a massive "solid wall of bullshit" of all kinds of columnists, including mainstream, uniting to deny Obama his victory
