Official Debate thread

I agree that Bush did better tonight than he did in the first debate, but only in the fact that he didn't stumble over his words so badly. He seemed to me to be on the defensive. While some reported him as being more animated or passionate, I found him to be very defensive on just about everything. Seemed like he was almost yelling at some of the people who asked questions...

I am no fan of Kerry, but he is in no uncertain terms a much better debater than Bush. He carries himself well, speaks eloquently, and stays more calm and in control. He also tells the average Joe American exactly what he wants to hear. Tax the rich, better schools, better health care, blah blah blah blah blah...

Usually the challenger has to knock out the champ in order to win. I don't know if that's the case in this election...

My two cents on the issue... LOL
