Bush is obviously flustered.....he knows he lost. Sorry, boys. Shrubby is done if he keeps this up. Any american of reasonable intelligence will see that Kerry is the only possible choice.

I hope to Darwin you're right. I couldn't stand to see some people I know gloating after having Bush win again.

Ooh...Kerry just accused Bush of fuzzy math. The 2000 campaign just boomeranged back.

I haven't seen a whuppin' like this on TV since the LAPD mistook Rodney King for a pinata.

"It's not credible, it's just not credible." Bush is now coming across like a whiny little bitch. In the immortal words of Ben Stern, "You're a moron! Shut up and sit DOWN!"

Yes, he is not a skilled debator, especially against a seasoned politician like Kerry -- already knew that, so where is the news that is supposed to change my mind in favor of Kerry?

Okay. We've moved into the Twilight Zone. A Democrat is pushing the Fiscal Responsibility button, and Kerry is acting competent. What's going on?

I know a lot of people will take Bush's shouting to mean that he's all passionate and shit, and thus he won. The question is how many of these people aren't the people who would say that Bush won even if he started eating a baby in the middle of the debate.

He doesn't perform well under pressure. Presidents NEED to perform well under pressure. HE's been under pressure for four years. Do you claim he has performed well? This is just encapsulated somewhat. Heh.
