I thought he was handing Kerry the death nail of Kerry's campaign, especially when he gave a great short oratory on how Kerry had shamed the members of our coalition dying with us. He had some slam dunks. I could see he got tired. He didn't want to be there anymore. He got out of his zone about 2/3 through. But the good news is...guess when Americans stopped watching!!!
I really think that he could use some substance, perhaps marijuana, to focus him in these debates. Or even cocaine. I'm not kidding. I watch him and he is thinking to himself "What was I going to say besides, um, what was that I was going to say besides, I'M PRESIDENT AND ARREST THIS INCOMPETENT"? Well maybe thats a totally worthless aside. But about 2/3 of the way through, the guy could at least have used a cup of coffee!!!
ok - maybe no drugs - that was a vomit of fingers on the keyboard - but you get my drift - I just think the guy went away. He solidly one the first 50 minutes. THen he had 10 minutes of simply repeating over and over that Kerry can't keep a consistent position. Then he lost all interest and wanted to go home. And I felt for him. Because Kerry sucks and I wouldn't want to be anywhere near him.
