No she isn't a Kerry supporter. She is quite conservative. She just thinks that Bush is looking like he is clueless and Kerry is coming off as "intellectual" and commanding.
To: TheLion
Kerry's screwing up now. He's talking about Vietnam. He saying how you have to separate the warrior from the war. LOL. I guess that means we don't call them Jenghis Khan.
Now, Dubya's hitting his points well. "He's saying you can't follow a leader who keeps changing his position"
To: no more apples
if Pres. Bush doesn't go home and BITE HIS PILLOW TO SHREDS BECAUSE OF ALL THE LIES KERRY IS TELLING, he's a far better man than I already imagine him to be! That's been his style his whole career. He always holds his tongue when being lied about and tries to do the right thing.
To: lawgirl
Yep. The President is calming down which is good for his presence. Kerry has nothing to say other than his attacks on the President, and Bush is jabbing back fairly well now.
50 minutes to go. Can Bush drive it home?

Kerry asked specifics on Iraq.
He doesn't give them.
His specifics are based on reactions of theories that he has not yet articulated.

F'n says "I have a plan" like he wants to emulate Martin Luther King's "I have a dream" speech. He is utterly pompous and condescending.

The Pottery Barn rule is
You break it, you bought it. (or ...you own it.)
What the hell is "You break it, you fix it?" Is this like the Brady Bunch when they tried to glue the vase?
What a putz.

W is just taking this debate ... no contest ... makes me proud to say he is MY president ... don't falter W ... keep it strong ... God Bless America and God Bless my President!!!!!!!! I agree. Kerry is contradicting himself all over the place.
Now he's talking about how he will provide better support for the troops who are fighting what he calls " the wrong war, at the wrong time". Incredible.

I switched from TV to netradio, what a difference.
I can hear President Bush is starting to get his stride.
To: A Citizen Reporter
Does Kerry have any plan besides this so-called Summit?

Kerry's statement about military bases in ME was absolutely nuts. Doesn't he know we must have a military presence in that area.

Kerry sounds like he is throwing out every crazy Michael Moore conspiracy theory he can think of.

Ooooooo Kerry just said Bush mislead TONIGHT................
To: NYC Republican; All
even though Bush is right on the substance, Kerry stil comes across as far more confident and "persuasive" right now than Bush.
Bush seems a bit intimidated. Bush still has time, but if he doesn't turn this around, then Kerry's going to benefit quite a bit from this debate.
