Listen to this with the mind set of an alcohol sotted union member.

[GreenAccord]

I'm looking thru my copy of the Constitution....Nope. Nothing about the Feds funding subway projects. Dang those founding fathers!

[Enlightiator]

What a bunch of lopsided questions, biased toward Kerry.

[lawgirl]

W needs to take more control. He is allowing this to upset him. He needs to get control.

I just looked at the screen. Yikes, Kerry looks terrible.

W is losing it- yikes he needs to get control. I think he is losing big time.

[pgkdan]

W doing OK, but hasn't hit his stride yet.

He seems nervous and defensive, but as someone else said, the questioning is all biased against him! I'm praying now he'll calm down and start talking directly to the American people.

[firewalk]

kerry says he will kill all those terrorists...

but he won't if other nations
or the un doesn't want him too

[VisualizeSmallerGovernment]

Anybody have a fire station closed near them? Didn't think so- like Clinton's burning churches.

Nobody's going to be drafted either but that doesn't stop people from yammering on about it.

[Howlin]

Kerry is so damn negative; I can't stand to listen to this crap.

[dictatorMA]

I am watching Kerry do to Bush right now what he did to Weld in the Senate election here in MA.. this isnt good.. Kerry is laying out one whopper after another,.. and W is letting him get away with it... example: his trying to pin the body armor thing on Bush!!!
This is not good folks...
We need the President to start fighting this SOB... or it's gonna be a slaughter on the post debate coverage.. Kerry will be back in this thing due to his friends in the media... I'm getting depressed...

[mabelkitty]

Mr. Bush jumped ugly to defend against the Kerry rhetoric.
Again, this is not a campaign stop - this is a debate.
Kerry isnt ANSWERING ANY OF THE QUESTIONS!

[WashingtonSource]

Bush is saying take the war on terror to the enemy.

[Keyes2000mt]

Bush is starting to wander, but the Kerry angry thing isn't working. 3-2, Bush.

[eCrusader]

YEAH!!! CHASE EM DOWN BEFORE THEY HURT US AGAIN!!!

[conservativo]

The reason Kerry's been reading about the intelligence tapes in the papers is because so much of the MSM is liberally-biased!

[lizma]

THIS debate is turning funny already, and it's only been FIFTEEN MINUTES!!

I was a little worried about this but your right. Kerry is a union boob.

BUSH IS KICKIN ASS. But close the borders dear one.

[Shermy]

"He's asked what he would do, and instead criticizes Bush."

That's the story of his campaign.

[mylife]

keery isnt stronger, he is just standing still for once.

Time to give him a knuckle sandwich

[Brimack34]

Lear is giving everything to Kerry. Kerry is lying and the press will say he won. phantom polls will show a close race.
It is all rigged.

[Romish_Papist]

A bit yes, and I don't like it.

[HighlyOpinionated]

Best defense is a good offense. Go Team Bush.

Kerry says we didn't need the tax cut. Did he vote for the tax cut?

Bush: A Pres who hunts! the terrorists down.

(Remember that Kerry is a dog that don't hunt.)
