My opinion of Bush's performance was that he didn't deliver a knockout punch, but he didn't have to. As long as he didn't make a gaffe, he was fine.
His hammering home of Kerry's indecision and that the war was crucial for American safety was smart. Bush didn't have to counter Kerry's BS about the Uranium in Niger or WMDS. All he had to do is keep repeating the fact that Kerry saw the same intelligence and voted accordingly.

Good point. Instapundit and some earlier posts have made the same point. Bush came in leading in the polls. Bush is a known. Kerry is not. To win tonight Kerry had to score a knock out. He did not do that. So with a draw Bush wins.
