That's good. The debate doesn't matter.
I'm very relieved.

Still saddens me people think Kerry "won." By what criteria if after listening you still think Bush would do a better job? Doesn't seem like it could be on substance.

the purpose of the debate is not to win the debate, it's to win the election.
Bush won the debate handily if you have it in proper perspective. He stood his ground while kerry flailed away. Kerry came across as mean and negative, bush came across as composed and presidential.

Bush was too diplomatic, Lehrer was too biased, and Kerry was too stupid to realize that his entire Iraq plan is DOA... because it is based on a lie- that France, Germany, Russia or China would ever do anything but veto involvement in Iraq. The bribed don't stick their necks out, Mr. Kerry. So, your plan for Iraq is just so much dust in the wind. Perhaps you can think of another, after you know the outcome, of course.

I still don't understand the glee coming from the libs and the gloom from the Republicans! I found it very clear that Kerry came across as a Pre 911 candidate. Bush came across as a Post 911 candidate! Kerry said he would give Iran Nuke Fuel for crying out loud. Has anyone forgot N Korea and the results of such a decision?

LOL! Bush still leads.
Bush did a fine job. He stated his positions in a clear manner.
My wife put it best, "Bush is talking to us", "Kerry is trying to convince us."

Much like the first debate in '84 was not good for Reagan, but did not change a lot of minds, it looks as if tonight will not shift too many votes away from GWB though his performance was not great. I was surprised at Bill Schneider's numbers, but very pleased that despite Kerry's perceived "victory" tonight, a majority of those who say he did well still trust Mr Bush more on the Iraq issue.

Kerry made flip flops, lies, and errs. Bush played it safe. It ain't over until the press, talk radio, and the Internet bloggers tear this debate apart. Add a few points for Bush by the end of the week.
To: flashbunny
Your vote and mine are not the ones to worry about. It's the undecided voters who may have a completely different perspective. And to be honest, I'd stop short of saying Bush looked more "composed"...he was clearly flustered at several times in the debate.

Hopefully most people feel this way...the internals look good for Bush...Lord, please hear my prayer.
To: skaterboy
It will get better as the Kerry mistakes are driven home.That's the down side of glibly quoting a bunch of "facts".

Is this a phone poll? I do not trust an immediate response poll, especially with people watching the media do their Kerry won" spin, then turning around answering a poll question about the debate. What else are they going to say? Lets wait a few days to see where the numbers are.
To: sinkspur
I can breathe a big sigh.
I about lost it tonight.
But my word Dubya, you need some coaching!

No, he doesn't. This race is OVER as far as who is going to vote for who.

Just to play devil's advocate, Kerry did have 46% people say the debate gave them a more favorable impression of him. Besides "winning" the debate, that's really the only other thing I see strongly in his favor.
