I should also add that I am disappointed to see some of the spin coming out of the debates on our side. I read American Spectator on line every morning when I get into work, and every article this morning attempted to explain why Bush won. I never thought of AS as a bunch of Kool-Aid drinkers, but to say that Bush won the debate simply ignores the extremely poor performance of the President, and all our excuse-making and rationalization of the performance won't change the fact that it was bad. We need to be able to acknowledge it and outperform Kerry in every aspect going forward in order to make up for it. Am I being harsh? Absolutely. Do I need to be? Again, absolutely. This election is too important to lose. We are quite literally fighting for our lives in this election and we cannot afford to allow the Dims a single opportunity to get back in the game. The way I see it, the only result of this debate is that sKerry lives to fight another day.
