How about my tag line?
It was not only during the debate that President Bush was connecting to people in the audience, but did you notice that after the debate was over W went immediately to the audience, shaking hands, posing for pictures, smiling and talking? While I noticed Kerry first went up to the moderator and talked to him for a while. Then he talked to his wife. And FINALLY managed to mingle after that.
This isn't really a big point, debate-wise, but I love the warmth the President has one-on-one with people. While Kerry is just the opposite.

My 19 y/old daughter watched the debate last night. She has not seen a lot of Kerry on TV before. We have talked about politics and she hears talk radio when I have it on. But last night was the first time she has seen Kerry speak for any lenght of time. She was appalled. It confirmed what she had known intellectually, but this time with a viseral gut feeling. She in her gut, she knew he was a slime ball.
Good tag line but I think we need something with even more fire to get some attention from those 'slackers' who can still be converted!!!!
"that jaw thing with Bush"
Love W, but that is starting to get on my nerves, is it a nervous tic? I hope not, maybe he's having a problem with his jaw. But its better than that blinking idiot on Tuesday, remember goldilocks and his morse code signaling with his eyes, "help me, help me, help me!" I don't know who thought that up, but it sure was funny......
Your wife sounds like a wonderfully smart woman, crushkerry.
Many women that I know (predominantly Democrat) in Prince George's and Montgomery Counties in Maryland don't care for Kerry. Seeing him as a pampered gigolo. The droning, boring, evil slimy spawn of Bill Clinton.
And yes, more than a few have mentioned Kerry's 'Snaky lick thing'. From their point of view. A completely creepy turn-off.

Ohhhhh, my head.... so what happened last night and why am I so hungover?! ;-)
This was excellent. Well done!

Your wife was right. Kerry was BORING.
What a perfect metaphor for the Stone-age press’ distorting the truth for all the world to see. Just like last weeks debate where the moderator wanted to become the story and asking anti-Bush question after question. Starting Yaaawn with, “would you be a better President?” What’s he going to say no? Then Mr. Hate your guts President, explain your failed War! Here in a Town hall debate Charlie Glibson helps Yaawn clarify one question and then tries to corner President Bush with Charlie’s “follow-up” he had been laying in wait for.
The proud Republican looked at the Ratherforged Danosaur holding the Gate with all of his weight, trying to pin Capitalism in it’s box. spewing its vile flames. The young strapping cowboy sized up the situation and decided if your are going to keep that Gate closed, I will turn my steed out the Internets Gate and talk to the American People directly. He has those rare instincts of a normal person to say, if your not going to let me get my message out; then I will go talk to my people my way. What a perfect metaphor for the dying mediaCrats of the Old NY Times and ABDNCBS and W’s way of leading.
And what a message he gave! Not only did he defeat the media, he fileted Yaawn with the skill of a Champion Bass Fisherman. He turned to the people with arm extended and said, “Tell Tony Blair, “your going it alone”, tell Berlusconi, “your going it alone”, tell the President of Poland Kwasniewski, “your going it alone”..You Can’t Lead a coalition that way!” Game, set.....
That was a rhetorical moment for all times.
This debate will go down as one of the Great Debates of this country. President Bush not only defeated and exposed Yaaawn Tax & Carry for the Liberal he is but exposed the press to the American People. He was masterful in his delivery and his answers were complete and from the heart. This President has one of the most complex minds that has occupied that office since Lincoln. I would say Ronald Reagan, but Yaaawn seems to mention RR at least 10 times per debate trying to sound Conservative even though he hated Reagan.
From that moment on you could see that Kerry was done. Searching for ideas and numerous times unable to come up with words. His answers were disjointed syntax and not on topic add to that his turning from the audience to lecture and dress down The President of The United States on his failed policies was way over the top.
His worst answer of all, was his answer on abortion. The beautiful young lady with the angelic face asked a question from her heart about the need to end Partial Birth Abortion? Yaawn attempts to answer it by saying he was in Vietna....no that he was a Catholic and an Alter Boy? What does being an alter boy have to do with abortion?? He fished for Dingbats work with Planned Abortionhood and then after W answered it so clearly and compassionately, Yaawn has to have a follow-up?? Why would anyone need to have a follow-up on abortion?? Abortion is not an issue that you debate with your mind. Either you believe it is a baby and death or you don’t.
What a night and what an answer to Prayers. GW showed the country and the world why we Bushbots love him like only one other President, his mentor; who must have that twinkling little eye and that rosy smile, President Ronald Wilson Reagan.
Pray for W and Our Troops
The best part of that was Charlie Gibson was trying to get the President to sit down and Bush basically said "screw you" and proceded to get in Kerry's face.
EXACTLY I wish someone would call him on his so called PLAN!!
If he really does have a plan then by waiting to share it HE HIMSELF is costing American lives!! What a Jerk!
CD
ROTFL!
And I'll tell you another thing that makes me mad. I'm mad at the Democrats for giving us such an Idiot as the only other choice. We know the dems will vote for anyone besides Bush, and by chance if he does win we end up with him. The least the dems could have done is give us someone that if he does win would be acceptable, someone like a Zell Miller or someone with his caliber.
I sincerly apologize for ever having questioned your sincerity.
You are a great American!
-- A total lie from the left which I hope she does not believe. We're spending TONS of money on AIDS relief in Africa and education.
" I've also noticed that jaw thing with Bush, I don't remember him ever having it before the last couple of weeks or so. I hope everything is ok with him."
He had it during the 2000 election. It comes and goes. Probably a nervous habit.
Which I will take any day over that sickly white tongue flicking in and out.
i thought President Bush gave more money to AIDS relief than President Clinton... i was under the impression the President was big on funding AIDS relief... i was surprised when Cheney didn't really set that straight... perhaps what i thought is not true...
