"Thank God we're out of the debate cycle."
Yes! I think it was a mistake to agree to three debates. All and all I think the president suffered serious losses from these debates. The Pres and his advisors generally do so well in other things, I don't know where they went wrong. I think if the pres had listed to some of what people say here on freerepublic he would have burried Kerry. He needed to get partisan and get personal.
He needed to say,
"look, Senator, this is the 3rd time I've had to correct someting you've said tonite. Now are you going to be strait with the American people or not?"
I think the biggest misque "W" had was letting Kerry slide on the OVERTIME matter. He needed to tell everyone KERRY was the deciding VOTE, and he did not make it.
