I've only followed debate here. Taking out the DU trolls 25%-30% of Freepers feel the Pres is losing to greater or lesser extent. This is not good news if his goal is to solidfy and grow the small group of undecideds. All seem to agree that Kerry's style is superior, but his content is filled with lies. That may be true, but in debate uncovering lies is the job of the opposing debater. If Pres. Bush can't do that then he can't win the debate.
Well...I have followed the debate on tv as well.
Which give a better picture of how it goes...since it actually shows what is happening....and does not have the issues of naysayers.
Bush has pointed out several times...many times...where Kerry has said something about an issue.....that was not the facts of the issue.
And UNDECIDEDS...are NOT what is found on FR. We are solid conservatives.
SO...just like his convention speech...we wanted more..but it is not aimed at us. Odds are, just like the conventions speech, Bush's message went well with undecideds.
Bush even gave a rebuttal...that forced Kerry to flip flop on what he just said before the President's rebuttal.
ALSO.....Kerry NEVER described what his PLAN was.
We heard he had a plan....but he has yet to give us details.
This debate format is very boooooring after 15 minutes.
Debate was part of my degree in college.
