A few points I have observed so far....
GW has seemed a bit short of words a few times. Too many "uhhh"s for my liking. But at least he has made a real effort to only make statements that can be backed up with facts.... which brings me to another observation-
Kerry has already "flip-flopped" at least one major time, contradicted himself in a major way, and told more than one bold-face lie that will easily be contradicted. OF course, the MSM will politely ignore these facts.
By the way - what "nuclear" facilities did GW supposedly instruct our troops to ignore when we invaded Iraq? According to Kerry, the only building our boys have protected in Baghdad is the oil ministry.
Also convenient how sKerry tried to avoid the "voted for it before I voted against it" problem - but GW reminded him.
Or how about Kerry's denial that he said "I will have the troops home within 6 months". He tried to say that he had prefaced that statement with "After our objectives have been met"..... Hasn't GW promised to bring our troops home as soon as our mission is complete? Ugh...
Or how about his flip-flop on the "wrong war at the wrong time" and that the war was a mistake statements - He first repeats that the war in Iraq was a mistake, then only a few minutes later, flops to say that our soldiers have NOT died for a mistake.
President Bush - excellent closing statements - practiced, measured, articulate and on target.
