Kerry was at his best in terms of style, delivery and stateliness. Bush did not appear to be in command of the facts and did not seem well-prepared. He seemed to miss many opportunities to counter Kerry's arguments and often seemed halting and searching for something to say. At times, he even seemed a bit whiney in his responses. He just wasn't at his best -- Kerry was.
Hopefully, most people will vote based on their cumulative impression of "flip-flop" and their confidence in W's demonstrated ability.

Nope Kerry's relentless "It's all about me" speaking style and vauge posturing platitudes did not sell him to the American voter. You people really need to get beyond the superfical speaking style and look at the substance. From a substanative viewpoint Kerry lost, badly.
