Huh? He kept saying the same thing over and over again (real hard work). The sort of thing a very tired man does.
They are bashing Bush for not replying to Kerry about this (fill in the blank) and not refuting Kerry's claims about that (fill in the blank) and so on and so on. As for Bush saying the same thing, that's a GOOD thing. What do you want him to do, contradict himself like Kerry did?
The debate went well for Bush so far as substance is concerned and that is what should matter most. It will to most people. Think of it this way, Kerry won the evening gown and swimsuit competiton but Bush won the talent competiton and the congeniality award. Those are the two that score highest.
I wish people posting here would stop running Bush and his manager down. The Dims do enough of that as it is. The debate went fine. It wasn't a perfect 10 for Bush but it was far from a Zero.
