I am praying too - I know that God asked us to come to Him in prayer. I'm praying that God will lead President Bush tonight, and that he will be able to speak clearly and concisely. I am praying more, though, the President Bush will win the election. This debate is part of that, but it is not all...

I don't think I can watch though - I get too nervous and upset. I may have to depend on FR to keep me up to date

I am a wreck. I am surrounded by a bunch of liberals who are making me crazy.

Yep. He had an Op-ed in the SD Union Tribune the other day about how the majority of the mud-slinging in this campaign is coming from HIS side, not the President's. (ours.) I was kind of... amazed. I guess he's one of those "conservative liberals" that come around as much as the chupacabra.

Let me make a prediction.

Bush will win, but the media will ask, "Was it too much too late."

I think the new, twin front-end servers will mean everything will be fine.

I gave up trying halfway through the VP debate..



We shall see but it was crawling at a snail's pace during the VP debate in my neck of the woods... I did like Ken5050 and actually went and watched it in another room.....

You've forgotten the dumbing down of the American student over the last um, 30 years...!

Here is to hoping you are wrong!

I see a lot of youth today who see the liberal left as the "establishment"

I agree that W won the first. The numbers of lies told by sKerry should be counted against him... but I realize the MSM won't do that. How can you have the best style if it consists of that many lies?

He needs to act as if there is nothing to lose. Hang Kerry with Kerry's record. Repeat his words back to him. Forget answering the debate questions - go after Kerry's own words and beat him with them.

Man am I nervous!

Don't know about you guys but my nerves are shot. I won't be watching the debate live but I will be supporting Bush in spirit. I hope he takes it to Kerry and 'undresses' him in front of the public.

I'll check FR before deciding if I want to watch the replay.

Let's keep a count of how many times W uses the "L" word. I predict 7 times during the evening, at least 1 in the very first question he fields.

Uh, is "L word" liar?

That is Kerry, not W.

W is too, way too much of a gentleman to have descended into F'n gutter.

May need to do so tonight, methinks.

All I know is that we better hear about Kerry's liberal record until we barf. No defense this time.

Yes! And his spineless flip-flopping on the war in Iraq...for EVERY declaration Kerry spouts about Iraq, have a previous quote of his contradicting it. That should be easy.

I really want to see Kerry get pounded tonight.

He and Edwards are becoming more arrogant and intolerable lately. They need to be put in their place.
Tonight, but most of all on election day!

President Bush and Senator John F. Kerry met tonight in a "town hall" type debate. The concensus, agreed to quickly after the debate, was that President Bush did nothing to help his cause. In fact, he may have damaged it because of an obvious failure to connect with the intelligent questioners, who, although "undecided", displayed a canny and thorough understanding of the issues.

Senator Kerry on the otherhand, surprised everyone and put on a display not seen since that of former President Bill Clinton in a similar setting in Richmond in 1992. Kerry was quick but sincere, and, for the first time, he displayed a very active sense of humor. A warm feeling for him quickly overcame the audience, especially when he informed the audience, in an almost shy revelation for the first time, that he had served in Vietnam and had numerous medals.

He also mentioned, in response to each and every question, that he had a plan.

Some media personalities wondered if there was really any reason to hold a third presidential debate.
