Two things
1. Debate -- a stalemate, possibly slight edge to Kerry on presentation. Bush was better than the first debate. Tried harder. Bush comes across better in these townhall meetings. Kerry's arrogance and stiffness sometimes came across ... but the biggest issue is Kerry doesn't seem as authoritative as he does behind a podium. Kerry is pompous; he needs a podium as an asset. Bush on the other hand is better at mixing with people.
Regarding content, clearly Bush is the winner because John Kerry doesn't know what the fuck he's talking about. A Kerry administration would be like a second Carter Administration. It would be the never-held Mondale Administration. Do people realize that?
Democrats are telling us that not only that they haven't learned anything from Sept. 11, but that they haven't learned anything from from the administration of Ronald Reagan, either.
I keep going back to Michael Moore's telling decision to not use the visuals in F911 of Sept. 11. He thought it was a dignity thing, but I think it demonstrated willful blindness -- a refusal to see what is plain and obvious.
2. The AFL-CIO ought to be very careful about the recent bout of thuggishness at Republican campaign headquarters. You don't really want to start this country down the road of electoral violence, do you? Maybe you do. Don't be surprised if you don't like how this ends up for you.
