No long play-by-play thoughts on this debate, and a proper debate it was, you can surely find those in a million different places, just little bite sized thoughts…
President Bush gets wound up far too easily, he looked like a child throwing a tantrum when pleading with Charlie Gibson, the moderator, so he could answer one of John Kerry’s rebuttals. He also walks around hunched over, very monkey like, dragging his knuckles along.
And there are internets??? Have I been wasting my time on this one? How do I get to another one? Is it the matrix?
John Kerry made a good standing last week in giving people a reason to get behind him other than the “Anyone But Bush” stance, and this week he built upon it, and laid a verbal smackdown on the stuttering President in the process.
President Bush again stood by the “Saddam was a unique threat” speech, Kerry again went on the offensive with the “rushing into war” comeback. I wish now I had taken notes, but it was more of the same issues they brought up last week, and next week will no doubt be more of the same…
If this was a boxing match, Kerry would be up 2 rounds to zero, Bush is bit wobbly, the legs are about to go but he isn’t down and out just yet… Or is it like Mortal Kombat, Kerry is Sub-Zero, Bush is his opponent stumbling around just waiting for the “FINISH HIM!” call before Kerry rips his head (and spine (if he has one)) clean from his body, that would make interesting live TV.
Next week is the final round before the election and John Kerry is the current leader as far as polls go (if you believe electoral vote)
In Bush’s own words, the Presidency is about who can lead, who can get things done… He’s done a shitty job so far, I fear for four more years should that happen.
