So, what did everybody think? This debate was my first (missed last yr's) and I enjoyed it. I liked how they were both respectful to each other and professional. No sighing, making facial expressions, slouching etc. I can't wait for the vp debates. :) XOXO.

I think you would benefit by watching the debate again with your husband. When you said Kerry was lacking in substance, I was surprised. I thought he had plenty of substance, way more than President Bush, who was tending to repeat himself at times and gave simpler and shorter answers. You don't have to agree with Senator Kerry on his policies, but to say he was lacking in substance isn't the way I saw it. I thought the Senator was very well prepared and looked very Presidential.

Kerry clearly won the debate. Bush was annoyed and on the defense much of the time while Kerry was very calm and on point and used Bush's words against him. I was very pleased at Kerry and he is being declared teh winner by the polls.

BTW, how the heck is he going to fund everything he has proposed to do besides taxing the population to death?


Maybe by not giving tax cuts during a time of war.
