And Yet Bush missed several chances to critisize that fact. He missed several chances to draw attention to Kerry's record. But he didn't. He doesn't seem to have those facts. He did not look good. I am so sorry about that. And hope that he will do better next time.

Yes, Kerry is all for us shutting down our nukes as an example.

If this doesn't end his chances for all time then we are doomed.

After all this, Kerry still has not taken a stand and articulated exactly WHAT he would do differently.

He just repeated his campaign slogans.

I believe most will not remember what the candidates said tonight and will have to refreshed with the help of talk radio etc.

However, their mannerisms and ease in making their delivery is what voters see.

I think some "girly-persons" on this thread are Botox Implants from the DU.

Now it is up to the rest of the team FR,Rush, Hannity, Laura, Michelle..etc to send Bush in for a touchdown.

"That sob's finest hour, when he went into kgb hq an destroyed his and xlinton's files!@"-------exactly right! Would to God this comment would be heard over America's airwaves - can you get it to any of the allies in the new media? (Yes I know it is being READ here - but that information needs to be READ OUT LOUD and heard across this country's air waves).

All Kerry is saying is that he'd spend more money better than Bush. That's all he's got. Bush needs to remember that in the next debate when Kerry starts blowing his smoke.

And your alternative to Bush is?

No one! I am a huge supporter. And I agree with many here in saying I personally don't give a dang if he can't debate, I like him as my leader.

I am just telling the truth as I see it -- he is losing the debate.

It dn't mean anything to me. And I will pray it means very little to anyone else.

Bush did not have to win. Kerry had to win BIG. He did not. Case Closed

These debates are always stacked against the incumbent. Democrats claimed that they made Carter look bad in 1980.

I'm dying here too. It is painful to watch.

Agreed. The cringe factor from Bush tonight is very high.

Too repetitive. Too mundane. He could have killed Kerry five times (by my count) and let the opportunity pass.

He's got a good closing statement, but I'm afraid some people turned this off.

Kind of hard not to be defensive when someone keeps calling you a liar. I want to punch that fake orange traitor right in the mouth.

MNJohnnie -- so many here in freepville, like you, like me, know John Kerry has told so many lies easily debunked by simply running "search" strings on FR, on the web. This is what annoys conservatives; but! What appears to make liberals happy is how many lies Kerry can tell; but libs don't see these as lies, and because they don't care about objective facts. They care only about a slug-fest. And Kerry did throw everything including the kitchen sink at President Bush. President Bush wiped Kerry's spittle off his suit-sleeve, and continued on course.

President Bush is a leader. He does not stray off-course. And he will win this election and because no matter what facts Americans know or don't know -- what's clear is President Bush's course to protect us all from harm; to liberate the oppressed; to bring a "global" peace through resolving what has been the HUGEST, THORNIEST hotspot on the Earth. N Korea is next on the burner. :)

" Kerry just did a major face plant, saying he would shut down the bunkerbusting nuke thingy as soon as he took office.

You pessimists were waiting for a screwup, hope you caught that one."

Yes ! I couldn't believe it when Kerry said that.
