Agreed. Kerry took it to Bush, and Bush fumbled throughout, even if he did stay on point - too many pauses, too many "ummm"s. He also made his one solid point too many times about Kerry's indecisiveness. Yes, we know the man voted this way than another, so forth and so on - but Kerry (for once) gave some credible ideas toward ending the war in Iraq.
Nuclear proliferation - now that was some scary stuff the challenger brought up - and real credible threats.
Taking it superficially, Kerry looked a helluva more presidential than Bush - and looks are a big part of these things - almost as much as substance. Bush pursed his lips throughout - not good.
In fact, GW looked a little sickly at times - pale, tired, sweating, maybe - must have been those "mexed missages" he ate.
CBS and ABC say Kerry won this thing.
