Excellent analysis Tabs. Bush was supposed to have the upper hand on foriegn policy and he let that opportunity get away. In Bush's defense, it's hard to argue with Kerry on Iraq because he's so capricious.

I agree that Bush could have done better, but I don't think it will cost him the election. Kerry still didn't explain how he would do anything different. Kerry made some headway, but only on how he is a good debater, not whether he'll make a good leader.
