I really couldn’t bear to watch the debate last night. But there were several people live Blogging it, so I read their blogs.
It seems that Bush acquitted himself quite well. Of course, since most of the media wants Kerry to win, they all either said it was a draw or Kerry won. When they say it’s a draw, I take that as a Bush win.
But the debates are not like a sporting event in which the winner of two out of three becomes president. Instead, viewers watch the candidates and decide who best speaks for them.
Kerry may win on points, but the voters may feel more attracted to Bush or vica versa. We’ll see what the voters think over the next few days.
It seems that much of the European press thought Bush won – for whatever that’s worth.
The most recent Rasmussen national poll has Bush at 49.6% and Kerry at 45.9%.
