BuzzFlash Declares Kerry the Winner of Round One
BuzzFlash Declares Kerry the Winner of Round One: He Puts Bush on the Defensive. The Weasel in Chief Appeared to Get Smaller by the Minute.

You knew Kerry got the better of Bush in the first debate when that right wing Brooks’ columnist from the New York Times declared the match-up a tie on a PBS post-debate show. If that smarmy right wing George Will wannabe says it came out even, you know Bush took a shellacking.

From a BuzzFlash perspective, Kerry was crisp, to the point, persuasive about Iraq, and commanding in his knowledge without being smug. He nailed Bush on the kind of specifics that get people thinking about whether Bush is really such a bad-ass in fighting terrorism. Specifically, Kerry brought up two issues more than once: Bush made errors in judgment that led to the creation of nuclear weapons by North Korea and Bush allowed Osama bin Laden to escape during the Tora Bora mission. And like a junkyard dog, Kerry grabbed onto the fact that Bush is doing little to stop nuclear proliferation that might result in terrorists getting their hands on nuclear weapons.

Kerry was never thrown off his mark, while Bush fell back into his smirk at times as Kerry nailed him again and again.
