Chris Mathews said Kerry looked and sounded like a senior naval officer presiding over a court-martial for an incompetent field commander.

1. In other words Bush is doing very bad and Kerry pointed it out. Kerry
was calm and cool and great. He got his message across. Bush was all over the map with answers and emotions. They just don't expect him to be able to talk at all so they think he did good.

3. Bush Is Terrible
After these two debates, I'm sorry. I see no reason for any American to vote for Bush. he is an embarassment to the country.

7. Stupid's voice usually sounded so pompously confident in the past

But tonight, even though he didn't mouthe the same words again, essentially he was interjecting, "What about Poland?", time after time. I liked the way Kerry repeatedly went to the center of the "ring", said something devastating, and then walked crisply back to his stool.

5. Prettty much says it all.
No matter how its spun, Bush was on the defensive, which is ENTIRELY his own fault.

He has NOTHING to offer in his favor.

8. I agree with that
but most of all what I noticed was Bush seeming to yell at the questioners and even in that exchange with the moderator...if that isnt defensive I dont know what is...thats why I find it funny to hear Hughes saying Bush was happy and putting Kerry on the defensive. Kerry WAS like a court-martial lawyer prosecuting a war criminal, because in a sense, that is waht is going on, and I think more and more people are seeing it and realizing we need a strong man like Kerry to take over.
