Kerry clearly dominated, although he could have done better with answering the whole flip-flop charge. He should have stressed the cost of the war(risk-reward) not just in terms of money but more importantly in terms of lost lives. He did a good job of saying that he would be relentless in going after terrorists and that he would be strong but also smart.
Bush did a good job of continuing the strong leader vs. flip-flopper theme, but lost badly when it came down to specific issues. He also got hit hard when he tried to link the Iraq War to 9-11 again. He was on the defensive almost continuously and made way too many long pauses after tough questions/attacks.
