As a firm Bush supporter, I was disappointed in his performance last night. Kerry was eloquent, stately, and stayed on issue. Bush was frustrated, tongue-tied, and defensive.
As for scoring points, I think Kerry scored as many as possible, whereas Bush allowed a few slam dunks just roll on by without so much as a notice.
One thing I was appreciative of during the debate, was that both candidates stayed out of the gutter. No mud was slung, no names were called, it was quite civil.
I just hope in the next round that "W" prepares a bit better and looks to be a little more in the "know."
