Or maybe you're just disappointed in your candidates performance.
All of the questions Lehrer asked where vital questions to the state of the nation. If you think Kerry needed to be called on whatever shit you think he needed to be called on, Bush had the opportunity to do it and failed. Senate record? Bush should have brought it up and made it stick (were there any questions to Bush about his business failings, record as Gov in Texas or his failure to do anything about Al Qaeda before 9/11? No. Because those questions are not vital to this nation.)
Bush had nothing, so he lost.
