Debate II
Obviously, Bush improved radically from the first debate. He still is not that polished ("internets") but he basically did as well as a partisan could hope for. I thought Kerry also gave a respectable performance. They both hits the points they wanted to make and the delivery was not such an issue as in the first debate. In this case, I think judging the winner comes down to how people evaluate the platform/promises/philosophy of the candidates, which is really the way it should be. I know which way I lean, but we will have to wait to see how the undecideds lean.
