Subject: RE: BS: Bush/Kerry Debate II: Who won?
Depends on if any undecided voter was swayed by an answer.
My bid for worst bobbled answer by Bush: drugs imported from Canada
But I suspect hardly any ground was gained by either.
I wish Kerry had taken the opportunity to frame the Iraq war entry question as a question of trust:
"I voted for the authorization to use force since I trusted the President to make the right choice, to only go to war as a last resort. I learned I was wrong to trust him to make the right decisions."
"You should not trust him either."'
But Kerry didn't say this. Oh well.
Third debate may be different--domestic policy only----Kerry's strong suit, Bush's weakest
