Elephant In Exile

Bush did much better than the first debate, but I think the pundits will likely have the same conclusion I did. First, the questions seemed to indicate that a majority of the attendees aren't happy with the current administrations policies. Second, the questions were good and Mr. Gibson did a great job balancing the debate. Finally, I think Kerry, who many voters haven't been comfortable with came across as presidential, relaxed and shockingly...somewhat normal. Bush was classic Bush, articulate in ways I wish he was more often. But there are so many doubts about his vision for Iraq and doubts about why we actually invaded and I don't think he put those issues to rest. It will be interesting to see how the pundits spin this... I say...tie, but a tie goes to the challenger.
