Care to elaborate, RJ? If "their" are people who are "out of their mind", I'm sure you'd jump at the chance to make a solid, well-founded argument with facts to back up your
opinions.

I'm also kinda wondering why people feel the need to determine who "won" a specific debate. I, for one, wish that the debates were more about the individual candidates' plans (on both sides) and not so much bickering about this one's record and that one's faith and on and on...that said, I, for one, still plan to vote Bush in this election, only because I don't feel Sen. Kerry has done a sufficient job of convincing me that he can lead this nation, he's made far too many promises he won't be able to keep, like "we'll allow people 55-64 to buy-in early on Medicare"...yet also he intends to cut taxes for the middle class and only raise taxes on those making over $200k. This sounds like it will work. I may be wrong, but this should be an interesting election.

Kerry reminded me of a curling iron. Bush reminded me of a toaster of oven. I always would rather cook my food in a toaster oven. Translation: Bush won.

Yeah that was my vote. Bush gave very subtantive answers, was able to really hammer Kerry's weaknesses, and looked very comfortable and composed. Kerry spent too much time defending himself, looked much worse than he has in the other debates from a strictly stylistic standpoint, and generally had some very weak answers on a lot of points. Let me know when you are ready to have a serious discussion.

Well, he lied about saying he wasn't worried about Bin Laden. I don't think you can get a "Big win" with blatant lies which the media can instantly call you on ... complete with video proof.

Kinda like claiming you wrote or co-wrote 56 bills that passed. Only 5 of the bills actually passed.

Hey Grey,

President Bush has never, to my knowledge, or his apparently, said he "wasn't worried about Osama Bin Laden". To do so would have been foolish, and even the farthest left of the liberals could claim one could be that foolish.

And in response to Pitt's post, in the interest of not cluttering this board...thanks for actually giving your logical, thought-out reasons...that is, assuming you had any. I'm beginning to see a pattern in many or your posts on this forum...

Instead of addressing the issue I asked of you, you turned it around and tried to go against others who disagree with you...intelligence and class at its finest.

Or saying that the President never met with the Congressional Black Caucus.
