I fell asleep half way through. The best thing about these debates is that they make sleeping pills obsolete.

Good thing I TiVoed it to watch the rest, which I did. I thought that Bush would get clocked, because this debate had the same format as the first one. Bush did well, and in absolute terms (not factoring in expectations,) I thought that Bush did better because he came across as more personable, and the American People care more about who they would rather invite to dinner.

Most of the time, Bush did invoke the image of Forrest Gump. In fact, this was the first debate where, most of the time, he appeared presidential.

Again, they both had their moments when they were completely full of shit. The both warped facts.

Now for the bottom line. These debates will quickly become a distant memory because we're now enetering the real stage of the election: spending money on media.
