I was watching "The McLaughlin Group" this past weekend (Great show because it always has two conservatives and two liberals or one and one with two moderates as panelists), and they were talking about the debate. And Pat Buchannan of course said that Bush "hit a home run", but one of the other panelists said that the reason Bush seemed to do so well is that the expectations were so low after the first debate. Basically, he had nowhere to go but up. Compared to the first one where he wasn't at his best (or maybe it was the best that he could have done-I can't answer that), he did do better on this one. So for me, Bush did win, because he wasn't as bad as he could have been, and he didn't embarrass himself as much. Way to go George!!!
