Kerry won, now stop saying it

I'm all for rubbing their noses in it a little bit but let's not get stuck in a feedback loop on who "won" the debate. Everyone seems to acknowledge Kerry won the debate, now the Repubs will try to spin the conversation in a different direction. Let's keep it on our own turf. Remember, it was universally recognized that Gore "won" the first debate too, but a week later all we heard about were "troubling" aspects of his personality. I have two reactions that I bet most here share and I think they represent the next phase of this conversation about the debates.
- Only one guy on the stage last night seemed like a Commander-in-Chief, and it wasn't the guy currently in the post. It was a shockingly unPresidential performance by Bush (seriously, I wonder if Bush is entirely okay).
- Bush was frighteningly out-of-touch. He seemed to have no idea what was going on in Iraq and had no idea what to do about bin Laden or protecting us from the nightmare nuclear scenario. I doubt I'll get a wink of sleep over the next 4 years if Bush is elected.
