Here's a taste of Americablog's coverage of the debate coverage(smile)
Most of you know the National Review is a right-wing rag. Here's what they had to say about the debate:

National Review SLAMS Bush!
by John in DC - 10/1/2004 01:46:33 AM

Read it and weep, baby:

I thought Kerry did very, very well; and I thought Bush did poorly — much worse than he is capable of doing. Listen: If I were just a normal guy — not Joe Political Junkie — I would vote for Kerry. On the basis of that debate, I would. If I were just a normal, fairly conservative, war-supporting guy: I would vote for Kerry. On the basis of that debate.
And I promise you that no one wants this president reelected more than I. I think that he may want it less.
Let me phrase one more time what I wish to say: If I didn't know anything — were a political naïf, being introduced to the two candidates for the first time — I would vote for Kerry. Based on that infernal debate....
Friends, I have no doubt that this little reaction column of mine will disappoint many of you. I'm sorry. I have called George W. Bush a Rushmore-level president. I believe history will bear that out; and if it doesn't, history will be wrong. I think that Bush's reelection is crucial not only to this country but to the world at large. I not only think that Bush is the right man for the job; I have a deep fondness — love, really — for the man, though I don't know him.
But tonight (I am writing immediately post-debate) did not show him at his best. Not at all. He will do better — I feel certain — in subsequent debates. I also worry that they count less.

When Bush's own people can see how badly he performed, despite their over-arching desire to ignore reality and pretend everything is hunky dori, the man is in trouble. At least I hope. It's in the hands of the American people now. A few broken election laws aside(Florida)
