AHH! Kerry just pushed one of my hot buttons, when he claimed that
“women’s equal pay is going backwards.” I’ll post a much longer and more
detailed critic. The short version: this is crap, it’s always been crap,
and anyone who uses this number is full of crap.

Interesting, when asked about his mistakes, the Prez says that war
with Iraq and the big tax cut were NOT mistakes. What he did say, was
some of his appointments were mistakes but that he wasn’t going to name
them on national TV.

Closing Statements

Nothing particularly new from either candidate. Bush was much more
forceful and spoke to Kerry’s Senatorial record several times. Kerry was
much more polished, but repeated the points made in the first debate.
Again, I’m not sure if this will change votes, but we honestly got to
see both men and heard them speak frankly. What more could anyone really
want from a debate?

[Another debate? I thought there would only be three total, including
the VP debate. Apparently that's not the case, and this was only debate
two with one more. Well, let's see if I can keep my record going and
live blog all of them!]

Thanks! President George “Freedom is on the march” Bush and Senator
“I’ve got a plan!” Kerry.
