MKTBUZZ: I left the debate feeling like Bush wasn't on top of his game, but in the grand scheme of things, anyone who has already made up their mind probably wasn't watching anyway.
Furthermore, why the he-- should the future of America be somehow entwined with the votes of those who can't make up their frigging mind? I mean, it's only the undecided vote that Bush and Gore are after, and I think Bush's integrity will see him through to the Presidency.
So I realized that Bush was probably uncomfortable because he may have thought, "Geez, I have to appeal to the undecided. What can I say to make them vote for me?"
He should have just stuck to his platform, taken the opportunities to deflate Gore's ego when the opportunity was obvious, and stayed true to himself. He would have been more aggressive, I think, if he had just forgot about all the people watching and let his true colours show.
Those who are undecided don't have the guts to make a decision and stick with it. They are waiting for a magic message to be flashed across the screen that will help them decide. They have forgotten that the decision must come from WITHIN themselves, not from without.
