I walked in to the first debate disagreeing with Bush on issues, and walked out of that performance utterly disgusted. Leader? Bush disappeared - and wanted to, too. Forget that Gore took charge. Bush let himself be interrupted when Lehrer cleared his throat. If Lehrer had to tell Bush one more time to continue, I was gonna barf. Did Bush prepare? Apparently not. Real ideas?!? Gore knew Bush's proposals better than Bush did. Bush obviously didn't think it was important, or more likely, wasn't up to it. Fuzzy math? Would he care to tell us what and how they were fuzzy? Nope. Too frightened that he might get some numbers wrong (like the whopper about how much more Gore's campaign has spent than his - yeah, right). His "humor"? Yikes! He should take lessons from Cheney. Calculators? Someone get him one. Give me Dan Quayle - at least he stood for something, and would not have let himself squelched like that (again, this is a leader? Whose dictionary?). Face it - Bush is not the sharpest tool in the shed. He got through this one, but he flirts with disaster twice more.
