Man I'm as disheartened by many comments here as I am with the debate and campaigning in the States. Thunderball, what can I say....
By any real sense Kerry takes it by shear content and answering the questions and actual policy. Bush only takes it if you aren't listening to the words and are subsrcibing to many other ways of deciding, such as how many times you can; like a six year old, bash your hand on the podium, I guess that's strength. Or how many times you can avoid a question perhaps means you're cunning. Kerry actually speaks to each issue, Bush responds to what Kerry says.

Shear content? Kerry has always stated he has a plan. What is his plan? I am still waiting for what Kerry's plan is.
Straight from every debate: Kerry has voted one way for the past 20 years, yet when it comes to telling the American people, he is saying what they want to hear. That he can balance the budget. How? I don't know, thats part of his "master plan" that he is keeping to himself.
When asked about the flu vaccine shortage. Bush answered the question, and gave a clear precise explaination. Kerry just talked americans loosing health care. What difference does it make if 5 million americans lost their health care if there isn't enough of the vaccine to go around? That is one example that stands out. [/b][/quote]
It sounds like you watched the debate -- he said he voted for a balanced budget when Reagan was the President. What's so hard to understand about that?
And all this "he says he has a plan, but he doesn't have a plan". It's a debate for crying out loud, not a powerpoint presentation. If you want to see a plan, go to his website.
Regarding balanced budgets, you want Kerry to prove he can do it but you don't hold Bush up to the same scrutiny even though he's obviously blown it.
I wouldn't try bringing up that flu vaccine business as a point for Bush. Try as anyone might, they can't blame a flu vaccine shortage on the liberal Senator from Massachussets. Although, Bush's first reaction was pretty funny -- "the British messed it up"!
5 million people losing health care is a hell of a lot more serious than a flu vaccine shortage. What you are saying is pretty much akin to "it's okay the house burned down, the owner is lactose-intolerant".
