Tonight's Debate
I thought Kerry did a pretty good job, although that remark about how "allegedly" people from the Middle East were entering the country illegally was kind of jarring. He obviously has a quick mind and good grasp of the issues, and seemed resolute and confident. Bush smiled a lot more, and was reasonably coherent most of the time, but he didn't answer the questions very often. He attacked "his opponent" a lot, but didn't say many positive things about his record, and I don't understand why voters would believe he is going to do a better job in the next four years. And if he is so darn resolute and courageous, why doesn't he make a clear statement about his view on abortion?
Here in South Carolina the public schools need more money, and the roads and physical infrastructure need a lot of repair and upgrading, but the voters simply want tax cuts, or so it would seem from who gets elected, even though we never actually receive any significant tax cuts as far as I can tell. Will the entire country behave like South Carolina, or are we as a nation ready to act like the more prosperous states?
