So practically everyone here watched Bush and Kerry "debate." But of those who watched it, did anyone hear anything that made them reconsider their stance on any issue at all? Considering how apathetic and uninformed most Americans are about politics, it would seem to me that the only ones to pay attention to debates between the candidates would be the more politically active ones, who have already firmly decided who they will vote for, and are only watching to root for their side. So do you think either candidate could actually do so well/poorly in the debate to affect the amount of support they have?

I hope so... I really hope so. I know a lot of "undecided" voters said the debates were the most important object towards them making a decision.

I don't honestly know how people could have listened to Bush tonight and still plan on voting for him next month... but I came into the debate firmly entrenched against him, so I'm terribly biased. :p

The debate only serves to make this Jewish-oligarchy look like some form of a Republic. Bush and Kohn could not debate since they have the same position on every issue, so it was just more rhetoric.

For the people debating it? No not really, they already had their minds made up (I'm one of them)

However, for the majority of people (most of which probably aren't on this forum, I've noticed most peopel on this forum have pretty strong views one way or the other) that they were trying to reach with this debate, it WILL matter. This in combination with the other debates.

And I thought Canadians were cynical about politics. (No-one votes because the Liberals have been in power forever. The Liberals have been in power forever because no-one votes.)

Wow, never thought I'd actually put someone on my ignore list, but what do you know?
