Third Presidential debate: First thoughts

Tonight's debate seemed a lot more fast-paced. Maybe it was better moderated than the previous debates.

Bush seemed to be falling back a lot on mockery and derision. Hardly becoming of "the leader of the free world." He also occasionally ignored the question that he was asked and instead responded to one of his own devising.

My favorite moment was the Bush line about how, in America, people are "free to worship, whether they want to or not." Yes, I know what he meant. But what he said seems to more accurately reflect his demonstrated position.

No airport-style screenings, as far as I know - I missed the first few minutes, but I'll check the tape. And no nudity. Maybe they'll listen to me next time.
