[QUOTE]Originally posted by Jay the Obscure: [QB] As [URL=http://www.j-bradford-delong.net/movable_type/2004-2_archives/000286.html#000286]Brad DeLong[/URL] puts it: [QUOTE]George W. Bush seems *much* better in the transcript than he was in the debate. His deer-in-the-headlights looks, his I-can't-think-of-anything-else-to-say silences, and his I-have-no-coherent-thoughts pauses are all left out of the transcript. Even so, he looks pretty bad here.[/QUOTE]So: [list=1] [*]It is a legitimate criticism of a debate. [*]It�s only part of the reason why I think Mr. Bush lost. It�s not nearly enough for the President of the United States to go into a public forum and when asked to defend his policy, to simply repeat �it�s hard work� over and over again and expect that to work. [*]I�m pretty much tired of the �poor Mr. Bush, he�s just a bad public speaker� line of argument because to me, his performance in the debate pretty much typifies Mr. Bush�s administration...stumbling, petulant, incoherent, confused, and lacking a solid process.
