My apologies for taking 24 hours to get this analysis done and posted—the universe has conspired against me.
Part of it too was that the debate did not present much in the way of new things to talk about. Both candidates seemed pretty much in the same style as the 2nd debate, both threw around half-gibberish numbers, they poked at one another and criticized one another and generally stayed away from anything substantive or unexpected.
The third and final 2004 debate between the presidential candidates—President George W. Bush (R) and Senator John Kerry (D-MA)—will occur tonight at 9:00 (Eastern). The two contenders will meet at Arizona State University to discuss domestic policy issues.

Second Presidential Debate (iTunes link).
I must say, last night’s second presidential debate at Washington University in St. Louis was much better than the first. President George W. Bush (R) was definitely much more well-prepared and well-spoken, while Senator John Kerry (D-MA) cut back on his repetition and made a lot of good (although, in my humble opinion, wrong) points.
The second debate between President George W. Bush (R) and Senator John Kerry (D-MA) will occur tonight at 9:00 at Washington University. The debate will be covered on most television networks and news channels (I recommend C-SPAN for unfettered coverage).
