Now the two cocks have gone head to head I think I can say Jersey is no swing state. It was a little queer looking how Bush was filmed closer to the top of the frame to put him at the same height as Kerry -it would take a similar trick of logic to say he won. He has led with a disastrous boldness but he still has many good ideas. School vouchers, opposition to an autocracy of activist judges and multilateral talks in Korea: these are all good things. Still, it is sad that there was no Republican primary that could have been won by Hagel or McCain.
And kudos to Jim Lehrer for bringing up Darfur. I think we need to aggresively push the African Union to step in, or failing that do it ourselves -I'll volunteer.
