I Feel Calm and Confident
which worries me. :Silly:

The last two debates had me biting my nails, despite any public displays of confidence. Of course, Kerry owned Bush in those debates.

I figure my track record of worry is disproportionate to Kerry's success.

So, since I feel so calm about tonight's debate, I'm worried that Kerry might fail.

QUICK - someone say something to get me worried so that I can feel more confident!

Help!

2. I'm a little worked up
but that's because my Astros just took a 2-0 lead in the first inning.

3. I'm nervous but the anxiety isn't as bad as before the first debate.
My husband told me I was nuts because I was depressed before the first debate and full of adrenaline and hope after it.

I told him he was just clueless about what the hell was going on and how important it is to the entire world.

5. I've got heartburn
But I think it's because of the horrible burger I ate earler.


* will find the election in the bag by only talking about the do not call list.


Did that worry you any? It's all I could come up with. :eyes:

6. debate
The Kerry-Edwards team is the clear winner. Neither needs to demand extra time from the moderators because their concise message is based on solid moral principles. They are able to articulate their ideas with great moral clarity and the result has been three consecutive debate victories in a row.

By contrast, the Bush-Cheney tandem features a message that is based on expediency. There is no morality to it and it lacks common sense, pragmatism, and promises nothing more than further erosion to our society. They demand more time because they feel the need to "justify" themselves. This proves that their message lacks moral clarity.

Senator Kerry will win this debate. You need not worry about that. What we need to see is the spin given to the debate result made by paid TV and media reich wing pundits. They will undoubtedly pretend for the all the world that the debate was a tie or they will attempt to minimize Mr Kerry's superior debate skills.

A win for Kerry-Edwards is a win for America!

8. I'm nail biting... but Kerry will KICK ASS tonight!
I felt this way before the first one, and I think it'll happen again. Bush probably think this better perfomance was due to his agressiveness - tonight he's going to go over the top. Have you heard him on the stump this week? Kerry is going to be in control, agressive, and in command of the facts
