not liveblogging

Was off tutoring tonight, so didn't see the debate live. Just got done watching the video and a bit of commentary.

Kerry was better than I had expected, and much better than I had hoped. But not good enough: although his numbers may improve a bit in the next couple of weeks, the battlegrounds now are blue states, with most of the 2000 swing states just about sewn up for the President.

On the whole, a tie tonight. And now it's very late.
