My normal loathing of thimble-deep New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd has been temporarily suspended. She agrees with me about how Kerry rattled President Bush in the first debate:

Senator Kerry evoked the voice of Bush 41 to get under 43's thin skin. The more Mr. Kerry played the square, proper, moderate, internationalist war hero, the more the president was reduced to childish scowling and fidgeting, acting like a naughty little boy who refuses to sit in his seat and eat his spinach and do all the hard things a parent wants you to do.
