...debate was tame, but it was still, as both candidates remarked, "useful." Face-to-face confrontation is much more revealing than arguments carried out days and thousands of miles apart; it also disposes of some of the more obvious distortions. For example, although in his day-to-day campaigning Nixon continues to make much of Kennedy's alleged "I would have apologized to Khrushchev" remark, he didn't dare bring it up with Kennedy on the same stage ready to place it in its proper context...
...many ways typical of the tenor of the whole campaign. Kennedy sat with schoolboy composure, taking notes and speaking calmly. Nixon added to the annals of history's best bloopers with a remark about solving the farm problem by abolishing the farmers. And at Agassiz, three 'Cliffies fell asleep...

But just in case the Kennedy camp was worried about Joe Curran's failure to qualify K.'s kiss-of-death remark, Curran hastened to say, a bit later on TV's Meet the Press, that what he really had meant was that Khrushchev is afraid of Jack Kennedy. In fact, said Joe, "he hates Kennedy." As for Dick Nixon, Curran reported that Khrushchev has only contempt for the Vice President...
