Brake bleeding

I flushed and bled my brakes last night and now when I brake it feels as if my stopping power was cut in half. The feel of the pedal did get stiffer though, it was pretty spongy before.

Does anyone know why my car doesnt brake as well anymore?

Someone started a thread on this not too long ago, scroll down a bit on page 1 of the 2nd gen tech section, it may be in page 2.
